Here are some of the pics. Keep in mind he's like 6-2"
-
I took the pictures for him. We'll work on getting more and larger. He's got it all covered. flat green lenses, correct # of ab buttons, knee plate, fabric belt, field pack, tk4510 sandtrooper helmet stickers, hyperfirm E-11, leather boots and pauldron from trooper supplies, soft cloth straps on shoulders.

I have one of the regular in an 18"and it was still a tad snug. I heated it a little and stretched it make it bigger.

Yeah, you're skinny, but any armor should fit you. You got the height correct. FX would look really big. Build the suit to the proper size and pad the inside of it. In my opinion, if you built it to your skinny frame, the armor is gonna look funny. I don't see any problem at all. Better too skinny than too fat. At least you get to do the accurate side rivets without adding shims.

Only 3 buttons starting at the top.

I found goblets at OSH hardware, very similar to the pudding cups. Made of plastic, cut off the stand, turn it upside down.

I wore my TCW Jek and my buddy jeff wore his TD, no pack yet (In progress).
-
You got beat by AWESOME-O ? What a rip off. Cardboard, foil tape, and some dryer tube. I say, tell the stormtrooper to give hima little shove, he'll fall right over. Can't walk, can't win.

Wow! Be right back, gotta go clean my pants. Badazz

Here's a picture of the suit to date. Jeff is at least 6-2" and I think we got a good look. He just won his pack frame the other day, so we'll start that soon. The flash washed out some of the weathering.

I saw your thread a while back and I've been trying to locate one ever since. You did such a great job that I had to have one.
http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?showtopic=4825You sold your MG34 right?
Yeah, long time agao.
-
That's cool. I didn't know you could buy them. I've made a couple out of steel.
-
My buddy bought one.
Got it quick enough. Thin in some places, but I renforced it with brushed on 2-part epoxy. Not for the 1st time builder. Doesnt go together as easy as an AP for sure. No directions, stickers, lenses, trim, Need a good working knowledge of the TD suit before building this one, but they turn out pretty good.

Looks like a Jango arena pack. I'm gonna buy one from MOW for my Rex.
-
Might be the picture, but the light brown looks almost yellow. I like heavy weathering, but I would dab some off and highlight the low area with a darker color.
-
I am completely computer stupid. I think I'm using Windows XP. My PM box is almost empty.
-
having the same problem here. All reply boxes, pm boxes all messed up. I've been trying to get ahold of the green reflective lense guy, but cant use the pm at all.

I won't be going this year. I went in 08' and 09'but it's just too expensive to stay really close to the convention ceneter. I mean short walking distance. I sold that TD suit shortly after last year, but I'm building another for Jeff right now. I'm too big to wear one, and I'm a firm believer in wearing something that fits your body shape. Hope you all have fun. I will admit, seeing a stack of TD's walking through the crowd was cool.
-
Not to mention the resin copy look bent or crooked. The HF are definitely the way to go.
-
Thank you sir.

I've been searching around, I'm build a suit for a friend and need to know the accurate width for the all the strips in the ANH assembly method. Mine were bigger to fit me, he's skinny. Legs and arms please.

After rub-n-buff I like to dilute some rust colored paint, and ever so gently touch it in the all the cracks and around the silver portions.

Here's a couple of me. and my workout partner. Her nickname is *spicey*

His Bee-Stinger is Hyper-Firm, as are a few other parts. In fact, that may be one of Lewis' packs.
They were made before the faucet cover was found and the only decent reference was the Marmit trooper.
Good eye Nate. That is Lewis' pack. I sold my suit to Krenn in October. This is the suit my buddy Jeff was wearing at SDCC this past year in the TD pic with Anthony Forest.
The shoulder pouch is attached to the fieldpack, that black velcro kept it in the proper place, so it didn't flop around everywhere. The shoulder bells do have the arm elastic built into them. Thradio velcros to pack so the TD loop can run inside the radio.

We'll work on getting the close ups. The lenses are reflective, got them from a member here. JEff and "Bountyone" troop together, so we wanted them to match. The knee plate issue I think might be the angle, I was standing on a stool when I took it. We fudge a little on some pieces because of his height.
