are those the tube stripe decals that came with the NE helmet? do the tube stripes look a little thin?

one of the best looking NE helmets I have seen built... well done!

if you can get the TKboots that's the best... but your second one listed looks OK. also could try http://www.landsend.com/products/mens-fulton-chelsea-boots/id_259060

i can not access the sandtrooper section of the forums either.

teeth look OK to me. you MIGHT take just a tiny bit... like half a millimeter more out of the teeth holes. eyes look fine to me dont worry about the ears

i think the ears look good take a closer picture of the teeth, but I think you could trim just a little more out of the teeth

how about pinstripe around the grey part of the ears? a little too much grey for my taste on the frown (makes it look like lips are painted, instead of just the teeth)

that looks like TKboots to me

Thanks! I am slowly working on the pack. Once that is done, will try to get deployed!

i think the lands end is good. I would defer to input from one of the command staff, though. Clearly the Lands end boot is more accurate than the Bass Amsterdam that many are using from Amazon.com

i love that trooper http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?showtopic=11048&hl=

I just got the good news from my GML that I am approved as a TD! I still got a long ways to go, Next step for me is working on the pack. I got a few parts painted this week.

just got my TD approved! http://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=10879 can I get "sandtrooper" access?

I would leave it as it is. looks good to me. We have a saying in surgery - "the enemy of good is better."

I think you can glue a strip of scrap abs to the inside of the helmet to cover up that gap. Also, when you put the ears on it might cover that gap a little

It is amazing to me how clean the armor looks in the photos. I used Fuller's earth and it looks nice and dirty in person..... I might add a little more, but I don't want to over do the weathering.

got a little more work done

I don't know on the lands end

awesome

What?!?!?! I figured that would for sure be needed for SWAT

is the lower tray always 5 ribs and upper tray always 3 ribs?

How do you all paint the plain latex handguards?
