Pablo, I'm so proud of being your CO

After my 501st Clonetrooper armor, I decided to build a sandtrooper gear trying to save some money using a FX kit, but adding some extra work on it to make it look better. Don't worry, I won't use the FX bucket! I also wanted my trooper to be a little bit more comfortable than my clone, so I made some minor modifications to the armor to make it fit better. Here are some initial pics: Changing the details on the ab plate (thanks TM for the conversion kit, it's awesome) : Restyling shoulder bells: on the right side is the out-of-the-box bell, on the left side is the bell after the "treatment" Modifying the forearms: I deepened a little bit in upper-inner curve to bend my arm more easily and I trimmed the lower-inner edge to gain more mobility for my wrists. The following pics show only this second modification as I forgot to take pictures of how the upper edge looked like before "deepening" it. More to come, stay tuned :wink:

Merry Christmas!!

Hello there, Thisi is Giacomo, CT8005, Italica Garrison's CO. After enjoying so much building and weathering my 501st Clonetrooper, I couldn't resist the temptation to start a Sandtrooper! So a FX kit is in my garage, ready to start being assembled, a new Stunt helmet along with the pauldron is on its way to Italy and hopefully I'll have this done by next spring. I will post regular updates once I'll start working on the kit. For the moment, I'm sharing with you two galleries of my 501st Clone: WIP: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24266722@N04/...57622718769786/ Finished Job: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24266722@N04/...57622718904400/ Cheers, Giacomo
