[MP40 shoulder pouch question]

oh? okay thanks juan! was wondering if it was or not since it's hard to see in some of the reference pictures I'll just spray it black before I use it then.

[MP40 shoulder pouch question]

My bad brothers I tried to circle the part I'm talking about in red but it's really faint. I meant the leather strap sticking out in the same side as the kit pouch. The kit pouch will looks good when I put blocks in it

[MP40 shoulder pouch question]

Do I need to cut this off to make it accurate? If so, how did you guys do it? just cut it where it meets the seam?

[Happy Birthday iconoclasta_88 Juan!]

Happy Birthday Juan!

[I'm in Star Wars Insider!]

congrats! looks beastly

[Attaching Ammo Pouches]

To mount the pouch to the waist belt, here is what I did. I removed the angled leather straps by cutting all the thread. I then straightened them out vertically, used a piece of leather under each end, about a 1" square or so, to raise them off the pouch, then put in a rivet at either end, of both straps. This makes just enough room to slide them on the belt and hold them snugly and was a pretty easy way to do it. Been that way for over two years now and still going strong.

I can post a pic if the description is unclear.

I like this way you described, but i dont have the leather nor a means to rivet through all that haha. I'll try asking my outpost if they have anything that could work like that thanks!

[Attaching Ammo Pouches]

not sure if this was what he meant, but for my question is was the hip pouch. The canvas MP40 pouches are diagonal on the back so it'd rest crooked on the hip if you use those loops. How do you fix that?

[Attaching Ammo Pouches]

bump for this, i was thinking the exact same question a couple days ago

[Drink a beer from R2D2s head]

[what armor choose ? ATA or AP ?]

I'm not experienced but I ordered ATA since they have a sandtrooper kit which includes the diamond sniper plate and different ab plate.

[Small Spanish pouch]

that is a hard choice indeed.

Maybe you can ask trooperbay what maker they use for these. http://trooperbay.com/flexfit-personalized-imperial-cog-hats/

[screen grabs of catina captain?]

Thanks Fellow Nick! This is extremely helpful haha, thanks for the link!

[screen grabs of catina captain?]

Hey everyone I'm working on making the cantina version captain and having difficulty finding screen captures of him. I have three so far but they only show chest and up. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks!

EDIT: realized i missed a 'N' in my topic us jawa folk arent very literate in english.. hence the change to TD

[So I made a target for TD's while I wait for my armor.]

LOL thats amazing. I have to save that one.

EDIT: took the liberty of using your work nick haha

[So I made a target for TD's while I wait for my armor.]

My first costume for 501st approval I need to do my weathering for final touches, but so far my GML and outpost think its great! No way could I wait 3 months before trooping haha, but don't worry I'd much prefer to be the shooter than the target when I get my armor!

[Finally got something I always wanted]

I'm jealous

[Fellow troopers, i kindly ask for your assistance...]

thanks for the kind words marcus, she was my first and best friend throughout my childhood. the pain of loss is huge, but nothing compared to the years of love
