  1. Well, here goes! I have been working on my little guys TD armor that I purchased from Walt. I have been taking photos along the way while I have been building and just now put them into photo bucket. I apologize I have so many at once. I have been trying to build this as accurate as I possibly can with what is available. I can't use traditional strapping as I want to build it so he can be in it for a few seasons. This is for all the dads and little dudes out there that want to be on the bad side!


    Lots of little parts showed up at our house and I had a very excited little man.

    Mini hand guards and the smallest back plate I have ever seen.

    I ordered next this little move along pack from Dirty Boy-Thanks brother!

    Eyes, Teeth and rivets in the bucket ready for ear trimming and fitting.

  2. Sorry fellas on the late response on the little pauldron and T-21. I bought them from Quartermaster on whitearmor. He had them from his son and I am not sure who made the little T-21 but it is pretty awesome. The pauldron is one of Panda Troopers and I purchased a mini move along from Dirty Boy that is just amazing. I have contacted Pandatrooper about matching spanish pouches in miniature. I will post a bunch of photos very soon on all the progress on it. This is the third set of armor I have built and I made it to police officer standards. I know he is only five but what the heck. If I am doing it, do it up! Here is a quick photo of me sizing little man up for the thighs.

  4. I was wondering if I needed to do something to get access to the site other than signing up. I received my 501st TD info. Thanks for the help

    Cheers,

    Tim

    Edit. Sorry I found the thread and posted the information. I am a bone head

  5. Hi guys. I am sorry for the wait. I am still waiting for my GML to give approval. I apologize for jumping the gun on deployment, I was not sure how the process worked. I hope I get approval soon. I just finished a new TK and recieved EIB on it. I am hoping I can bring this armor to swat with all of your help. Thanks for all the help and I should have aproval soon.

  6. @ Tim - Excellent looking armor and gear, Brother!

    But, before we can proceed, you have to get your official TD designation. Your current Legion profile has you listed as TK only. Please contact your GML to make the update so we can continue. :td: :thumbsup:

    Got it! I sent the photos to them and await the 501 approval. Sorry for juming the gun! I had converted my original TK to this and did not do this in the right order and I apologize. I hope it looks ok and we will proceed as soon as my GML gets back to me. Thanks for the help
