  2. Hello Roger, as @Hausi says, it's been very quiet lately. For what reason? Unfortunately we don't know either. Many members register to have level 2 or 3 approved and then unfortunately you don't hear anything anymore. I hope, of course, that this will change again in the near future. The whole thing is very unfortunate. We also noticed that the Sandtrooper was and is a very popular costume. The number of approved Sandtroopers has increased. I hope, of course, that this will change again in the near future. That the interest in the forum increases again and more construction reports or pictures of Troopes, Foundparts and much more are posted.
  3. It looks much better photographed like this. The color looks appropriate. Thank you.

Gray-blue color is recommended for the color of the backpack parts to meet the screen accuracy requirements. Battleship gray or RAL 7031 is recommended. It looks very light blue on you. Please change that. I know debates on color vary, but the default for it was set a few years ago. Otherwise the pack looks very good.

Two small things to change and your trooper meets the requirements for level 2. It's just two small things, but when they're changed, you're even closer to the original movie. Otherwise your Trooper looks great. Best Regards, bigwam
  5. the same with the northstar: opening and cable available for installation
  6. Wow, another variant. Absolutely great. Thank you for your report.
  7. Hallo Susanne, versuche es mal mit postimages.org Grüße und schöne Feiertage Thomas
  8. Hi Malte, the mimban is a great character. I also like this trooper. You showed a great construction report, it's always great to see how a costume is made. I noticed two things that I would have changed: I would have closed the gap in the helmet and made the forearms a little smaller. So they stick out a lot and twist, as you can see in the last picture, they always twist a bit. I would change that (also the shoulder bells) so that that doesn't happen. This allows fans to see the insides of the costume, which takes away some of the illusion. Regards bigwam
  9. The Command Staff wishes all members of the MEPD a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2023. The last two years have been a bit quieter, so now it's time to get back on track. We wish everyone some nice Troops next year. Above all, fill the forum with life again: post pictures of troops, construction reports, found parts - everything that belongs and fits to the Sandtrooper topic and that comes to your mind. Enjoy the few days off, maybe one or the other is on vacation, stay healthy and above all stay as you are. Post a few Christmassy Sandy pictures here in the thread, we will then also publish them on our Facebook page. Happy Holidays and show the world we're still here! bigwam
  10. Awesome, one of the best if not the best presentation I've seen here. The Trooper is also absolutely top class. I congratulate you on this TD. Weathering, backpack, details... Perfect.
  11. 70. Concert in Weissenhorn, 26.11.23. Not the best pics ...
  12. Hi Mac, That was a typo, already done. Thanks for the hint

The CRL (which we are amending accordingly) says Canvas or leather. Nevertheless, as in the film, it should be canvas. For the hip we recommend a leather Pouch that is similar to a Stolla Pouch. Leather MP40 pouches were not worn in the film, the CRL is a bit ambiguous - will change accordingly after the review. Or you take a spanish pouch.

  14. Hi Mac, welcome here in the MEPD! Regards bigwam
  15. Hello Lukas, I am happy to read from you here. It will be an interesting post for me, especially since I did SWAT on the same Trooper. SWAT is a worthwhile goal, stick to it! I think the gap is ok, it shouldn't be bigger than 1/2" inch. You can still reduce it if you take the right, wide belt. I'm looking forward to your progress, keep us posted! Regards, bigwam
  16. Hi Heather, The only requirement to create the cards is to have Police Officer status (costume standard, level 2) or SWAT Officer status (costume standard, level 3). Since you don't have a backpack yet, you will still have level 1. Here you will find the requirements for the application to become a Police Officer (Level 2): I saw the picture of your first troop, you can really see the joy in wearing a TD! Having level 2 is a step up, so you're even closer to the original. Next step, Heather, build a backpack and submit the Level 2 application. Then you will soon find a picture of yourself in the gallery or one of the PO trading cards. I would be happy to see your application for Level 2 here soon. Best Regards, bigwam

    Congratulation, you never forget your first troop! Regards bigwam
  18. Hi, you can use one "9Volt Block" or four "Mono D" Batteries.
