I love this part:) I was never thinking about being SWAT, always more into making more personal and unique costume. For some main goal is to make super screen accurate costume and I respect that. It's not easy, but for me, especially according to trooper armor, its about to make it different. That's why I joined Red Rain and Skull community. For me it match perfect to sandtroopers roots!
For me is not making modification of the costume/armor, but to add other parts, which will make you different than other (at the end, we are not clones, but from the other side, clones tried to personalized their armor a lot, not to look like their team mate).
Now, I'm working on leather kama.
I'm happy with my bad *** Rostwortrooper armor, but I didn't forget that at the end I'm Sandtrooper.
One is for fun, the other for duty:)
