opi wan Posted April 25, 2013 Author Posted April 25, 2013 Yes I think it is the best choice for real leather only 34 Euro inlusive shipping Felix took the last available pair I hope they look the same. Quote
rhapsodyred99 Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 This is one of those things I would like to do for accuracy sake, but for trooping sake, it just makes more sense for me to use my TK Boots. The general public is not going to get why you have cracking and flaking paint on your shoes, they are going to think you are just lazy. Not to mention its much less stressful on you to not have to repaint your shoes all the time. (my real latex handguards for my hero/stunt TK have to get repainted about every other wearing, which is why i went with Karin's white rubber for my sandy, did not want to go all out to weather the things jsut to have to paint over it and weather it again....) Still, I like to see it done for accuracy sake, but i'd keep those otheres for trooping in mate. Quote
inglorious trooper Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 i know what your saying frank, to be honest the only part on my boots that wear is when the shins rub against the boot, which you dont really see,other than that the paints held up well,fingers crossed!! Quote
opi wan Posted April 25, 2013 Author Posted April 25, 2013 I really love the look of painted Boots when the white color disapear on some parts. I even love the look of a weathert TK armor. I dont like the sterile clean look of TK boots or totaly clean armors. Quote
