Hello! 

This is the start of my journey to the dirty side 🙂

I'm a TK at heart and have a second set of armour I was planning to use, but I wanted to show my love to the police patrols on the streets of Mos Eisley. 

So, I've acquired a few parts and already started to build parts for my backpack. 

Here's a checklist of my kit. 

Armour - RS Prop Masters 

Helmet - RS Prop Masters 

Pack frame - karrimor  

Canteen - Lion Star 600 

Mortar dish - Tupperware 

Sonix 75 - Sandie Comms 

Seed trays - RWA 

Shires - RWA 

Brexton - RWA

As you can guess I've got plenty to be getting on with, I'll probably build most during these winter months and leave the painting until spring time, I'll see how the weather goes... 

Updates coming soon..

Thanks guys! 

Quick question is there a "vendors" list here at MEPD like we have at FISD? 

I'm thinking pauldrons and pouches, who's our goto?

If you scroll down main page to "core elements " you'll find a lot of bits n pieces and where to find

Switching back to some work on the Sonix assembly and trying my best at hand stitching the leather wrap.

It's great to have another Sandie in the ISG. Looking forward to catching up with you Paul. You certainly kept that one quiet.

Just a small update on the lid. I painted the humbrol paints on the appropriate places, I'm not too sure about the tube stripes I normally use decals, but decided to try the more authentic look, I will probably give them a freshen up when the paint is fully cured. 

The weathering can wait until I'm ready to do the armour at the same time.

It's all looking pretty good. The painting looks great and makes it more authentic, that's for sure, especially if you plan to then go on to L2 Police Officer. 

Looking forward to the next update
