ECOLI Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Ok, So just an update I have my nomex gloves that came in Thanks to all who lended their feedback. I have semi-modded my EFX lid with blue stripes, cut out the grill, painted the teeth grey. I am waiting on darker green lenses and will soon be refoaming the inside. My next issue is the Boots where to find them. TKboots or Caboots none seem to have any in stock in my size--which is unfortunately Mens most common size of 9.5-10. I use to be a shoe salesman back in the Albuquerque/Tattoine region. Any suggestions, or just be patient. Soon, I will be ready to cover this naked trooper.

ECOLI Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Oh, One more thing I found a great tutorial on FISD on how to make a home made T-21, where can a person find styrene in sheets of varying thicknesses. Thanks Guys soon I can hopefully post some photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Hey Erik... Wait on the TKBoots. Don't by CA Boots. That's that. Where do you live now? I'm in ABQ and a friend of mine and myself are planning on making a couple (at least) of the T-21s based on pandatrooper's tutorial. If you're around here you could get in on the process with us.

pandatrooper Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 You can buy sheet styrene from pretty much any hobby / model shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECOLI Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 In Ref. to Nols ? I actually believe you are the person who led me to the VA garrison where I am stationed, but my home of record is ABQ and will actually be home for the holidays. Thanks again for sending me in the right direction I have been busy since about a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may get in on that process with you guys Nol, been thinking about using his tutorial and building one myself. I have one of Dutchy's T21's but it has not held up well to trooping at all (esp. considering it arrived to me damaged in the first place). It will need replacement and his really looks good and would be fun to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
