  1. That E-11D looks awesome, well done!
  2. Both weapons look great! Gonna look really good with a bit of weathering
  3. Looking forward to the progress and pics in this WIP thread!
  4. Very informative and love the pics that accompany it, great work!
  5. I love the feeling you get when it is all put together and you see the finish line. It looks awesome!

    Sounds good! Going to be so great to be done.
  7. Yeah that funky proportion on the jumptrooper canister is where I saw it stuck at lol... That older process is what I had heard and I think in some sections of the 501st website it still is worded that way even though we don't really go by that anymore most of the time. SolidScrafty had his TFU Shadow as well but I'm not sure if he even has it anymore.
  8. @Fivezero that is a interesting texture for the knee plate, it is almost like they forgot ? I still see a raised edge on the cod piece, would have to be molded in (harder) or a gasket. @Blackwatch that sounds good to me and makes it more feasible for others. Are we thinking of allowing this L1 as either ANH/ESB/ROTJ and then L2 would have to be ROTJ?
  9. You may be able to swap to ammo pouches to hide any gap on the upper parts of the thighs and lower the thighs a bit as well. I'm not sure you'd have much of ability of raising the shins unless you Velcro'd them to the boots so that they sit a little higher. I'm 6' 2" so I understand where you are coming from, except I just left the gap.

    The coin is sickkkkkkk! About how far out do you think you are? Gonna be awesome when you get to suit up for the first time
  11. Very nice and great job on the helmet! Definitely don't want cloth in there as you found out. Some nice fans will really move the air around for you too.
  12. I definitely agree that some of the very specific stuff could be L2 for it. The gaskets around everything like RoTJ makes sense because I believe a lot of the video game characters follow that. Some of the other detachments have the ability to go L2 tied to RoTJ armor specifically and allow ANH/ESB to improve numbers...but I also see to keeping it unique and a challenge as well.
  13. Agreed, @CrookKnight you can go ahead and send the rendering
  14. Looking at the CRL pics I think the thighs are supposed to be a little offset where the tabs are. I like the progress thus far and the cautiousness on it too. Better to trim a little than too much.
  15. Wow, that is a wild gun! I hear ya on the cold, makes it not fun if you have to do it in a garage or the works. Definitely get the pieces together for the thighs I'd say and then figure out how much to take off the top and bottom so that way you don't cut it too short.
  16. I'd agree on the measurements above, but I'm not majority. ?
  17. Haha damn, everyone I know is having 3D printer issues lately. I think the printers all talk to each other, damn that AI!
  18. I third Walt as well in this. If he can't do a pull for some reason Trooperbay has some as well in the "Parts / Specialty Items" section.
  19. I know what @Blackwatch is saying, creating like a rail/mount system with it and maybe even supplement with some Velcro in some spots to keep it on the hanger. I'd have to see if I have a pic that could demonstrate that. I haven't had to use that yet on anything though.
  20. That TU unit looks good with the compound replicating the chips.

    That is awesome! How long that take to print? Looks great.

    Haha so many different ways to get the job done!

    Haha I've heard that using a 1-2 primer filler has been helpful to others in my garrison with the 3D prints.
