toddo[TX] Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Welcome Mauri. I'm not sure what you mean by starting this project with illusion. Are you building a Shadow Scout? Link to comment

izzi[TX] Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm reacquainting myself with all the new information for projects myself. I kow there are other builds happening at this moment as well, so be sure to check those threads out to see if they have the resources you're looking for. Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Ok!!! Thanks a lot for all!!! Link to comment
THE TROOPER[501st] Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Got some bass amsterdams from amazon. Perfecto !! Also heres a good place too.. imperialboots.com Hope this helps. Link to comment
Jokr[501st] Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 For a shadow SCOUT? Looks perfect for a Shadow Trooper, but the Scout uses a boot. The tutorial here is what seems to be the most recommended one: http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=903 I need to get the base-boot, then try it out. As I haven't even gotten the armour yet, I'm in no rush. As it WILL get quite hot here in a month or 2, I'm waiting till then to wrestle the vinyl to fit. Link to comment
THE TROOPER[501st] Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 oops...thought it was a black hole trooper Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Thanks!!! I´ve read all topic here about shadows... Very interesting... A thing that is not clear for me is the material of the boots...The CRL says vinyl but is that leather like material? Is it the same? I show you a photo... Do you mean that?? Thanks!!!

Mauri[501st] Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Hi again! I have come across these boots in my house... What do you think??? Do I have to release the laces??? Thanks! Link to comment
toddo[TX] Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 That material looks fine to me, and those boots should serve as a decent base. Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Another thing... I´ve seen these gloves in eBay... Can they serve??? I know as long as I release the strap... Link to comment
toddo[TX] Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 And the laces? My boots have laces inside. You can do either way, but I like to be able to tighten my boots a bit. Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 Thanks!!!! As for the vinil, in the CRL says "Slightly textured vinyl is acceptable". Do you think mine can serve? Link to comment
toddo[TX] Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Thanks!!!! As for the vinil, in the CRL says "Slightly textured vinyl is acceptable". Do you think mine can serve? Yes. Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks! I take note! Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 Hi again friends!!! Today I´ve received my armor and helmet!!! I have some quiestions about the CRL... As for the helmet, what,s the fish-hook logo and the manufacturer one? As you can see in the photo, the part that can be elevated (helmet flare?????) has a kind of curve... Do I have to correct it? How??? Thanks a lot!!! Link to comment
Mauri[501st] Posted April 28, 2015 Author Share Posted April 28, 2015 Another question... Any idea about how to hold the thermal detonator to the belt? Clips? Where to buy? Thanks again! And about the helmet no problem. It's going to be changed... Link to comment
