Scootch[TX] Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 For the ammo pouches you can use zip ties, just drill the back of the pouch and zip tie through and around your belts. Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 On my hand plates I have a strip of elastic glued to the bottom part so it wraps around my wrist and I have a black hair tie ring cut down and glued to the top so it wraps around my middle finger. I have total movement of my hand, I can shake hands with people and not have to worry about them falling off. Awesome, worked like a charm this weekend Link to comment

izzi[TX] Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Looks like it's ready for approval review. -iz Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Looks like it's ready for approval review. -iz Thanks Iz. think I could squeeze by without the seal if I've got one coming? If so could you PM me with how to get through the process? Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 No, you have to be wearing the neck seal during the approval pics. You might want to think about making a temp one if you or some one you know can sew. They're pretty easy. Just send those photos and a bucket off pic to your local GML and they'll make sure the pics get in the right places. If you don't know your local garrison you can look them up here: http://www.501st.com/members/displayUnits.php And be sure to fill out an application here so the GML can approve you as soon as he's given the okay: http://www.501st.com/members/join_how.php -iz Link to comment

ACJay[501st] Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH hmm.. too much. Oh by the way my neckseal just arrived and I am taking some pics for approval. I won't post any new pics till I'm approved. Just imagine the last three pics with no brown neck showing and you'll have a good idea Link to comment
defiance7x13[TX] Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Great Work man! These nova's are really turning out nice! Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Nice... But I still want pics! -iz Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 If I must Here's everything I sent to my GML except for one bitmap I made in paint showing me mirroring the card pic Nova with the captions "Seperated at Birth?" Can't figure out how to get it posted Ah well, the last picture shows my rudolph action going on. I gotta adjust my temporary helmet padding so I'm not smashed up against the faceplate So many nitpicky details. Armor really never is finished only an eternal WIP Again, everyone for all your support and IzzI for the pioneering of an armor that's taking SpecOps by storm. Here's to many many more Nova's in 2011 Wish me Luck Edit: Face shot removed for occupational reasons Link to comment
bscheff[501st] Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Good luck Acjay, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't get approved. Link to comment
izzi[TX] Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Very cool. Should be an easy approval! -iz Link to comment
Darth Agnon[501st] Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Looks great! and has anyone ever told you that you look like a young Sansweet? Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 So... Update? Well everyone's probably noticed I haven't been on the forums that much recently. I have been researching my next project (Fem-Mando) non-stop. It helps pass the time while I wait to find out if I am the newest approved Nova. But as of this post no word yet. Link to comment
bscheff[501st] Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You should probably follow up. It takes a long time to get your TX number, but it shouldnt take this long for feedback. Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Here's the "fun" pic I couldn't figure out how to post earlier Uploaded with ImageShack.us Still no word Link to comment
Darth Agnon[501st] Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I still say you look like Sansweet...... Link to comment
ACJay[501st] Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 I still say you look like Sansweet...... I can see it now Sansweet cuts off one of my gold armored hands and says "Jay, Ho..ber... I am your Father..." Link to comment
