Hello dear deathtroopers !

I'm very fan of the deathtrooper and i decided to make the armor

Actually i had painted the helmet, but know i look for the armor...

I know that we have 850armor works and jimmiroquai. I prefer the 850's armor (someone have pics ?) but i would know if we have prop maker in Europe ? With the same quality ?

Thanks for your answers !

Welcome to SpecOps! You also have the ArmoryShop which is based out of Moscow. Good luck with your build and feel free to ask questions!

Hello deathbrother !

I post some pics to my following of my DT.

I've got a SE-14r, it is a 3d print but the details is very good, do you think that i must paint ?

And i have taked a Dr. Martens Talib for the boots.

I think i order later the undersuit to "Dark Closet", one of you recommand his work. Have you some opinion about ?

Hello everyone !

I have order finally my undersuit to DarkSide Closet, and know i search for the glove.

Do you think that a leather glove is ok or it is better to take the glove with leather just for the 3 finger ? And wich vendor do you recommand ?

sorry for my english xS

[Woodo007[TX]]

Hi Tom. Myself and lots of others have gloves from endor finders. Very comfortable and accurate gloves

Hmm. Think I have seen some on Etsy. I am not a fan of bubble lenses as it distorts my view. I use a cut to shape welders mask from amazon. Shade 5. I found the curve of the mask worked well for the curve of my helmet

Hello everyone ! 

I have just received my e11D and gonna finish him But i have a question about the Gloves : Do you think that Higlander gloves works too for the DT ?

Not according to crl mate.
Only thumb and forefinger are leather, however the highlanders middle finger is leather
Here the two together for comparison

The endor finders gloves are really awesome and very comfy

Oh okay thanks for the comparison

[Tomtrooper[501st]]

Little update for my DT, e11D and underduit are now arrived but for the E11d, what can i do for the 3D printer effect ?

[Woodo007[TX]]

Hi Thomas. Is it the print lines u mean? If so then they need sanding, filling with a spray putty or body filler for deep gaps/grooves then more sanding. Repeat this over and over until lines gone and u have a smooth surface. Or possibly look at using xtc-3d, although I couldn’t eat along with that stuff
