JuiceBox's Security Trooper Build

[TonyJuiceBox[TX]]

Good evening Spec Ops, after last weeks episodes of Andor, I finally convinced myself to get a security trooper. 

The plan is to start with the base costume while we wait for the CRL site to be fixed, once that's done I plan to make the Ghorman version with chest, bicep and shoulder armor. I'm also considering making either the riot helmet, or the regular helmet.. we'll see what happens. I plan to make the E-11b and potentially the zap rod if I make the riot helmet. 

 

Sources: 

Hat/Tunic/Pants ORDERED - Jim Tripon. He's done great by me in the past, and I trust his process. Plus seeing what he made for Pyro, it seems like a good option. Price is a big factor too. 

Belt Boxes HAVE - From BaileyBuilds, I actually already have a set of these for my ISB, but to my knowledge I can't use them anymore if they're painted, so I got a second set. 

Belt HAVE - Purchased from Wampa Wear about 2 years ago, still stands up very well

Belt disc HAVE - Also from Bailey, I plan to swap it out on my buckle. 

Boots HAVE - KeepTrooping, I absolutely love all of my keeptrooping items, good price, good quality, relatively fast shipping. 

Gloves HAVE - Keeptrooping, same as said about the boots, these are actually lined with something really soft, love them! 

Armor EMAIL SENT - Imperial Surplus, good known maker, fairly expensive but good quality. I opted for "option 3" with the shins. New Era Andor Armor Kit (Seasons 1 & 2)

Riot Helmet Files DON'T HAVE - Considering these that Pyro posted, looks good to me for a quick glance. Riot Trooper Helmet (andor) STL File (download) - Etsy

E-11b files HAVE - Already had these from GA, not sure if it's 100% accurate or not, but I've printed one before (sold) and it was a very painless process. E-11 Blaster - 3D Print Files – Galactic Armory

E-10.5 files HAVE - Gotta go digging in my etsy, I purchased them way back after Andor S1 and never actually printed them haha! Link when I find it

Zap Rod files DON'T HAVE - Also post by Pyro, again looks good to me but I don't have enough experience to say for sure if they're good or not. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/zap-rod-from-andor-series

SHIELD DON'T HAVE - This is gonna be a tough one. I've been looking at the excellent thread by Karo, and I'm thinking of 3d printing my shield. I only have limited knowledge with CAD but my goal is to be able to have the parts interlock for easy gluing, along with hoping and praying I actually have the skills to pull this off. We'll see. I tried making a coruscant guard clone shield before, but realized I bit off more than I can chew with that one. (Now thinking back, If I use my 3d printing Idea I might be able to pull it off.. too bad I don't have my clone kit anymore!)

My uniform is from him and it’s great. Pants are a bit tight but I needed to loose weight anyways lol. Looking forward to seeing progress!

E-11b

Finished my build the other day, the smell has finally gone, and I would say it turned out great. Still need to paint the ejection port silver, totally blanked on that.

 

 

Belt Boxes

Finished these as well, I think they also turned out great!

Hey guys another update here, Galactic Armory dropped these files ISB Tactical Armor - 3D Print Files – Galactic Armory today. Wanted to get your guy's thoughts on them. They look fine on my quick glance, but I don't have time to give it a complete look over. Thanks!

I know they don't have the corrects shoulder bells for this costume, so I plan to get those separately.

we have been green-lighted for the Tactical Armor agent, and will proceed to break it down.

Question for ya. I was looking at the specialist requirements for this costume. I know the CRL's are currently locked and so can't be updated, but will the "Ferrix" weathering still be required now that we've seen them on Ghorman? I need to wait until I receive my uniform from Jim, but it seems his Andor army trooper meets the requirements, would that be the same for this costume as well? 

[Blackwatch[CMD-DCA]]

Good question, and it will either become a new tabbed variant, or recieve a new CRL.  Ill review with Staff. Im inclined to add verbiage to cover the "green" newbie  Ghorman troopers who had brand new armor, but also riot helmets and sheilds.

I'd say just another version of this to include the riot helmet version. The riot shield would probably follow the weapons clause and be optional.

I've found these files, at a quick glance they look good to me, any thoughts? Riot Trooper Helmet (andor) STL File (download) - Etsy

PIVIOTING! I still plan to make v2 first as I won't have the armor before I have the uniform, but I also plan to make both the riot helmet and standard helmet. I think I'll go with Riot first since I don't yet have a source for the standard helmet but can start printing the riot one shortly.

BELT SETUP

 

Simply my Wampa Wear belt, with the correct sized/colored belt boxes added, along with the correct code disc mounted. Nothing much more to say than that.
