Great Lakes Garrison & Base

I’ve never built a Scout Trooper so can’t help with your construction details, but since you were asking about Scouts besides Silverfox.... I know off the top of my head there’s 2 Scouts on the west side of the state, 1 Scout up north, and 4 Scouts that are all at various stages of building their co...

Scott M. (look at the moderator list on the Blizzard Force board: http://www.blizzardforce.com/forum/ )
....makes sticker sets for the ATA Stormtrooper helmet cheaper than Trooperbay does. He charges $10 shipped.

Don't kill me cause I'm just trying to help, but notice on your right knee ammo boxes, you have them bolted low on the plastic onto the thigh armor, with the longer plastic side sticking up above the front of the thigh armor. On the real suits, it's the opposite. The long side hangs down below the w...

That picture is awesome, Derek.

These will serve you well with getting the costume proportions close to the real suits:

Very good weathering job. Fuller's Earth is the best for Sandy's! At least that's what I am seeing on that pauldron.

That RULES. Add the "gonk gonk" sound effect and he's good to go!

That's the first Tusken I've EVER seen to use the Biker Scout flip-up method. Wow, I like your approach on this.

It's pretty close to a Boba Fett vest, but the velcro closure is on the front side instead of the back side if I remember correctly.

That's a strange looking Stormtrooper costume.

Nice work, Chris. Looks good.

That is one cool looking costume. Great job!

If I was holding onto a 45 pound barbell plate and stood on a scale, I'd weigh as much as Ripcode.

Like Biker Scouts?


That's cool David is making those. Neat idea, I think!

Well done replica of that artwork you just posted!

Yeah, but Squadleader asked which of the many Vaders we have are the most active at trooping, currently. You can't be actively trooping if your costume isn't done yet.

All you need to remember if doing that method is leave a little more visor material on the bottom when cutting the visor to shape, so it'll hang below the opening a little more so people looking from the side can't see in.

Another tip when gluing in the visor. Don't glue it all the way around. Just glue the top and some down the sides. Let it hang straight down and not 100% flush with the bottom. This way you have a little slit of ventillation and people can't really see it if installed well.

Could be, I saw he has both an older and the brand new Camaros.

If I was Vader sized, I'd jump on that deal in a heartbeat. Never seen a decent one listed so cheap.

If it's the one I'm thinking of, not an engine repair. He just bought a new Camaro. INCREDIBLE price on it, though.
