Great Lakes Garrison & Base

NP--good luck with the build!

Those are the ESB handguards.

I think I found some at Harbor Freight before, but definitely better choices online. Here's a link to one of the two sizes I got:

I believe that place accepts money orders too.

LOL! I did have white tape around too...

Crud. Sorry, forgot I changed the names...

Ripcode helped me do a tape up of my armor today--I'm really really happy with how it looks. What do you guys think?

Very big grats, Anna!

Looks great, Anna! Good luck with with the resubmit!

Sorry I missed the original post--looks great, Mow! Any plans for a third costume?!?

It's been a little while since your last post. Any progress yet? Or are you still staring at a pile of plastic on the floor wondering what you got yourself into? :lol: Slow progress, man. Work has been kicking my butt (in a good way though). Freelance is usually either feast or famine... But yeah, ...

LongShot, I haven't watched ANH for a couple of weeks--the rebels always win anyways, and they take way too long to do it! :mad: Just keep plugging away, man--I'm sure we'll be trooping together soon. Let's shoot for a LongShot premier, maybe a double one. Anything else, and I may have to stage a tr...

Whoops, Lumpy--sorry I missed your post. Non pretty interior duly noted, but I'm not sure I can overcome my obsessive German nature...

Doesn't have to be pretty, since it's all interior Haha, you don't know me very well yet--even interiors must be pretty! :P Thanks, will put it on the to do list, though I doubt that anyone will be able to see through the green lens material I just got--I sure can't! ;). I might tackle this later w...

Hey Crimson, I was hoping no one would notice the abs plate orientation before I fixed it this morning! (I discovered my mistake late last night and was just too tired to get everything back out again.) Also, will do on the handguards. :D Will look into painting the bucket interior black--not sure h...

Haha Eric, yeah I'm not sure what I was thinking! What's one more hour though...

Also, I cropped my images a bit more, so they shouldn't be clipped on the forums. Looks like a 652 pixel maximum width.

Thanks, I will definitely be careful with the glue... Thought I would post some blaster pics too. As tempting as it is to sand and repaint it, I'm going to just add the D-ring to the Hyperfirm and just call it done for now because I don't want to start too many projects. Eventually, I would like to ...

Forgive the late posting, but I got a box on Monday! I've been busy getting my tax paperwork together...ugh. I'm sure that most can relate to the anticipation that lead up to this moment. I had been waiting all last week for the box to arrive. It only had a short journey from Canada; it was only abo...

I had a great time--thanks for having the party Lou. LongShot, good to meet you and your wife too, man--keep rocking on that armor. It was really cool to talk to you guys, even if I got a little spacey from those paint fumes! :D Squadleader, good to see you again, sir. And Tonka and Zod, many thanks...

I'd like to come if you don't mind a newbie future TK hanging out, meeting you guys, asking too many questions...
Eric

Ok, thanks man. Those are some really good ideas.
