Great Lakes Garrison & Base

Amazing work as always.

1) Black undersuit (prefer 2 piece) Target stores have C9 by Champion black compression tops and pants for <$25 each.....they seem to be in-store only and not on the website though. 2) Neck seal http://trooperbay.com/stormtrooper-neck-seals/ 3) Gloves Going EIB/Centurion? Go to the Dollar Store and ...

Approved on Saturday, 4/14/12. Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Finally.

There is a small run on the Legion boards for both belts and buckles ($50/$25) right now...however, I cannot vouch for their quality.

Brian did some adjustments to my Animated Clone using a hairdryer...it worked well.

Awesome.

Holy crap, progress! Helmet is finished, unless I decide to paint the inside of the helmet black: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0103resize.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0104resize.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0105.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0106resize.jpg http...

We're in the same boat.

More helmet progress:

Well, I got some time to work on this after all....helmet painted, helmet rank stripes masked...started masking off for the green areas too....

The holiday season is going to slow me down a couple weeks. I hope to be finished by the end of January though.

Painting day!! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0085resize.jpg The helmet on the left is not really part of this project...it's a Phase II Clonetrooper helmet I'm putting together. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0086resize.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0087resize.jpg http://dl.drop...

Wags wrote:I would. You can add a fan blowing in on one side and blowing out on another. It would give you good ventilation. Do you have any visor material?

Yep, I have the visor material and some black nylon screen for the vents. I probably will not put them in until after I paint.

Got the visor finished, now I just need to do some cleanup on the helmet before painting.



Come to think of it, I may cut out the side vents and actually put screen in them.

Woot! More progress!

Main helmet fully trimmed. Visor will hopefully be finished tomorrow.

Shoes are almost completed (pics soon). Hand plates are finished.

Just saw that post on CTN.

I've got my shoes 50% done. One hand plate is strapped as well.

So, I retrieved a brown, nondescript box from a certain in-Garrison armor maker whom we all know. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0048resize.jpg What could be in the box, you ask?: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0049resize.jpg Another TK? Nope!: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7798372/IMAG0050resiz...

Looks great! Hopefully it'll be a slam-dunk approval!
