Anyone use 850 Armor Works out of Florida?

Actually I do have an account on there haha, I went to it and it signed me in. Big duh moment over here.

Hi Josh!

That's so cool! I'd LOVE to pick your brain if I could possibly impose on your experience building these kits. I live over in Mint Hill off 485 and Thompson Rd. I'm ordering my imperial surplus kit this week actually, if they are in the shop-I thought I read something to the effect of April being spotty for them-). And as to posting the kit build I hadn't thought about it, this was my first step at trying to get with the 501st

Thank you so much! I'm gathering approved odds and ends before the big armor purchase from Imperial Surplus. Then I might struggle a bit haha

Hello everyone! My name is Josh and I'm a huge nerd. Haha I'm a fireman in Charlotte, NC, a veteran, and despite those 'serious' experiences, I remain easy going and mellow.


I've done a myriad of complex cosplays on my own, known a few 501st members, and always wanted to apply but just never had the time until now-I'm considering retiring.


I endeavor to make a Clone Wars phase II, or season 4-7, grunt trooper. Specifically Tup. I would absolutely LOVE it if I got accepted into the 501st to participate with you all after I finish with the kit.


Anyway, hello again, and May Skirata Be With You,



Josh
