Hey there!

If anyone can give me some good links/websites/suppliers, etc for purchasing the following in either ready to go, or kits, I would appreciate it! Good quality, but not necessarily really expensive.

-E-11 Blaster
-TK gloves, belt, shoes

Thank you!

Hello there and welcome!

I don't know much about where the best places to get boots, belts, and gloves would be, but the FISD would be a great place to look around, if you make an account on it, if you haven't already, you can look through the marketplace and see what people are selling, I think a few people are selling some belts and gloves on there currently, not sure about boots. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Regarding E-11's, I know a lot of people like the Hyperfirm E-11's since their really tough and invincible, you can contact them here https://www.facebook.com/HFx-Production ... 386576227/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or on the FISD as I think as he also advertises on there. Other than that, I don't know, I got my E-11 with my commission from RS Prop Masters and its really nice, but it probably isn't very durable compared to a Hyperfirm, I don't really want to test it to find out for obvious reasons, but they do make a nice blaster, http://www.rspropmasters.com/product/e- ... r-blaster/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, it seems their out of stock currently however.

Paint or decals: on the TK helmet, who prefers paint or decals?? I like the idea of painting, but since I have NO talent in that and don't want the lines to be all squiggly, I am thinking decals would be neater. Thoughts anyone? Thank you!

Hey man, wow, coming right along.

I prefer hand painted. I start with a pencil and draw the traps and tears, frown outlines. Then paint the black outlines. Third I paint the gray in leaving a nice even black pin stripe. It really gets easier as you go. Put on some smoothe jams, and get in the zone.

ANH had hand painted details. ESB and ROTJ had the decals, so screen accuracy would deliberate which version.

Who did you end up getting your armor from? That seemed pretty quick. Good luck, holler if you need any help.

And Imperial Boots are great.

TK boots also.

RS can supply boots too.

Hi Drew,

You may have set a record for how fast you received your armor kit and for getting it ready. If you need anything moving forward, don't hesitate to ask someone and you can always contact me. I'm looking forward to you getting approved and to troop with you in the near future!

Thank you for that! Let's just say I haven't had much free time that wasn't used to get this ready. I have never done anything like this, and it was a lot of hard work, but so much fun! I look forward to being an official member of this great organization and trooping with members like yourself!

Thanks again!
