Re: New hopeful Shoretrooper, Charlotte area
Good week everyone!
I worked a week ahead in college work to give me time to work on my Trooper all weekend. I got the Chest done and saw immediately that I'm going to need about 3 inches of Shims on the side of the Chest and Torso. Oops.
So if anyone has suggestions on how to do that cleanly and up to par with regs, I would love that, this is my first kit and I'm a bit overwelmed.
I'm mulling over the Idea of changing from a shoretrooper to a deathtrooper since Carolina Garrison now has a Krennic and I am 6'4 already. but that depends on the number of differences in the armor.
Lastly I just wanted to show off my costume to Heroescon 2017. I only had the helmet and nothing else so I threw together something really quick and fun that got a lot of smiles and laughs. Thanks to Vader for the Photo!!

Re: New hopeful Shoretrooper, Charlotte area
Hello everyone!
I've been busy with college but I've acquired the screen used paint and took the time this past weekend to paint everything up!
[quick note, the helmet is missing the blast shield because they are assembled separately, See last photo for image of helmet with blast shield.]



Once the base Coat was done, it was time for my favorite part of prop making, and the main reason I went for the shore trooper grunt, Weathering!


Lastly, a quick comparison between my helmet and screen used, and the Anovos replica

Lots has happened since my last update! I've finished painting, weathering, and 3D printing so now, my kit is done!
There are still dozens of Upgrades I still want to add but it's all together and wearable.
I sent in photos Saturday and I'm hoping to wear back soon. but I'm really happy with where i got.




Hopfully I'll see you all at a troop soon!!

Welcome. I believe I'm the scout in the photo from Heroescon. Good luck with the submission! I'm sure Jason will communicate any minor changes you need to make soon.
