Good Luck with getting a Stormrider interior... he makes small runs and they tend to sell out really fast. As far as the visor goes, get some lexan and car window tint and make your own, cheaper and faster than farming it out.

Do the mando first and build/hone some skills before tackling a Clone, if you are scratch building. If you are dropping the $ on a CT vac formed kit, it won't matter what you do first. Just keep in mind that a custom mando is cheaper to build and less expensive to re-do if messed up than a CT...

Hey bud.. send them a PM about it.

Thanks Novall for your clarification on the Mercs Policy regarding Minors. As I said earlier it is unfortunate for the under 18 talent but the age requirements are there for a reason across the board. All is not lost however since You CAN post here and over at the Mercs board. It is not as...

I didn't go into the rule that permits minors to post when their parent or guardian is also a member because it seemed to not apply to you. Yeah the Mercs allows minors to post and that has caused some issues in the past and also keeps alot of people from talking to them now. Not to mention that...

gonna have to make it yourself out of Lexan sheet or a clear faceshield and automotive tint. There's a guy on ebay that sells alot of tints by the foot, for somewhere around 1.65$ if I recall correctly. however this thread really needs to be moved from the clone armor section now, either to...

And due to liability issues, You may sign up when you are 18. Pretty simple really... It's not even a rare occurrence for costume clubs to insist on a minimum age of 18. You cannot become Official at the Mercs if you are under 18. You cannot troop at an official Merc event unless you are 18...

I used Mat board from Michael's framing section to do all my helmets with, ~7$ a sheet and I need 1 and a half sheets for an Adult helmet. Figure 3 sheets will do both of you Helmets, a can of bondo for ~15$, bondo spreaders ~3-4$, a thing of fiberglass resin ~18$ and a roll of drywall tape...

okay 2 layer cardboard won't bend, it will crease and look like ****. Cereal boxes can work but you'll need to fiberglass the hell out of them. You could use a jigsaw, heatgun and a 10' 6"dia PVC pipe from Home despot for some serious plastic armor. The pipe isn't very expensive and will yield...

muahahahaha the game hasn't released yet, so unless you have an in over at Bioware good luck getting the game models. I've been working on a SWTOR BH for awhile now and it's slow going. The concept art doesn't transfer well to real people. He can pretty much forget that for a budget as tiny as...

There is one in the Boeing Museum of Flight in Seattle. Somewhere I have at least 50 close up shots of that Bahama Mama, including the Crew Signatures in the nose Landing Gear Well. But I'll be damned if I know where they went, we moved twice since then... They also have two separate cockpits...

I'd try acrylic paints in shades of brown. dilute with water and "tie-dye" your stuff in different shades of brown. it's acrylic so you can wash it out some before it sets and it will fade with every wash. it's not do one thing or the other... try it all. get some color in it, then drag it...

waaaaaaaay clean bud, airbrush some dirt and crud on that.

Dude you dropped your pock.. shoulders! Anyways, cool stuff... wish we had one of those around here that I could take my Daughter to.

umm I sometimes wear one of my buckets to class for the sheer hell of it. It's always fun to collect some high-fives or weird looks from students and Professors on the way to lecture. I usually don't bother to fully suit up, but at least wear a club shirt with it. I have fun and the Mercs get's...
