Hey there me oul mate cyberpyrot Glad to hear the fine people here put your heart at rest :) Might be a good idea to update the thread heading as I nearly had a heart-attack myself reading it (thinking my own 3mm aliuminium would be rejected). :) Your armour looks superb IMO.

What a great way to celebrate this build. And looks like you didn't need to take off much of the costume (maybe just the helmet?) to enjoy the film :) Love the progress alienbuilder

Hey Stormcrow. I did a bit of research on the boots and the ones I bought for conversion (which will need a bit of work I admit) are as follows. I hope it's something you can find locally. Good luck mate...

Here is one of CyberPyrots posts that got me started mate. It has links and videos. I hope it helps. :) http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f20/cyberpyrots-metal-works-info-thread-making-metal-armor-54766/?highlight=cyberpyrot Most kind killstripes most kind. Looks like I'm stuck on a house project...

I'll try to post some updates in the coming week or 2 on the jetpack build...

Can't believe I missed this comment. Thanks a lot for the kind words. Sure I'm only a relative stone's throw away in Kildare ;) 3D printing is where I want to be sometime late next year. I'd love to be able to print a set of gauntlets instead of attempt to hand craft them (yep you do detect some...

Oh this is just wonderful. I'm still in the early stages of my build but this is just incredible to see. Bravo

Sometimes I find moving pictures can help even better. Check these out if you haven't already Ryan And maybe this will help Rebelscum.com; Star Wars Toy News Archive Sorry I know it's not screen used stuff but it should be quite close

This looks great so far. Enjoying the pics. On that last shot of your dome, you might need to use heavier duty sand paper to cut through the bumps perhaps? Or maybe a flat wood or metal file would help (try it on a non-helmet piece first). I'll be doing the same at some point (working on armour...

This is such a great build. Really enjoy seeing your progress Stormcrow. Keep up the amazing work!

I'm just loving this build. I can't help but keep staring at this pic too. Makes me want to dump my armour build and jump into making a blaster right now :D Wonderful skill mainst69

Ok so because my workshop is essentially my back garden, and I live in Ireland (famous for its fantastic weather) :lol: I only got a couple of hours work done this weekend. Here is the fruit of that. Created the rear butt armour and rounded the front base-cod-plate. I did get some more supplies...

:D Cheers. I just hope I'll be able to "Finish...what he started" "Kylo"

I've just seen your Supertrooper. It looks incredible. I'll be honest, I didn't know of the Supertrooper until I saw him on this forum. Dare I say it, he's even better than Boba himself (he was meant to be the original Darth Vader as far as I know but he became Boba in the end. At least I...

That is a thing of beauty right there. I had a feeling I spotted you and a lady fett in the Dublin Comic Con this year (I wasn't able to make it myself but saw lots of pics). Looks amazing Battrooper well done on the jetpack build!
