I purchased these nomex gloves off ebay to use with my plastic hand plates for trooping.. best part is proceeds also go to a charity for the blind.

Nice! Thanks for the tip. I'm happy to support a good cause.

I managed to beat Jim Moser's score of 3 attempts at making a neck seal with 5. I also ended up using his method for making it rather than the tutorial I previously posted so props to Jim and his build thread on FISD. I will be referencing it plenty once I get my kit from Walt.

I got one of the Black Series buckets just for fun and to stick on my wall next to my other buckets. I had heard bad things about the voice changer and since I had 0 expectations I gutted it without even trying it out. Seems to me with some additional mods it could work fine for a Rogue One kit once those get made.

I also bought a Rubies E-11 as a temporary place holder until I can get my hands on a Hyperfirm later this year. Put some layers of Hammered Black spray paint on it earlier, this weather isn't helping it to dry.

Got an order from TrooperBay incoming with his bracket kit and canvas belt along with other hardware and paints.

That's it for now. Next post will be when my Big Brown Box arrives next week and the real fun begins.

My box from Walt came today. Didn't expect it until Thursday so I'm quite surprised at how fast it arrived and hand delivered by Boba Fett with an Imperial Escort no less.



So much for homework today.

When I heard others talk about being afraid to take it out of the box and being overwhelmed on where to start, I was like that's nonsense. I totally understand now.  :shock:

You got this Riley! One step at a time. It can seem overwhelming, but totally worth it.

Thanks James! I'm starting to label stuff and then will get to trimming. Slow and steady but not too slow as to miss Rogue One.

Having a problem identifying and pairing the shins. The 3 on the left look similar but the one on the far right is longer and shaped differently on the bottom.

A public service announcement: cut gloves are important. If your hubris tells you that the 2 seconds it would take to put on your cut glove right next to you is 2 seconds too long, tell that hubris to shut up because blood isn't on the CRL.    :oops:

This! A million times this!
My kit had way too much blood on it during the trimming phase.

... I was totally going to comment that your legs were reversed..... But yeah... I figured it out, being a total genius and all.

It's coming along great!
