Re: Patiently Waiting to join (Bolingbrook, IL)
Welcome aboard sir! Good luck with your armor build! If you decide on a E-11 as your sidearm, I just finished building mine from a Doopydoo's kit, so send me any questions you may have. Or if you'd like to friend me on Facebook, I keep an "Armor Diary" where I post pics and updates on my builds. I'm...

Re: First build. Looking for help/suggestions.
No snowtrooper experience here either, but I built Cody sans instructions, so I might be able to help you along the way.

Darthikari's E-11 build
Hi troops! While a TK is in my long-term costuming plans, my finances currently are keeping it just out of reach. I decided in the interim to start off building my E-11, and then go from there. So far I've scratch-built my animated DC-15s, http://i1083.photobucket.com/albums/j387/darthikari/DSC04241...

Re: DH-17
I'm doing a conversion of a hasbro blaster right now. She may not be 100% movie accurate, but I've managed to lengthen the body, adjust the scope position, and re-build the trigger assembly. Hopefully I'll be able to piece together a tutorial once I'm done.
