Nah Sands, it's gonna be a clean white marshmellow (PUFT MAN!). Ab buttons aren't on yet, and the ab and kidney plates aren't riveted together quite yet. Plus shoulder straps, and buttons to hide the rivets on the belt, and drop boxes but then I can see the end, I am so pumped to finish it!!!
Many bothans died to bring you this post...the tearing of ligaments and almost the loss of a TK's finger...

I traveled down to Arkansas and visited my buddy that I joined the Legion with he just came back from Italy. This was at the end of the night. It was a good time...

Went out with a few friends for Freak Fest on Street here in Madison...

The highlight of my night was when we walked past a person playing a saxophone and as soon as they saw me they began playing the Imperial March.

Found some other Star Wars Characters as well.

WOW! BankyScout, Bassclarinets and I went on State St 4 yrs ago (before it became a corporate sellout on Halloween) and I wouldn't have recommended going out in armor. Banky lost a T bit and the aerator from his helmet, as well as had other damage to his armor due to the "jolly partygoers."
Judging by your pics, no damage.

We went pretty early in the night when there weren't so many people and most of them were sober - so no harm done.

I'm assuming that's directed at my Stealth Suit?

I worked Dang hard on that thing, I've got a few modifications that I have to do before I submit it, which all hinges on when I actually get to be home for more than 2 days, and not work those said days, then turn around and travel for more work...

/Sigh.

I love my Stealth, can't wait till I'm fully happy with the small in-consistencies that I have to square away.
