Update 12th December. My mum has been an absolute angel again and made the thigh pockets for my KST pants. and in more detail.... Darren

Congrats Kevin. Loving the weathering

Very, very nice Dan. Hopefully by Easter I'll be able to troop mine alongside ya mate.

Cool pic of the helmet. Keep up the good work trooper

Here's a tutorial of one of mine Ski. http://galacticmarine.myfreeforum.org/about7.html Darren

Welcome Charles from another prospective Kashyyyk trooper. Daz

Well, my armour parcel arrived from Mr.B yesterday I had my sticky paws on it for ten minutes then my wife took it all away to be wrapped up for Christmas ( bah Humbug...!) Roll on Christmas, can't wait to start on that gorgeous helmet.

I make em' but won't be doing a run until Easter time next year. Woodchuck makes cool ones ( search for him on CT.net )

Hi Dimitri. Email sent to be added to the run list. Thanks Darren

Welcome from one budding KST to another

I used a large bucket to dye mine in. I left the camo in the dark brown for the whole required time, but when it came to the black dying I took them out after about 20 mins.

Cheers for that buddy

Superb build and some excellent pics. Nice

Please mate, that would be cool

Can you let me know the shop Nath. I gotta have a pair.

Nice one Ski. Gonna show this to my wife so I can get the thigh pockets done shortly.

I'm with you on that one. Cool design.

Aah, cheers Nathan, that helps me too

Cheers mate. That's what I was thinkin

What do you guys think about the cut-outs on the soles of these boots? Any good? Also a question. How easy will it be to put high top boots on after the shin armour is worn? Darren

Nice work. Great detail shot of the laid out cummberbund. It'll help me when I come to start one. Darren

Oh man, I'm so jealous. My MB armour is ordered and I can't wait to get started. Nice weathering

Yep my fingers will be crossed too

Not yet Ski. I'll probably start sourcing materials for that next. Update 19th October..... Really happy with how the dying of the camo's has turned out. It's near as I'll ever get to the screen cap of a CGI Kashyyk trooper. Thanks to some needleworking from my Mum the shirt now has a hidden velcro fastening down the front, a "racing suit" type neck closure and shortened/narrowed sleeves. Basically the shirt is done ( I think ) The pants need the pockets making and attaching to the front ( rough position marked out on the photo ) and the gray inner thigh patches adding. Two questions guys, what size are the front pockets and what type of gray material is most suitable for the inner thigh fabric. Darren

Cheers Nathan. Yeah I'd love the contact for the gloves mate. Thanks Update..... Second stage ( black ) dying done. Only left them in for 15 minutes as I didn't want to loose the camo pattern. Darren
