Hey guys/girls, I'm new to the forum but have been interested in making my own set of armor for a few years now.

I'm looking to build my first set of armor now.

 

I seen a Kashyyyk Scout Trooper and knew that's what I wanted so here I am.

 

I've been kicking around here for the past week checking it out and seeing what people are selling because I will need everything.

 

I guess what I need most though is information on where to get the best/better supplies or even pieces of armour.

 

Anyways anything helps, thanks in advance.

the CRL? CLR? w/e it is for standards on the kashyyyk trooper seems to be expanding recently so look into that first. other then that, armor is maybe available from K&B when its done and bikerchick when she gets her runs out. soft goods we are kinda in limbo for. but people are working on it. im redoing my gloves this weekend. the cummerbund has a thread out there with measurements on it, thats the best we got right now. ill be tackling that soon myself. for a blaster go to clonetroopers.net and look for woodchuck he does awsome work. just got mine from him, boots are part hard armor part boot. try looking into the standards and maybe repurposing a pair of old tan combat boots that im assuming you own due to your picture. nice base for gloves might be the black leather cold weather dress gloves.

Just kidding.....

 

I've been trying to get more people to become a Kashyyyk Trooper, since I became one in 2009. B)

 

Welcome to the extreme madness of the Kashyyyk Trooper!

Thanks guys...

Chilledmilk, I will start looking into all of that, (yes I'm in the Canadian Military and have a few sets of tan boots around LoL);

Grumpy I've already talked to you through PM and thanks for the quick replies;

& HeatShock your the first that I got in contact with and you pointed me in the right direction...

I'm glad I found a good knowledgable group of people that have a similer interests.

 

I've checked the CRL on the 501st already but it was incomplete but I just seen we have a "very nice and indepth" CRL here on the forum so I will be going off that
