Thanks boss

[Aradun]

Looking forward to hearing the good news! Good luck brother!

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Cheers Dennis. For everything 

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Apparently armour is checking with GCO ( who took the pics and seemed happy ) that the gap where I lifted my arm up and lifted up the clamshell is going to be an issue or not. 
 

Either way after talking with GCO we’d already decided to add Velcro to clamshell and bind to secure them ( and by that way the vest ) together to stop movement 

If stood still it wasn’t there.  Is what is is and any fix needed has already been sorted. Dont mind the wait , been long enough anyway lol

 

[Retrofire]

Sounds like a minor fix. You're doing fantastic! Take care of the little things and we can't wait to hear the good news!

[TreeHuggerMatt]

As suspected. Need to do some more pics once the additions have been done 

it’s mostly just for the pics but it was on the cards anyway and already has been done. 
 

Just need to sort one more thing out and can resubmit 

 

wish you lot were closer haha

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Ps too late to do a mando?

 

😂😂😂😂

[TreeHuggerMatt]

So   Got the boss to help get kitted to to hopefully avoid a bit of a drive at the weekend   
 

More pics taken and uploaded to the garrison wip to hopefully submit  

Here’s a cheeky action shot   Excuse the rh drop box , it ain’t that low I caught the belt as I moved lol

 

😂😂😂😂

 

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Here goes nothing..be kind lol

 

 

drop box length isn't correct in pic as belt was caught..

 

shouldn't be an issue 

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Ahouldn’t make a diff for approval but will be tweaking the drop box strap length so low closer to belt as per crl pic

Can do that by folding it over itself inside the drop box and then securing it to itself.
 

 Easy 

[TreeHuggerMatt]

As I couldn’t switch my brain off to get any sleep. Cheers brian

Just done this now. Belt now glued and secured with tape whilst it dries

[TreeHuggerMatt]

Just heard news have been cleared by the garrison armour and GML and I am typing this as the new recruit to the ISG and the 501st as an ROTJ biker scout

Ladies and Gentlemen of the empire 

 

May humbly introduce myself as TB-41036 of The Imperial Scottish Garrison Tree Dodging Section

 

yeah , had a bit of a happy cry

 

THANK YOU ALL throughout this very very long journey  , especially @Aradun , @Retrofire and our fearless leader @BikerScout007

 

Most of all I would like to thank the anonymous pathfinder(s?) who very generously offered to help with my commission as I was trying to deal with my mums serious health issue last year.

 

I wear this costume with pride and honour and cant wait too get out there and hunt me some Ewoks

 

My ID choice was easy.  My late father's DOB of the 6th of March 1941.

 

I hope he is proud

[Aradun]

Woohoo!!!!  Congratulations Matt!  I can't begin to tell you how happy I am for you.  It's be a looong journey my friend, but you've finally crossed the finish line!  Proud of you bro!  Now go make us proud Pathfinder!

[Chopper]
