fett-bobafett Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Comments welcome. We are trying to get approved to troop the AIBF this Saturday morning. I need a little more padding in my biceps. Here are my pics:
fett-bobafett Posted September 27, 2011 Author Posted September 27, 2011 Here are Todd's pics: Knees have been cut down. Need more velcro to hold them in place better. 1
Bloodclaws65 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Looks awesome ! Great looking kit's looks like we are going to have 3 Kashyyyk scout's in New Mexico .
mrbungle Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 looks good, guys. but smile when you take pics!!!!
Heatshock Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 looking good guys, nice to see a couple trooping together. colleen - tbh, you look a little small for the cossie even with the mods, but the overall look is convincing enough. You cant always have everything eg I am a little fat for my KST! small point on both yours and Todd's box placement. And it is small mind you. In the front, the distance between the smaller rectangle box and the longer/taller box looks a little wide. And the from the back, the spacing between the letter shaped boxes looks a little wide. As no fixed CRL exists at the mo for this cossie, I cant see it as clearance issues though. Good goign both of yer! Nate
fett-bobafett Posted September 30, 2011 Author Posted September 30, 2011 Here are some of my new pics. I cut down the shoulder bells, the biceps, and the forearm armor, as well as the shins. Being a 95-pound, 5'6" weakling, makes it hard to look tough in armor. I already padded my shoulders.
Grumpy Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Looks amazing, Colleen! You and Todd look great!! Well worth the wait. And, just like the camo paint style, not every Kashyyyk Trooper will be the same. Cheers to you both. The two Kashyyyk Couples will have to meet up sometime. Perhaps C VI?
automaton Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 That looks great!! Yet another costume to add to my list.
Boba Leo Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 That looks great!! Yet another costume to add to my list. Yes Alex I´m agree with you!!!!!!!!! oh sorry Colleen, looks much better with her smile, congratulations!!!!!!!! Leo 1
Bloodclaws65 Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 Report From Albuquerque New Mexico . First Time 2 Kashyyyk Scouts at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta . This is the Biggest Balloon Fiesta in the World . Also this is Todd's first official Troop with a crowd of 100,000
fett-bobafett Posted October 3, 2011 Author Posted October 3, 2011 Thanks for posting the pics, Joe! Todd is approved. Does anyone know what number he is, in the BARQ approvals? Is he #18? He is CB-6864. I'm still waiting for the higher up folks to get back to my GML on critique vs. approval for my costume so I can hopefully troop the balloon fiesta as well. By the way, I lowered Todd's "A" boxes on cumberbund. Does anyone know how to get Plumber's goop off of fabric?
LENOX61 Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Awesome pics. Way to represent the KT at the festival. But......most importantly.......CONGRATS on getting approved!
Grumpy Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Does anyone know how to get Plumber's goop off of fabric? Don't really know of anything that would get the goop off of the fabric without damaging the material. You could weather it with a little bit of paint, mist it with black, and call it "battle damage." Yep, Todd is number 18. Are you approved yet?
fett-bobafett Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 No approval for me yet. No one has gotten back to my GML about my costume after I made the changes. I forgot about everyone trying to get costumes done for Halloween as I can't think past the balloon fiesta at the moment. I have family in town from Maryland and the balloon fiesta was canceled due to rain when we tried to go today. That leaves tomorrow morning as the last event for this balloon.
Heatshock Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Congrats to Todd #18! You wear it well mate. Colleen, you 2nd set of pics were looking gd, cant see a problem with clearance! Nate
BrotherHalo Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 FYI, our GML gave Colleen approval the night before the last troop for the Balloon Fiesta. I helped him look it over and couldn't find anything that was glaringly obvious (Colleen was so meticulous with her Fett and Aurra Sing). Plus we have two other Kashyyyk troopers in the garrison to compare against, so she was golden. Considering how slight Colleen's frame is, she wears it really well!
