Post by kenthork »

hello blizzard troopers, i'm happy to join you :D
i'm in 501st from no longer time with my TD, but the first armor i do was a TS, i'm not really happy with it so i do a TD and i go to you today because i want to do again a snowtrooper but very accurate now. i come back to my first love! :lol:
so i search what is the better kit for it. the kit i bought the last year is the same as the first picture.
i hope you can help me in my search.

i also join pictures of my first and second version of my armor.

First of all, welcome!

Your armor source...since we cannot reveal names on open forums. But suffice it to say, your armor was pulled from very poor molds and the quality shows. The armor maker has neglected his bucks for so long that the pieces come out looking very soft and lacking much detail. We do not recommend this type of armor if people inquire, since there are much better looking sources out there.

Hi kenthork

Trooper Peter from MEPD forums here. :wink: A belated welcome to Blizzard Force forum. If you can get MEPD Deployed, then making an accurate "real snowtrooper" costume is certainly within your means. :)

My pleasure Jerome. :wink: :D I'm sure you're looking forward to your new TS armor kit. Look around you'll find fellow 501st Legion members who serve the Empire in Tatooine and Hoth. :wink:

No it will be only my second set of armor, in fact that both photos higher are with the same set, I just made modifications (duster, opening eyes, helmet, and many more.....)
