Vader55th Introduction

[vader55th]

I guess it would help if I posted my intro in the right thread.....apologies...Hello. My name is James and am currently in the Cloud City Garrison. I've been kicking around the idea of building a snowtrooper for some time now. I've done the research in regards to what maker I will purchase armor from, currently ordering boots and decided to go with the cold weather pants from our local army surplus store. That brings me to the duster. I've looked at the various makers on the vendor thread here and like the Ivory look opposed to the white. I have a co-worker who is a seamstress on the side and I am wondering, Is there a pattern somewhere i can download or get from someone? Just curious. In conclusion, I am looking forward to taking on the challenge of building my snowy and am sure i will have plenty of questions in the near future.........thanks, James
