I just don't have that much time right now since I'm taking 5 classes this quarter and I work full time. That's why I mentioned above that it still needs alot of work. Well, actually, it's starting to battle damage already. My forearm armor is already scratched pretty nice. Also a few other parts are starting to get some nice scratchews also. looks good RamZ. i like the front pouches. (scratches chin) something looks mighty familiar about those. lol will prob be really good but maybe get rid of grenade wings. you really look good I know your glad to have it done Considering it took me about 2 weeks to build it from the individual parts, it's the only thing I had to use as my Belt pouches. I'll leave the wings on the pouch as I'm thinking about making mini thermal detonators and carrying them on the costume. I figure this will add a little character. This what it looked like 2 weeks ago (though this picture was taken by Shunned <who sold it to me> a little over a month ago)

Nice job, trooper! This was the 12:01 show on Thursday? How was the turn out? We also did a midnight screening on Thursday here too. Even though I've made a lot of progress over the last 2 weeks, my GM just wasn't ready. There was only like 30 people there. I think there were more troopers than actual people to watch the movie.

Hey what's up? The Turn out was decent. Not many people showed up. I think there were are about 50 people that showed up. About 20 (give or take a person or 2) were those with Liningup.net (including my self). I was the only Clone Trooper in full armor. There was also a TK and Holiday Special Fett. There was a bigger turn out for the 8:15pm showing where it sold out and there 27 just with LAjedi. By the way, I can't wait to see your GM.

Nice job on the suit Ram. As you said, it needs a little tweaking, but it's really great looking so far. I went with a buddy of mine to see it yesterday, but it was sans costume. I was kind of dissappointed about that. Movie was good though. I think the show will be better, but it was good.

I forgot to mention this. I met the writer after the Movie at the 12:01 screening. Some of the lining up guys invited him the midnight screening at the Red Carpet event.
He wrote 22 episodes so far and there are over 50 made already (wiht many more to come). He said most of the writers see what the fans want so the show can appeal to everyone. I told him to include an episode with GMs later on through out the show. He said he was going to see what he can do. So, just like you, I also think the show will be much better.
...Especially watching it on HD.

Thanks for trying to get the GMs in there. I was hoping to see them in it. But no dice. I also finished mine in time for the Clone Wars opening. I went to Erie, PA because it Jamestown did not have a midnight show. Full story and pictures coming soon...

you did a awsome job in two weeks!! Ya the thermal dets could be the round ones like in RoTJ. The seen in Jabba's palace. With blinking lites when you turn them on! That would be cool. Whats a Galatic Marine w/o alot of weapons.

Whats a Galatic Marine w/o alot of weapons. Yup, those are the ones. I gotta figure out how to make them, though. The more weapons the merrier. So far I have the DC-15 Long as my primary weapon, and the shorty as my secondary. Thermal Dets coming soon.

All I see in my mind is all the little kids in that commercial scene from Starship Troopers squashing bugs, with the crazed looney mother in the background cackling and then the one kid says "I'm doing my part too!"...Hilarious.
