Hi everyone! I'm from France, my name is Diana aka Daennika on other forums, and since I'll be hanging in here for some time, I figured I might as well introduce myself!
I joined the 501st Legion in April 2011 with a Biker Scout, which was soon followed 6 months later with a Stormtrooper (ANH Stunt).
We all know biker scouts can't walk.
My brother TK 54321 on the left, and myself on the right at Celebration VI. You can see that I'm quite short (5'3) and stubby for a TK. But it's still my favorite costume when I'm trooping.
Now why am I here, you might ask? Simple! I've always liked the Galactic Marine since the moment I saw a glimpse of them in ROTS. Although I wouldn't make a typical clone trooper costume, the GM would be the only exception. Also, who doesn't like to wear some burgundy/maroon now and then to change from the black & white?
And yes, I do love the idea of wearing a kama even though I never wear skirts in real life. Moving on.
I've read a few build threads and looked at a lot of pictures, but I sincerely doubt I'll find an actual list of armor providers here like I did with the Pathinders or with the FISD. It seems to me like this particular costume is a challenge, even for "experienced" costumers like myself
Joke aside, the TB and TK outfits practically put themselves together when pulled out of the box. When checking out this forum, my confidence in costume-building really took an arrow to the knee...
So yeah, I'll have to learn, learn, learn... and prepare to actually make my own armor pieces at some point instead of whipping out my Paypal wallet.
