  4. Good thing Lucas didnt right any scenes with Vader on Tatoonie or Prowse would have probably passed out in costume during shooting.

  5. The Portumac Belt Boxes can look really nice once accurately modified!!! Just wish the size could be modded too. lol

      The Boxes Porty Uses are actually a bit smaller in length. But I modded the aesthetic details to be accurate to the ESB/ROTJ Boxes. It really hides the size very nicely.

      Hrm, wasnt aware they were smaller. What about depth? I guess thats what really made me think they were big.

      Its the depth that is larger while they are not as tall.

  6. Its a nice feeling knowing you actually did something on your costume, and not just buy and wear all parts

      I hope I get that feeling some day. I might build my own belt boxes and chest box one day. But I'd like to get trooping first.

  7. Just got back from my first troop. It was easy and tame...was a nice to get a feel of how trooping operates.

  8. My first troop will me March 3rd and its a Disability Funraiser at a school.

  9. is cursing at Yahoo right now!!!

  10. One of my pet peeves: Somone starting a thread/discussion or project....I read the thread and find out there is no closer to the discussion or project...I cant stand that.

  12. Quick Q: Would Auto touch up paint be able to fix small chips on the bells where they meat at the plate?

      Probably . . . if you used auto paint on them to begin with. Just make sure you're using the same type of paint.

      Its Portumac Armor..finished by Portumac

       

  13. I was looking throw the sith lord members on the 501st site and ill be honest. I found a lot of the Vaders subpar looking in my opinion..Would they be older Vaders when the standards were different years ago?

    1. Fett263

      Most likely, you have to remember a lot the high quality parts didn't exist back then. I think as the props improved so did the standards. Having been around back in '98 there were a lot more "homemade" costumes when we first started, now I think it's gone the other way with way more skilled prop makers providing most of the pieces.

    2. Arcturus1020

      Arcturus1020

      Yeah, I haven't sent in new photos of my updated Vader to our GML yet. I think it's probably that way for a lot of people.

  14. Someone said on my facebook that the GMLs who approve the costumes have not life for bein g strickt on the costumes >.>

    1. Arcturus1020

      Arcturus1020

      It depends greatly on the GML I guess and how familiar they are with the costume(s). <shrugs>
