I also think it's very nice.

And I like your weathering better than the other guy's, as I said in the Shoutbox. ;)

Get it done! If you have any questions, let me know.

You bastid. I think I went up to you and complemented you on your armor. Didn't even say hi.:D

Nice armor (again)

Finally a smaller guy has worked the build!!

Quick word though if you go for 501st approval I am pretty sure they will ask that you remove the leaf on the bell or at least have a spare bell that does not have one.

RCs are awesome although everyone thinks we are just another clone. Should change with the Clone Wars showing some love this coming season.

This guy, duh! :p

I'm only comparing you to another of the same costume. ;)

Seriously? Doh!
Don't know what you look like, so... I blame you :P
Did you at least get a photo with me?

Hehe, thanks!
The Legion Membership Officer (Thomas Spanos) even complimented on how well I had padded it. :D
Like I've said to some other people, you can pad up a skinny guy, you can't pad down a fat guy :p
Heard about the leaf thing already, it's just a vinyl decal that can be removed if need be.

Oh haha, that's my friend... He's also the 3rd member to join the 501st and designed the original patch too, he just wasn't active much for many years due to lack of 501st up north here...
I got him hooked on Republic Commandos so he finally got to meet Albin in person while we were down in Orlando.

Nice to see a smaller guy do the costume....we have a full Delta Squad here in Michigan now, and I believe are the only Rebel Base to have one....not sure about that though. I was told by one of the guys in the local Garrison that the commandos were much bigger than the regular clones, and that the armor would look funny on me.....since I'm only 5-9 and 175lbs....

Null arcs were bigger due to the Kaminoan's attempts to enhance the Fett Genome. The Null's were considered a failure and such further enancements were not done.

You should be fine, I'm 5'8" and 130lbs LOL

501st has a problem with the width of my thigh armor, so I need to reduce that at some point if I want approval.
Other than that, I'd say I did pretty good for a one month build.
