Shocktrooper WIP in Champaign

Post by JohnnyHoliday13 »

Good afternoon,
My name is Bryan, I'm from the Champaign area and just bought my first helmet. My friend actually bought one at the same time. i'm going to be building a shocktrooper. My freind Shane is doing a 501st legion clone. i will be posting pics on this thread to show progress, feel free to critisize if you feel it will help the build.

Nice to see our ranks growing in the central region. There are a couple clones in the area that I'm sure would help you out if needed.

Hey Bryan,

Nice to see you on the boards. The helmet is looking great! I'm in the process right now of getting my clone armor repainted. My current orange color isn't correct. The place where I work has a spray booth and I have our painter trying to match the color for the 212th (Utapau) trooper.

If you need any help on anything, just let me know.

Battle damage is very nice, and well done.
Many bothans died to bring you this post...the tearing of ligaments and almost the loss of a TK's finger...
