TK Keith

Benjamin- did you put velcro on your chest armor to keep the robe in place? I've been trying to think of ways to keep the robe from sliding open.

That's awesome- congratulations!

Looks great! Any word from the LMO?

Nice job! Good luck on your approval. Be sure to let us know what you hear!

I emailed him Feb 26 and he got back to me a few days later (March 4.)

Any idea when you will submit for approval, Benjamin?

What a hard thing to find! I have looked at a lot of different options online. I found some nylon latex glove pouches that police use that seem to look pretty close and are not very tall. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Police-Security ... 485299eb41

Well it's looking great!

Your build is looking great. I can't wait to see your final approval pics! I have a question for you- are the grooves in the armor (I sometimes call them "accent lines") a darker color because you didn't use the Rubb n Buff in them and just let the color of the armor show, or did you trace them somehow with a darker color?

I am wondering the same thing! I think my first color, Rust-Oleum "Aluminum" was too bright.

My combination Kevin W and Kevin B armor was deferred by the LMO this weekend. He said it appeared to be Jedi armor and lacked details. He also said it needed more weathering which I can understand. The conclusion I am reaching from his comment about the details is that perhaps they won't be accepting the Kevin armor anymore. I don't know if anyone other than Darren1970 was cleared with that armor. I'm a bit bummed. I'm trying to determine if I want to purchase the Wolfgang armor. I'm hoping to hear from some approved Acolytes in America to hear how they painted their armor. I've heard the paint used by Wolfgang isn't available in USA.

Since I have already painted most of my armor metallic gray, I am going to stick with that color for now.

Got my mask from Mynock last week and am finally able to post a few pics. I am really please with how it came out! I was able to frighten the heck out of some of my middle school students. Now I just need to finish the rest of my armor!

Thanks Darren! The rest of my Kevin B? armor is being shipped, and I have fabric ordered for the Vader Arms. I can't wait to get some momentum again and try to finish this build!

Looks incredible! I like the side-by-side images of your mask and the reference image. I can't wait to get mine!

Darren- how did you hook the armor to the vader arms? Velcro? Also, how did you hook the biceps to the shoulder bells? Elastic?

Here's mine:

Now someone just needs to start writing a CRL!

Mynock has started selling on this board, and he also posts onthe FISD page. Have you seen his thread? viewtopic.php?f=29&t=2319

I can't wait! Your work looks incredible!

Version 2 (prototype) fit: Thanks! PM sent.

I watched the video to get a better idea of what the mask looks like on a person. Do you have any straight shot pics of the mask on someone (maybe without a hood)?

I still have quite a bit to do... I've been working on an ATA TK build 1) Get mask and paint 2) Get additional armor pieces from Chris and paint 3) Finish trimming ab 4) Attach belt and magazine pouches 5) Strap everything
