Upgrading my costume

Post by **Paul K** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 9:39 pm

Just for laughs, I dug up my 501st submission pictures and compared it against my current costume and boy, are the results different.

501st Membership submission:

My current costume:

Anybody else got before and after pictures to share. It's like having a make over.

Ahaha, Nice armor, Paul. I like it. I really wish I had armor; and I wish I was in the 501st. I'm to young though.

Bro, what is the difference...???

Looking at both pics are the same... Maybe you can tell the audience the differences....between before and after...

Might be my eyes, or the lighting in the picture..but, I'd say it's the helmet ..? The second one looks 'more' detailed?

Only the cumberbund, elbow, belt and knee armour survived the makeover. Everything else is new. New knee and elbow armour to come.

Looks good, ready for duty, trooper Paul. Just don't let those ewoks beat you with rocks and twigs. Lol!

That's why I'm a scout and you're a Sandie. Us Scouts do the recce using our accute powers of observation and figure out the path that Imperial Army needs to take. You guys are just canon fodder.

Hm. That armor looks painful to wear. Is it?

Post by **Paul K** » Wed Jun 27, 2007 8:35 am

For me, no pain. Just hot.

Ha, I'd say so. Immagine trooping in 90 degree weather, plus humidity. Ouch is right. Hot, sweaty, and painful. Lol. I have to admit, if I was to fight for the Impire, I'd be an Imperial commando. (Almost the same armor as the scout troopers, but black.)
