Sewbacca you still got those marmit lids to offer? I think we spoke about em a couple yrs back :p

Thanks guys, had the stormy flanked vader setup for a while now.

Sorry shocktrooper, was sometime now. Dont have those lids anymore except for the ones on the medis and koto. I have a shadow trooper version kicking around. I'll through it in with the MR LE shadow helmet I'm trying to sell:monkey3
 
anybody know if you can clean up a SS Sandtrooper into a clean one? I need a Sandtrooper backpack for a custom and a plain Stormie and was thinking I can knock both out with one Sanstrooper:dunno

A member "speedyweasel" did one awhile back and it looks really good. Look at the link below, post 244. He also comments on some armor differences between the two you might have to resolve depending on how picky you are about such things. Speedy hasn't posted since the end of October so you'll have to send him an email or PM and asked how he did it. I believe some other people have done this, you'll just have to do an advanced search in the "Star Wars Custom Figures & Dioramas" section if you can't get ahold of speedy?

well i got the sgt out yesterday & had decided that he clashes too much with the desert sands version so i repainted him.
first i took q-tips & acetone and either completely wiped away the dark brown or smeared it around enough to lighten it.
then took a dry sanding block (medium grain) and buffed/scratched the armor up a bit.
took a foam brush and dabbed it here & there.
after that i diluted some country tan with water (almost a tea color) and gave him a few washes. he doesnt exactly match the DST but i wasn't 100% sold on his weathering either. anyway here he is. may tweak him a bit more before i seal/dulcote him.

Hey bro, what kind of cabinets are those?

They are custom made my friend. First when I made them thought in making glass shelves but couldn't see some heavy statues put on glass. So wooden shelves there are. The company also made the TV stand which has the MR AT-AT and soon I'll contact them to make me a new one for the eFX TIE Fighter and SDS TIE Pilot armor

A very old pic of the AT-AT and TV stand made by the same company:

Hi guys,

I'm looking for the custom stormtrooper leather holster that I saw somewhere here at SSF but am having trouble finding with the search function. Could you please post a link or tell me who was making and selling those? Thanks!

Gotta be happy owning one of those. One day you can sell it too me:rotfl

You mean the TV table/support? :D Anyway that pic is old, no cables are showing now.

BTW same trooper shelves in the blue light:
