Re: Found a few ref shots of ROTS Guard.

Yes, this is Episode III. The helmet is different, but short of custom sculpting one, you will likely need to go with the standard helmet, which is accepted. As far as Episode III goes, note the red boots, and leather gauntlets. Inner fabric material is not velvety, just plain, with no sheen. Just a...

Re: Pike Spikes...thoughts?

Very nice. ROTJ pike rasps are very hard to make look right, and you are definitely on the right track. I agree with BDGR, in that the spikes should almost attach directly to the shaft, without that spacer in between. Obviously, for practical purposes you need something to keep them all attached. I ...

Re: Under the robe

Thanks for posting these pics. On a side note....images of The Clone Wars cartoon have shown plumed guards wearing Senate Commando-like armor underneath....Lucious has posted images in the Senate Commando discussion, I believe. If ever approved, this would likely be a third, completely different Sen...

Re: Kanos Boots

I'm not familiar with any suppliers myself. However, I have heard of guards making their own by just making, in essence, a very tall boot cover. This would be worn over a normal red boot. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but would this still be acceptable? It's been a couple years since we've...

Re: Fiber Glass helmet is to small :(

As far as mics go, most of us in Star Garrison (myself included) have Aker voice amps by Jim Sauter (TK6294). He offers them on the legion boards. I've found they work great for me.....and you can get a PTT (push to talk) button from him so your mic isn't "always-on" and people don't have ...

Re: Just installed a helmet fan!

If you have a big enough helmet (ie..not Don Post), I highly recommend the squirrel fan....it creates a (relatively) massive breeze that will clear off your visor. I can blow hot air on my visor and can barely get it to fog for a split second. I also strongly suggest leaving a small gap at the botto...

Blu-Ray deleted scene guard images

We've all been waiting to see this! :trsuit: I've uploaded some Guard images from the deleted scene here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/48811827@N00/sets/72157627562017935/ In summary, this particular scene is very short, and does not provide us with any earth-shattering new guard images. But it's st...

Re: Voice

Hmm..not sure about voice modding. I have no experience there. The only modding I've heard discussion about is for Vaders....and most people not being happy with it. I did hear some new Vader mod is out there that sounds pretty good. Not sure if any of those could be used for trooper/guard purposes.
