            Thanx Diatium.....And a question/query guys. I found these boots (pictured) at a garage sale (They're brand new, not steel cap...& we're cheap) so I painted em up to suit my TK Armour for the Halloween thing. I know there not Chelsea/Jodphur and there is a visible seam running down the front and sole is like a work boot,though not as chunky. Just thought I'd put it out there (I'll also msg Phantom to take a looksy when he can) for comment and whether to put any more effort into them to meet approval. I've checked the FISD site and the sole & stitching are probably their downfall...but that's no biggy, as mentioned they are for Halloween purposes to escort my kid and her pals around the streets here at home & I'll source some suitable boots soon.

I've also attached a pic in my first suit/armour up (taken last night, excuse the knee plate & drop boxes are taped there for armour up purposes) to see what/where needs to be modified further (the thighs/forearm,Bicep seem to be my headache atm) so I can hit the streets this Halloween. I'm only a shade over 5'7 (yes yes..a little short for a StormTrooper..lol) and weigh bout 74kg..I'm based in Rochedale South (Brisbane South) and would love to meet any local/nearby TK's to see how your armour issues are addressed particularly how the turtle shell thing (Ab plate to kidney plate) attachment works/is done. I've checked FISD but I'd really like to get a closer/up close look. Phantom mentioned there has been a lack of Armour parties of late...so just thought I'd ask.

I'm chipping away at it (as finances allow..lol) and I'll get there. Thanx for the help so far gang. Cheers, DEATHPROOF
