Ref Trooper
#1
Well I have been playing with this for a while and now finally getting to the near end of it. As some may or may not be aware I also act as a Referee for Womens Flat Track Roller Derby here in Brisbane and as such had the idea of doing a trooper version of the ref stripes.

Main pieces to be striped were the chest and back plates and the shoulder bells. Still deciding what to do as the shouder straps but will get there soon.

idea is that for novelty events I can wear the armour while on skates and I am not even considering what will happen when I fall over.....

That's so very very epic!
You're going to have to tell us where and when the RefTrooper gets a run - so we can all be there!

That thing is pretty cool.... just think of all the stuff the skaters can get away with knowing you have no peripheral vision :P

Very cool. Maybe Santa Trooper and Ref trooper had better meet up sometime in the future. Great work.

Looks great Terror you should wear that to events where you are POC so we can find you easily.
