Another trooper for the Snowtrooper Qartermasters Booth

Post by heathrowtrooper »

Hi all,

A quick intro if I may?

My name is Colin Wright, otherwise known as Heathrowtrooper. I am a cleared member of the 501st UK Garrison as TB 8751 with a Biker Scout costume. I am in th early days of putting together a Snowie and I am really pleased to join the Blizzard Force board. I will do a lot of reading before posting daft questions and info/ pictures as the costume comes together.

As background I am in the UK with 16 years experience as a American Civil War, Ameican West, US WW1 and US WW2 reenactor (I have a 1943 dated Jeep) and have been on the UK Garrison board since Nov 07. I cleared in Oct 08 with the Biker scout and have had great fun on my first 5 troops.

I look forward to communicating with the Snowie community and getting my outfit up and running.

Hail to the Empire

Colin

Welcome aboard Colin,
Its great to see you here mate. Please feel free to ask lots of questions, use that "Search button up the top" (trust me it will help find all the info that you will ever need). And if you start your build, feel free to post pics mate... We love to see New Snowy's going together 8)

Thank you all for the friendly welcome - I have a line on armor, although with the exchange rate at the moment I may hold off for a while to see if it recovers. Still plenty of soft parts to be getting on with once I have done the all important research.

I will add the Snowie build to my web-site www.heathrowtrooper.org.uk, but until then I have a ton of updates to do on he Biker pages.

Keep well all.
