Welcome. Always great to hear folks interested in becoming a Snowie. Captain_Wordo's link in his post above is definitely a great start.

Aloha Jackonian,

I just came back from Maui! Started house-hunting while I was there!

Captain_Wordo's link is a fantastic place to start! His tutorial was incredibly helpful and highly entertaining as I built my armor.

I got my kit through Dan Laws. It is a great kit. He offers it unassembled or fully assembled and painted ( you would need to contact him about the price difference). I will say that is much cheaper than an Anovos kit. I got my duster and pouched through a Blizzard Force member that goes by Ice Axe, and his website: http://imperialissue.com/ . The duster was a bit more expensive then other vendors, but it is a heavy duty coat. The mukluks I got through an army/navy store in Canada : Hero Outdoors. They deal with a lot of 501st so they know what you're looking for.

Any questions< I will be happy to give you all the help that I can.

Joseph
