awesome. I love AP's...it's got "the look." I'm not particularly an "ESB-style" fan personally (something about black lips), but you did a great job on it. very nice.

Thanks guys, this is the first kit that i have made up. i have a TE2 waiting for me to paint which will be anh style so with this i thought i would try the esb style. I actually quite like the black frown now, its grown on me.

And a couple of pics in full armour

Great helmet and armor. :thumbsup

It's nice to see ESB is gaining more and more popularity among costumers and collectors.

Yes most people seem to go for anh so i thought i would be different. All i needed was a new set of hand plates and to change my belt.

My normal trooper belt is in the anh style with the holster riveted on from behind on the left, so i made another canvas belt and today made this new holster to go on with loops on the right.

Very nice. I've always liked the AP. Its the only accurate looking helmet that allows you to show it off and not have people say, "Looks like you messed up on the sanding. Its got bumps all over it."

Lovely helmet mate.

One point if you paint the individual teeth, it will look a lot more accurate.
