To put together a Shadow Scout armor is in fact, really easy.
You can always check the SC Manual
I checked out this link and came across that they sold the black scout armour as well. So I was wondering if anyone has bought his armour and what there comments would be on it?

Shadow Scout should be made from the same molds.

nice! reason i asked, because SC helmet looks fairly close to KS...if so than its only a few mods i have to do

looks like im going to build elite storm commando even if its not 501st approved yet. ill just have it for non 501st events and cons...would be super cool.

Does anyone know where I can find/acquire/modify the ammo bandolier for General Weir?
It's red... and looks vaguely chewbacca like.

Has anyone done it yet? If so, with what? Any other hints?

I think it'll be a custom job. If you look through the 501st TX roster there is a trooper with it, maybe you can contact him for advice.

You might want to post the pic of the SC you're trying to replicate. I think most of them have custom forearms. and only one uses the TK handplates, I believe.

this is the version im going for. i already have black TK thighs/ vader shins/ TK boots/ ordering the rest of black biker and helmet from SC today. i plan on putting a computer key on each arm piece to match pic among the other details to be as accurate to this pic. it looks like there are hand plates?

Probably need Crazas to verify, but I would assume you'd need to build a back to the vader shins and possibly reshape the knees. Get rid of the ridge down the center of the TK thighs, and the forearms don't seem to have the textured ridge like the TK's.
