Super! These mods look great! Keep up the great work!

They are not attached other then to each other. As for where to start I’m gonna go in the opposite direction and say arms. Biceps aren’t really seen so in my opinion if the covers were slightly off or the cuts were messed up it’s able to be hidden. Plus a replacement bicep isn’t as much as a shin (few bucks less). There’s also the added benefit of learning how to size everything before you have to size shins bent over. There are pros and cons to every aspect of where to start. Some people like the bucket that way it’s done and fun to look at. So dive right in and do it your way! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great job!

Hi Pam If you decide to redo the sniper knee be sure to keep it level in the front as well, the way you have it now is fine for EIB but we will need you to amend this for Centurion. I am working on your review - haven’t forgotten And, if you need help in how to adjust the Sniper knee just let us know

Congratulations, Welcome to EIB!

GREAT job on that sniper knee fix, Pam!!

Congratulations and welcome to EI trooper

Start from the ground up. Everyone sees you from the waste up, not many people look at your feet. So use the learning curve from the ground up. So that by the time your at your arms, you have the hang of trimming and such. Also, with your shins, don't fit without your boots on. Always measure with boots. And dont wear regular clothing under, wear your body suit. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

After reducing the size of the biceps, I found that they looked too small in relation to the forearms. I've taken them apart again and opened up the bottoms a little bit where they meet the forearms. I'll have to fill a little on the inside, but that won't be noticeable. I'm trying to meet the requirements for the new Centurion CRL. I figure I might as well try and get it right now rather than have to make modifications later.

Hey all, Just realized this thread is just supposed to be for pre-approval. I think that in the time ahead I may be adding too many build or mod pics and posts, which are out of the scope of this thread. I just found out about the Build Threads in this forum (once again, lots of info out there....), so I'll be switching to that page.

Wooooooo!!!

Nice work, congratulations

@gmrhodes13 the excitement is definitely there seeing parts getting the white. @FN-1313 I am familiar with your build as I have used your WIP as one of my references for my build. I will probably paint my chest vent and if I decide I don't like it I may go back and cut it. Here is a picture of the gloss white I am using and the gloss clear coat I plan on using. I found these in the automotive section at Walmart.

THe Kylo has been delayed until Summer now. They said it was on the boat with the FOTK and would ship first then when the March 19 date passed they changed their story again to Summer 2019. So that is three times now the Kylo was on the boat over 2 years but it never arrived. Straight up lies at this point. Keep in mind that so far their only has been one confirmed FOTK kit shipped and it was not complete.

It’s already march 21 and that message says “starting in march”. Also I checked the kylo ren ensemble updates and why is it saying completed production on more than one update? The whole timeline for the kylo ren costume is incomprehensable. Like I said before even with the new pics they sent (to most likely everyone and not just those who ordered) everything they said is old news. They can talk about the molds all they want in their next updates and that doesn’t tell us any real indication that that the real fulfillment status has actually progressed anywhere since the end of 2017. As for the kylo ren costume I’m seeing the same thing in how the updates are being handled (each update is just a rewording of the previous update). This means that nothing is being done with these orders since the last 2 years and nobody really knows why.
