Note that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. Great work with the fixes Trooper!! Congratulations !!

Hey everyone!!! Any fellow troopers in or around Sanford or Pinehurst? Would love to meet and discuss the kits :)

Yep! I’ve been letting the paint layers cure around 12hrs, sanding them even with some 800grit paper, and washing/drying overnight. This last top layer I went thick/heavy, going to give it a full 24 hours and even out any drips that may have formed… then I’ll be done until it’s time to use the shiny black prior to chroming!

Barrel sanded Before: After sanding Just gotta pick out all the little plastic strands on the inside, then it'll be ready for filler primer along with the base. Definitely going much faster than I thought, gonna have to change the title now lol. How do you change titles?

Off to a good start, the never ending sanding, only downside to 3D printing

I'd suggest getting your (on the picture left) shoulder bell closer to the shoulder bridge. This isn't required for basic approval, but I've found that it improves the overall appearance of the shoulder bells to minimise that gap. Another gap that you might want to minimise is the gap between the bicep armor and the shoulder bell, possibly by taking away a bit of the armor on the shoulder bell in roughly the shape that MaskedVengeance already lined out. Another thing that might help would be taking away the return edge. Justjoseph63 has a great post on how much return edge you can take away: As for cutting off too much, simply try to cut a few millimetres at a time and do another test fit, then cut again and so on. Just don't forget to compare your armor to the references. I hope this might have helped you!

When I do I will prob try for level 2 or 3 lol

You know it - Dwight is in my Squad, one of my mentees, and a good friend, so I worked very closely with him to finish this suit on a very tight schedule after we got his Shadowtrooper L2 Specialist approved!
