*POSSIBLE SPOILERS* Mandalorian & Grogu Trailer A little blurry but watchable, I'm liking the AT-MSE (all terrain mouse droid) and great to see some recognizable troopers (although no doubt reworked) As many of these clips have been taken down I've uploaded several to Google Drive, link here If anyone has a better copy please post or send me pm

It was! But for me, that's the fun part! I didn't expect at first having to remodel/ adjust almost every parts to match screen reference. The existing models looked great from far away...! It can be indeed a lot of work, especially when you dive into it for the first time doing a 3D printed suit, learning to 3D print, scaling the armor, finishing the print to smooth finish and holding your breath when doing the final gloss finish But there's a lot of good threads/ tutorials on how to do these steps. And I will be available for those who wants specifics on the armor build. I hope that in the near future, there will be vendors that supply the parts (which complies with CRL) on a commercial basis to ease the work. Especially for the flexible abs, which would be nice out off an industrial mold.

Thank you. I think it’s a safe bet to buy and then I can make those little adjustments.

Welcome Michael! Looking forward to seeing your progress..

Welcome to FISD, Michael! It's always great to hear stories of new recruits joining up after experiencing the work of club members! You're right at home here, and a great many troopers will be here to follow along with your TK journey and assist you with your build. When I first started the assembly of my own kit I amassed an abundance of saved threads which I've now compiled into the resource linked below. Hopefully the wisdom documented by our predecessors in the listed threads can be as helpful to you as they were me!

A little easier for you with a CRL now. Any questions, we are here to help. Also, please note we have updated the CRL as it was discovered a couple of elements were inadvertently left out, so always check in to make sure you have the most up-to-date version.

Thank you for this @gmrhodes13

fixed, i apologize for the inconvenience

Picking this back up! Excited to start working on this again!

Charging ahead with some new panels... Probably need one more coat of paint to be rid of any streaks, but laid where they should go... Should be much closer to reference but still some time to adjust before gluing them down. Just the front connecting piece left to re-template and cut!

Yesss! Let's get that EI badge on your profile (and then a rocker patch on your sleeve)!

Here are some pictures on the suit with lights on , taken on a mostly cloudy day (not much reflectivity showing of the gloss white). Thought I would add some backgrounds
