Great to see you applying for the higher ranks, brother!

Hey there! Just wanted to get some opinions on the return edges I plan on trimming onto the back and chest plate of my ATA kit. Since these pieces are some of the most important on a TK suit, I'd like to make sure they look great! For the chest plate I have traced out two potential cutting areas: the above one would result in a 5mm return edge, and the below area follows what seems to be a molded line on this piece. For the back plate, I traced the edge of the mold before it curves down significantly. Thank you all for your guidance in advance!

Welcome to the FISD Brett! Glad to have you in the ranks!

Thanks

Excellent pics, thank you, @gmrhodes13!!

Pleasure to meet you both @JBar @gmrhodes13 ! I am within the south florida region, and will seek to join the Everglades Squad! I had the wonderful opportunity to acquire an ATA works TK stunt kit, and have been chipping away at it every weekend since Quick question regarding the return edges for the chest and back plate: the phenomenal centurion build thread by justjoseph 63 suggests very little return edges for the chest "arm opening" area, as well as the back plate arm opening area. What are your thoughts, gents? I've currently left a very healthy 2cm return edge on the chest plate arm opening, and have yet to begin trimming the back plate (waiting to confirm the return edge size before I tackle it ;) ) Thank you for your assistance in advance!!

Generally not really but two factors are your one your size and how the armor fits on you, thinner troopers leave some return edge to fill any gap, and second your GML (garrison membership liaison) some can be stricter than others BUT I've personally not seen any issues to date.

Great news, good luck and hope you get a favourable reply and we see you with a TKID soon If you wish to you can post photos in our pre approval area for feedback, but not a requirement https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/193-request-tk-pre-approval/

I don't think you have a wrong choice weather you want more or the same weathering. I think either would look great with how well you're putting it all together
