Locitus

This is the notch.

Find the notches on your kidney plate and trim those out. Then align them downwards. NE fails to show this, or tell you to trim them out, but you should.

Must have been a copy paste error after the last revision. Obviously ANH suits used cover strips and not overlap construction and the hero suits are exactly the same as stunt.

No it isn't. http://s1167.photobucket.com/user/Arnie_DK/library/JediRobe%20FX%20armour%20501st%20modified?sort=3&page=1 But I do agree that the helmet in question isn't a jedi robe now that I've had a fresh look at one.

As long as you have the D-ring.

It looks a little like the Jedi Robe recast of SDS.

No.

And as usual you don't trust my word until TM says the same thing as me. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The visible ridges comes from sloppy trimming/assembly. And I'm not talking about personal tweaking to fit large limbs. Nor am I talking about replicating a specific suit or the general hasty and sloppy assembly of original suits. I'm saying that if you can fit, and want to do it "right", you shouldn't have visible ridges any more than that you should intentionally crack you armour or attach the cover strips with rivets, just because the RS thoughs had some of them.

Only the torso is proven sandtrooper. And clearly parts from RS are mixed and used in several scenes, both in early and late recording, since tantive iv was one of the last. And you are right, it isn't the be all end all, but it's one of the best references we have since RS has put out so many photos of it. Yes, all the suits differ from each other, that's what hand made stuff does. But you can't claim that the visible ridges are intentional when they clearly aren't. And the picture you posted comes from the LFL archives. We have a lower resolution one in our gallery.

And here's a a shot of one of RS's forearms (left), and aside from the flare at the top, which cannot be covered, the ridge is well hidden. Same here with the thigh. It has some ridge poking out, but that's clearly unintentional.

Post them up then. And do keep in mind I'm not saying it doesn't exist. I'm just saying it's not intended to be that way.

Uh? No, no part of the ridge should be seen under the cover strip. If you do see it, it is unintentional.

I'm pretty sure they use the same humbrol paints you see people here use.

You don't need to unglue it. Just loosen the screws holding the brackets and detach the elastic loop before putting back the bracket and screws.

Keep in mind that TM might be somewhat delayed in his responses and armour making for a little while. He had an accident with a new blade and cut his thumb pretty bad.
