  1. Thanks for all your warm hearted posts, love back at ya ;)

    Troop on and hugs from here brother´s :)

  2. If I had anything negative to say it would be some of the pieces could have been trimmed a little more just so the cover strips met the ridges on the armor. Pop a bit of foam behind those shins to keep from hitting the thighs. That being said it is a really nice build, Well done :D

    Thanks trooper :)  i hear you, but this suit is assembled and measure to fit the owner.

    Plus many of the ANH armor parts do not have a straight platform going straight for the strips, so there will all ways be a little platform aside of the strips here and there.

    Many on the fan made body armor parts have a more straight platform made for the strips, but not ANH parts all the way.

    Here you go  :duim:

  4. Love back at ya trooper bro´s, thanks for all your warm and kind reply´s, i truly value it a lot.

    All ways nice whit a good feedback of ones work, and the shoulder clap makes you wanna keep on trying to go even deeper into being even more accurate.

    We freaks all ways have a small thing here and there to look into, but thats what this hobby is all about i guess :duim:

     

    A small thing.

    The indoor shots made the pauldron look red a like, but its perfect orange in real life ;)

  5. I have test both the 1,5mm pvc and the 1,5mm abs from RS, and i also think as TM point out here. The 1,5mm abs are way stronger.

    If you bend the pvc, it get a deep line like paper, and crack off more easy then the abs you have to bend many more times before crack off a piece.

    The abs are thicker, and only get a whiter shade to the plastic, while the pvc gets a deeper cut line or bumps in the plastic.

    The pvc are a bit more flex a like, but when you have assemble the complete armor, there are not many parts to flex as shins, legs, bicep, arms etc are lucked.

    I guess mostly the chest and shoulder might move a bit more vs. the abs.

    One more thing, the humbrol paint holds way stronger to the abs vs. the pvc when you scratch it when its dry as well.

    But thats just me, i guess we all fall in love in different things, but i say 1,5mm RS ABS is the best choice, plus the screen accurate used plastic as well :duim:
