He's talking about right here:
Some build threads or pics in the academy should show you how the movie suits were trimmed.
Dang I can't believed I missed that one. Thanks now that I see it NO WAY I can let that be...WOW. Must have been asleep at the wheel on that one. Thanks.

Nice Darren.
Did you trim the top of the thighs cause to me they look small for AM.
You should trim the plastic belt like this:

- raise the back plate a little .
- trim the forearm overlap corners.
(This only if you're looking for more accuracy beside that it looks good.)
Good luck.
I trimed them a bunch...couldn't walk in the at all and I wanted to be able to move in this armor. They are stream lined to my legs so I can move and run if I want in this armor. I like the way they turned out with the mobility I can get now. Can you explain the trim overlap on forearms more so I understand what your saying?

OK Noted, I air brushed the tube stripes and all other parts of the bucket...not as talented as I would have hpred for. going decals for tube stripes now. getting white straps for drop boxes...will retake pic after I fix snaps for holster and straps for drop boxes.
Better pic of buttons
This is a big old FX/AM bucket next to KW....BIG size difference
Here are non air brushed decals for tube striping on other bucket...will this work?
Will paint lines around ears...fix tube stripes move and moving eye brow...I put it upside down...now I see this.
Few more tweaks and I will retake pic....will have flexiable hand guards in next round too. Forgot to put them on in these pics.
Thanks guys and I'll get these fixes done.

Welcome Spencer,
I'm in San Antonio TX. There is a lot of great info on here and if you have questions just ask. I just finished my TK and I am waiting for a TM kits to build my TD armor. I am in the process of making some adjustments to my TK armor the I'll be applying for EIB status. One tip I'll give you is look at what build you want to do before you get too far into it. I made this mistake. Decide if you are ANH stunt or Hero ESB or ROTJ ect... then look look look some more. I found the EIB armor others did help me out a bunch. make sure you look all over after you choose. Trust me it will save you a lot of cussing later LOL See you out there trooper. I'm sure we will troop together soon.

E-11 all aluminum blaster build
in Off Topic
Posted
Hey guys,
I planning to build a scratch built E-11 all aluminum build. Plans are to have it match up to a true replica as best I can. I plan on having a fully funtional stock, electronics with LEDs and will add one or two small speakers for sound effects. I'm sure this will be a six month or more project with many adjustments.
I need advice on where to find some parts like the counter and scope. I would like to put Led lights in counter and make an illuminated scope. Any help here would have my thanks and credit in this build.
Additonally, I have looked at Hyperdyne or blaster core for the electronics...Any thoughts? I like the blaster core set up but know it will take me hours to craft this properly. I am currently in research phase of this project and have a significant budget to work with to do this. My wife told me to go play and leave her alone...MY MASTER PLAN WORKED!
I'm setting up my work space and buying needed tools to begin this project in the next two months and after I finish my TM Sandtrooper build I will begin this project. I think after I get this prototype finished I may build some more for fun. I will follow some of the blaster tutorials I've seen to guide me and will add to this knowledge as I go.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and tips to aid in this proect.
