At this time, we are both validated TK, and Beamishgunn is just validated as EIB ! So, my turn now ! After the last troop, i see many things to fix or change on mine. First change will be on the arms ! they doesn't fit me correctly : they are to big (or am i to thin...) So, i cut off a little part and reglue to the cover strip the other like this : - first i cut in the biceps - i removed from the cover trips the little excess I will glued them again together tonight... storm85 by fab TK3376, sur Flickr

Really ? Damn 1 was already trimmed when i received the armor and the other... well, i cut it until the edge ! Maybe i can just add a little piece of ABS behind to have this 5mm edge ! Thanks for the advice !

thanks ! Here are some comparative pics for our 2 stormtroopers armors in 2 different sizes and morphologies :

Yeahh it's official, i'm approved now ! So, our both armors are approved ! Beamishgunn have already start his EIB topic. For me, i need to fix some details and i will do the same !

Hi, enable me as stormtrooper please ! https://www.501st.com/members/displaymember.php?userID=3550&costumeID=124 Thanks

We're all set... but, something is missing .... YES, of course ! My approval !! Our both armors are almost finished ! Completed for approval but with some details to finish for levels 2 and 3. Beamishgunn is validated now as TK, and i will send mine today or tomorrow. We're already working for our EIB requirements !

thermal detonators ? done !

almost done, just missing the correct screws ! JustJoseph63 ? i need you !

ok, now, detonators

the other shins

here some close up pictures of the shin finished with my "moved" method !

almost done ! Here a comparative picture of the shin with sniper knee plate. The smaller one need to be completly rebuilded ! I made it some years ago without butt joint method and the sniper plate was attached with visible rivets... but that will be difficult because i glued it with cement glue...

for a better move, i cut off a little part of the back thigh behind the knee. I tried to keep the same angle of opening in the thigh than the shin : a little sanding and it's done !
