Thank you, those will be helpful. I will review them and apply the techniques. :)

Sounds good, thank you. Certainly here is the right one. It is also a first run from Anovos. There are ridges. I left as much as I could in front (currently held together by backing strip and have the cover strip taped on) to try and accommodate the person's thigh. I wasn't sure whether to adjust the width of the cover strip or no, The back I might just have to shim. They are close to fitting with the extra left on but it is going to be close.

Thank you to all those who helped with questions and concerns, I was approved a little while ago. I'm working on a new belt and some refinements to go for a higher level, but am working on a few builds here as well. I did want to check about the back of the thighs if any adjustment can be made to not jab me on top. I had to use all the circumference available in the Anovis pieces to accommodate my thighs. The crest where they come together in back tends to jab though. I know for many some is trimmed there so it doesn't have quite a point. I wondered if the crest could be smoothed so they fit better? Perhaps something like the red line here: Curious, I know for many things there are agreed adjustments to accommodate different bodies. On the thighs thankfully I was able to get them to fit my legs alright. I'm working on another with thighs slightly larger that can not properly be accommodated with the base Anovos pulls. I was wondered what was recommended for that as far as where to adjust, and if anything is then different with the cover strip widths, and if so how? Many thanks!

Not that I am aware of. I see polling for TFU TK, Shadow Guard, and EVO Trooper, but not this one. It was all being worked on here. If you would like to submit it to poll the LMO, please do. Then the result can be recorded. Yes, and no, by design it is a hybrid. The chest and arms are more clone, the cod, abdomen, and helmet are more TK. It really is a mashup of the two as it was intended to be a bridge between the two. It references both, but it not quite either in most places.

Crumbs and I was all ready to finally get my TK approved. Guess I'll have to continue working on the ANH calves.

PM replied to. I am happy to assist with the refinements when you're able, thanks.

Fun mockup. There was an illustration from a book documenting the original capture of Thrawn that had 212th looking intermediate troopers as well, as attached. I thought it would be a fun costume to do, but it was just not quite enough a complete view to do so. :/

I see, thanks, yeah I've tried to get it to be flatter on the back (boiling water) but the problem is my calves are pushing out on top so I need a few cm or so more circumference there to safely wear. As noted here I'm being pinched a lot to have it where it is, so tips on viable ways to address that are much appreciated. Good tip on the blaster, thanks. Will continue with the pipe build and perhaps give that a try one of the Hasbros. What size pipe did you use @gmrhodes13 ?

Thanks. I've been working on improving my Doopey Doo converted Hasbro Blasters. For any not familiar when drilling out the holes on the bottom left (where they put a stripe, for reasons??) be careful on the two closest to the trigger. There is a cross support there in the Hasbro that can pull the drill out of alignment (and potentially mess up the hole). I'm also working on a pipe build, trying to sync up with good references and things. and alas the main kit is mostly assembled save some finishing details and fit things, but the calves just cannot fit my larger lower leg muscles, too tight. These are pinching my calf pretty badly and still not properly closed over; very uncomfortable. Any good suggestions on getting a touch more circumference so I can fit in there without harm to my lower legs? I can bridge in a little shim there, just want to make it agreeable and not harm the aesthetics of the kit if at all possible. Many thanks.

Yes, understood. They should indeed, and I have patched them cleanly and discretely. As an LMO I have followed along and as noted would like to go for lvl2; lvl3 is out because of a latex allergy, but I'll broach that when I've made other adjustments to the belt. Just working on standard approval atm. I have the snap plates all together and ready to go for the shoulders and torso.

Thank you and yes, for the moment I am using the Anovos Belt. Maybe replace in time but atm using it. Yeah, a right mess. I see that makes sense, I guess (added Velcro), but the Velcro is gone now, and the belt is fully supported. It was rather tricky to drill that off was some very tight pink cement on there: It appears to fit decently well though with the reinforcement.

The one major thing that was problematic on that version was the belt. I followed Ukswrath's removing of the armour pieces and took the belt apart to fix the extra hole. After doing so was curious about the extra bit of Velcro on the end. After not finding any definitive notes about it, it was removed. I added in some thing to support it better and moved forward.

I've been using Ukswrath's ANOVOS TK build (stunt) which has been quite helpful, thank you.

Got it all trimmed and stuff without too much issue. began sizing up things and gluing together. My legs are larger than some so that was my main concern on fit. I hope to be able to have it decently done, but will need to pass on Centurion because I'm rather allergic to latex. I think I'll be ok, will have to see with some time walking when suited up.

OK long in coming but want to document this so I bought an Anovos, a long time ago and galaxy far far away. One of the earlier ones. BBB: Helmet mostly done and that was about it:

Yes, very much so congratulations, great work. A published CRL would now be a next step (I'm one of the Legion membership Deputies for those who don't know me). New to the Legion costumers are asked to be a big part of making that happen and providing quality images. Be sure and include reasoning for details and variations, and let's get this posted and documented so the others working on the kit and do so.
