  9. ANH Stunt build getting close to done Need Feedback

    in TK Pre-Approval Questions & Discussion

    Posted

    Sooo I though I did some changes but.. now that I see that pictures i dont think its any better looking.. but I can walk better. I shortened the calves and thighs. I still feel as if I have the same above issues you all mentioned. I heated up the shoulders bells and they now fit my arms but only issue is now they are flat against my arms and are still way out.. I can change how big my arms are so im stuck.. I may try to bring the top closer to the straps and instead of stretchy strap use a non stretchy strap.Think that might help?also the strap that around my arm on the shoulder bell might need tightening maybe? Also after the pic I tightened the thigh to cod piece strap to and brought them further up

    Hey Jared, looks good. Only glaring thing I see is your shoulder bells are too far out. They need to be closer to your body/shoulder bridges. Other then that it’s hard to tell but maybe realign the arms. Your thighs and calves look very close, can you walk in that thing?

    Bells- I agree lol Only issue I have with is I used to work out a lot and my shoulder muscles are still rather big even though i don't work out anymore lolz. What do you recommend I do to shape them differently to fit better. heat them up? that makes me nervous. the inside of the bells are just to tight. 

    Thighs- and calves are VERY close together and NO i cannot walk very well. I kept everything the size it came out of the box. can I just use a dremmel to shave down some? on top or near the knee? 

    Thanks again!

    Hey all

    Over the past few months ive been slowly chipping away at my build. I feel like im at about 90% done. I feel like once I post the pics Ill get some great feedback to get me to 100%. In this picture The only thing I have wrong is the calves are not hooked in the back. Thats why they look so wide. The velcro is on order. Please let me know if you need more pictures and what not and what I can do to make sure I get approved. Also I have a slight interest in paying more money to make things more accurate if need be. This is a anovos.com kit I purchased. but I cut and built everything.

    Thanks so much for eveyones help.

    Jared

    This is great everyone! thanks so much. Ive been reading like mad through this site and watching some youtube videos. I guess my question is is there a spot that shows the difference between ROTJ, ANH, and ESB? I was told that ANH will be best for the anovos gear i bought. Im going to start with the fore arms tomorrow ! EEEK! Also a link to the spot that says the difference between basic, centurian, and the other one?

    Hey all! 
    Im about to take what i have heard is an incredible journey into the path of building and fixing my first costume build. I purchased a "Classic Storm trooper Armor" set from anovos.com about a year and a half ago. Big brown box day has come and gone. and i'm still in the middle of trying to find accessories to complete everything I need. I would love any help I can get. ive been reading my way through whitearmor.net and the forums here. but still would love for a lot of help through this awesome time! I have attached the first 2 pictures to start off my build thread. In one pic is my Brown box delivery, and the other is my wearing a anovos helm I ordered from disney a few years earlier which was built by them. 
    Also Ill be updating on my weight loss goals so I can even fit into this armor lol. need to drop around 30 lbs id say. 
    I also dont know if im going to linking the pics right so there might be a few edits lol
