SCTrooper

I bought the same gloves and glued karin's hand plates to them, abit tricky. These are good for hot weather. ----------

Derek, I can help you out with the helmet.

Happy Birthday FISD, Thanks to all those who wanted to make better armor. Stormtroopers have come a long way,

Hey Derek, Looks like you are having fun, enjoy the build. Looking forward to your progress.

Hi Bryan, get some rubber handguards from trooperbay. I think they come with gloves, and look much better.

Wayne, your going to paint the armor ..

Congrats, great job on your kit.

Steve, you are living the dream. Love the hero.

The pic is of the promo trooper. Get a hero helmet and 2 more rivets and a neckseal bib and your there! + SE-14R blaster

Test fit looks good. I just recently trimmed my chest piece to look better. I did not notice this till about a week ago.

Whats your hieght and weight? These really determine the right armor for you.

NOOOO!

Hi Tyler, before you trim it make sure the the kidney is the right side up. The MTK armor, I am not to familiar with, but if its like ATA , the bottom edge of the kidney piece is a little longer than the top edge. The butt piece edge might be alittle shorter than the bottom of the kidney piece. When you hold the kidney piece against your back, the the edge that connects to the ab should be straight up and down like the ab piece edge. I noticed in your photo the top edge of the kidney is leaning forward. This could be the way you are holding it, just wanted to make sure.

Congrat"s big guy! Good to see some taller troopers going for it.

Keep your TM helmet for sure. Since I am a taller trooper, removing the padding was necessary to cover my long neck You really look good overall. Those xtra long shins look nice. If you order another helmet, get a TM hero.

I would not do it, Maybe someone on here has some extra pieces they can spare.

Trooperbay sells abs extension strips, 2pk 16"x4" gloss abs, should work well for finishing strips too.

Hey Skipper, Happy Birthday ..from So Cal

The armor fit's you well. I really like the first action shot. The mod's you made to the armor look nice. Cheer's Nick

Hi Serge, nice build. I noticed you left alot of the return edge on the chest. Trimming this down will make the armor more comfortable.

e6000 works really well, and is what most use.

If your armor looks like this, when you wear it you should be fine. He should raise his drop boxes just a bit. I would def go with the standard size strips, since you are a screen sized trooper.

Great job on getting AM armor to fit your small frame. You dont need the rivets or side snap for EIB, but you could move the shoulder bell strap connection, where it attaches to the chest and back strap forward so the bells are more centered on you shoulders. Good job!

Cutting the strips is really simple. Look in this thread. If you are not sure about something, there is alot of info on this site, just search and if you can't find it just ask. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=16246&st=0&p=198344&hl=finishing%20strips&fromsearch=1entry198344

Nice job Chris! Good to see an SCG here!
