Confratulations trooper...welcome Expert Infantry...

Looks about right to me..

Everything in the ad is already telling you to stay away..

My goodness... I cant believe they would put a price like that for something so terrible....

what Charles said, i found it very helpful for me to post pictures here so other people can see what im doing right or wrong.. AP is a great kit, i love it... have fun and good luck on your build. looking forward to seeing some progress pics.

Phil, Jenny...Thanks guys, its been soo much fun building to eib standards, makes me want to build some more..

The side with you holster goes under, so yes it would be your left side going under, well at least that's what ANH stunt is..

Thanks Mathias....

Thanks buddy, i really appreciate you helping me pointing things out here and there.... next on the list.. CENTURION!!!

Reza Widamahendra 50105 EIB Letter Thanks buddy..

Looking good mate.....good luck..

Happy turkey day everyone......

Thanks Mathias, getting my EIB on thanksgiving..... you just given me more reasons to be thankful today.... this really made my day. Painted the rivets and sanded down the knee plate to get that smoother look... as i mentioned in my earlier posts, Centurion is what im aiming for.. i know that im using the overlap method to put the pieces together, but like i said before, i bought the armor already assembled, and it was assembled using ABS cement, so im constantly trying to figure out a way to pry it open without damaging the armor itself. but either way, i am going to use the cover stips...i want this armor to be screen accurate as possible.... the best thing ive learned here on the FISD is that nothing is impossible....with alot of research, trial and error, and loads of help from great people on this forum...anything you put your mind into is achievable. Again i want to give a big round of applause and thankfulness to all the FISD peeps...im so proud to be a part of this community... Thanks again and Happy Holidays guys.. FISD ROCKS!!!! Cheers

Thanks Mathias, so ive trimmed the thigh ammo curve to the stencil line i made. Let me know if there are other things i need to do....cant wait to join the ranks.. Thanks Ian, i know right, us short troopers make our Vader's massive..

Thanks Phil, i do agree it looks soo much better... Ill just wait for Mathias and a few others to chime in, and ill trim it down later on tonight. Thanks a bunch brother...

so i had a chance to draw up some stencil line on the thigh ammo pack last night to get a better curve. i used Mathias's & TM's spray paint can method to try to achieve a better curve. how does this look? and if i do cut on the stencil line, would i have to change the rivet position? Thanks fellas..

Thanks mate, ill see what i can do with it when i get home....hopefully theres enough space left to work with..

looking good....

I will change the belt to canvas for centurion, but is the elastic going to be a problem for my EIB approval? I am considering to change that curve, but it seems that i may have to get a new thigh ammo, since that was how it was cut, so i'm not sure there's much i can do with the current one i have.

Thanks for the kind words fellas... i never would get close without all your help and suggestions.. i got this armor assembled and fit to someone else, so for me to trim it down to my size was a bit challenging, i had to trim so much of the armor to fit me and also did a lot of mods here and there, especially on the assembly of the armor, when i got it the armor was held together with nothing but velcro, not to mention there were old holes from drilling that i had to patch up, but with the help of wonderful folks here at FISD, nothing is impossible, hands down to all you guys and big, huge, thank you to you all... i think the holster extends beyond my thigh length because of my height, so im not sure what mods i should do there to make it look better. i tried to nudge the thigh ammo pach up a little, how does this look? Hi Charles, the belt is elastic, i got it when i purchased the armor. i am in the process of getting another canvas belt right now, so hopefully when i apply for centurion i will already have changed it. I also got the neck seal when i bought the armor, if im not mistaken, i bought it from a really nice guy named Aaron, here on the FISD, and i think he made the neck seal. Thanks Mark, the cylinders are there, perhaps i didnt take more detailed photos of the blaster. i want to thanks you guys again for the encouragement, please let me know if there's anymore i need to do.. Cheers..

Thanks Nam, look forward to troop with you soon.... Thanks Ingrid, if your going to do something, you must do it right.... Right? . Hopefully i can apply for centurion after EIB approval.

Hi Gordon, welcome aboard Congrats on the armor..lit looks great, i think my only concern is that your wearing your shins a little high. Just bring them a little bit lower and it will look better, and i dont know if its the angle of the picture, but fron the side picture, are your thigh piece to big? They seem a little odd. But thats just from my perception, you'll have to wait for the pros to chime in. And as far as bending your legs all the way...thats gonna be something hard to do, its already hard to walk in, i think running is a no no... I have found that walking around in the armor is something you have to get use to.but no worries, you'll get there There are a few mods you can use to add a suspender system to hold the ab and kidney pieces, but the way RS assembled your armor was the way the originals were done. But i think overall you look great, just a few tweaks here and there and you'll look like one mean lookin TK. Well done on the disney pics....looks awesome
