  1. Just to let you know I almost did a shadow trooper and I know the CO from the other detachment from last year but I was talking with a friend of mine that got me thinking more about a Stormtrooper. This is why I changed my thoughts there are some events that just want movie costumes not the EU yes the shadow trooper may look cool in black but you can do so much more in white.
  2. I used a band saw to cut my finishing strips
  3. Lets help you out with the translation Hello, I start my armor ATA after quite missed my helmet storm ... (snif. ..) To not screw up I have a few questions that I lose firewall regularly to peaks in the forum without actually finding inspiration. Does anyone could tell me how to cut finishing strips (any size, method ...)? Would sooooo detailed tutorial (I think starting with the arms)? Or find suitable cutting tools (that's why I missed my helmet ...) In advance thank you!
  4. I have seen some for around $30.00 for neck seals on here
  5. So what does everyone think I should use acetone to make the paste and i am using painter tape for the edges. What is a good polish that everyone uses.
  6. if you have any question about your fit for armor you could email ATA and see what they say about your build?
  7. Question a garrison member told me that you can make a paste using abs plastic and cement has any tried it I need to use it to fill in some gaps. He took my armor and over lapped we tried to take it apart but that cement works too good and we had a hard time get the over laps apart so we stop before I broke my abs plastic and now we have strips on top of that. we talked about using calk but after awhile that calk turns bad so what are your thought of making a paste to fill in the crack on one side. I would love to get EIB status but I hope this does not stop me from getting it and I should be able to get approved by the 501st with my little problem right?
  8. so what should I do with part this the only one I was trying to fix on my forearm, my other forearm has a gap in it and my upper arm cover too should I just leave them how they are or is there away to pull them apart? could you use a heat gun or or try cut into the glue more or should cut both ends and start over and then start over ?
  9. One of my garrison members has been helping me out since I have no clue what I am doing he took my armor and over lapped it with my armor then he was going to put my strips on top of it. So feel like I am stuck right now on what to do now.
  10. I saw two different kinds of earth magnets on trooperbay which one would be a good one to get and how would I take it apart with out ruining the abs?
  11. Here is my photo what can I do to fix this ----------
  12. Alright I was wondering who could help me with my questions I been working on my ATA armor and does it come a manual to know how it is put together I just started glueing down my fore arms and they did not glued down all the way I used clamps but they where to short to go across so I stared to go back and glue more down with my abs cement and now I have a big gap on one side and would the strips cover it?
  13. I was in shock in the morning when I could not log in
  14. wow that's a nice set of armor you have there are you sure you want to part from it.
  15. Wow someone to look up too with 5000 posts
  16. That sounds like a good idea put some internal strips of plastic in there. What is the EI or Centurion? I just want it get approved though the 501st and no one in my garrison has a Commander and I am going to get my helmet though ATA too. now on the rivets can they show or not I have read some can and some can't? is there anymore things that I need to do for a commander.
  17. I am thinking about doing a Storm Trooper Commander and but first I can use ATA to build it right? my Next question is that can I just paint it with blue that's on the armor I know I am new too all of this building a costume's so if some want's to give me some insight on what to do would be some great help to me.
  18. wow that's good to know because I will be going though ATA when I get some money.
  19. Sounds good I hope it goes good I being thinking about doing a TKC can't wait.
