How tall are you?, most armor makes can comfortably fit up to 6', anything over that is challenging. Adding extra strapping between the backplate and kidney would allow the backplate to come up.

1) I give everything a wipe with Prepsol which is a wax and grease remover, not sure if there's an equivalent 2) leave unpainted

Looking good, just a tip, I use some wire and gaffa tape inside so I can hang pieces so everything gets a full coat, also handy for drying.

Google photos generally don't work, I use Imgur or Flickr to host images, (Imgur can no longer be seen by those in the UK) Here's another host First time I've seen an OTTK from 850, looking forward to seeing your progress

Sorry missed that, only one coffee so far

Personally I think all you can do is try to equal the gaps between pieces, the armor itself is short and not much you can do about your height. In the end it's totally up to your GML (garrison membership liaison) if they will approve for basic, I would suggest reaching out and see what they say.

If you use the "direct link" or image with file extension, ie .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .bmp etc your image will show in your post Trim in areas that touch, that will reduce the gaps, some great info below, also adding a step to the ear and backplate will help bring the ear in more Alignment, some makes of helmets are a little harder to achieve this, it is only a suggestion and should not impede approval. The "ideal" ear placement is as seen below, where the screws line up with the rear angle of the trap right above it. Because some armorers design their helmets differently or send them pre-assembled this is not always possible to achieve, but it is suggested that you try to get as close as you can. Note: Top ear screws should ideally be located directly below the rear of the trap. My go to threads for ears Some references of screen helmets, many had gaps

Visual references Forearm to bicep strapping is on top of the forearm

Looks awesome, nice work

Hello and welcome aboard, good luck with the research

Great glossary of terms here AM changed hands and is now Dave's Darkside Depot Type: AM (Armor Master) - Dave’s Darkside Depot Country: USA Contact: [email protected] or https://www.facebook.com/Daves-Darkside-Depot-1188080927989611 Kit: ABS. All body armor components including face piece and ear pieces are .090 ABS. The one piece dome/back is formed using .125 ABS, as this piece is formed over a rather deep mold and anything thinner can cause thin regions which can eventually crack or fracture. White .060 ABS blanks included to cut as cover-strips. TD clips, rubber gloves and black Nomex flight gloves, flexible hand guards and all Centurion level hardware included. Availability: Normally 4-6 weeks or less. Assembly: Comes trimmed out of the box, but you will still be required to adjust for proper fit to your body size. Good choice for large troopers, but can be cut down. Can be ordered completely pre-assembled for an additional fee. Comments: Chest and back molds have been updated to address past concerns, and are now acceptable to Centurion level. They are now including a custom, die-cut Imperial cog themed helmet liner for the helmets, mounting Velcro included. Hovi tips are professionally cast aluminum. Hero helmets are now available. Indeed it is

Congratulations and welcome to the ranks Yes the forum only allows a small amount of images, most use a free online image host, I've just started using Flickr as Imgur is no longer viewable by those in the UK You can request higher forum access here

You won't find a better set of files, Bryon also does files of the Rogue One blaster, you should have no issues, here's all his models https://www.printables.com/@TK14082_234773 Just remember no print lines should be showing once painted. 3D printed components must have no visible print lines and must be smooth for a realistic appearance When posting photos firstly try to use the "direct link" option as it will have the file extension .jpg, .jpeg, .png .gif etc, etc. Also FYI folks in the UK can't view Imgur images, I've changed to Flickr for that reason but entirely up to you.
