WTF TK ANH Stunt Build thread - newbie needs help
gmrhodes13 replied to cnsf's topic in ANH Build Threads
Paint thinner will melt the plastic, being an acetone it's what some use for making ABS paste. You could try an automotive buffing compound/polish -
Lazerjock's Trooper Master ANH Stunt Build
gmrhodes13 replied to Lazerjock's topic in ANH Build Threads
If you use the "direct link" to the Imgur image it will show in your thread, you need to use the link with the image tag, ie .jpeg Coming along nicely -
If it was me I'd do all new photos kitted up, it will complete your application rather than using some with the logo still on. Also note any comments already made as well as check for gaps and position, this image your drop box is on an angle. You find at times the photographer doesn't know what to look out for, having a mirror handy can help you spot any potential issues You also have a bigger gap at the bottom of your ab/kidney sides, if you could even those out would look better. Appears the top of the kidney is overlapping the ab in this image. Action photo pose is entirely up to the individual, you could look through the EI gallery to see what others have done

TK-12953 - A Dave's Darkside Depot EIB AHN Stunt build
gmrhodes13 replied to jsilvius's topic in ANH Build Threads
You will find links to most tricks and tips in this thread And when in doubt check with our gallery sections https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/ Make sure you check with the CRL when building so you include all the EIB requirements https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_anh_stunt And if building to EIB why not take that extra step and build to centurion, there really isn't that much work You can also check the EIB photo requirements here For adjusting your old kit to your partners sizing check out a few of these threads https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/38416-crickets-rs-stunt-build-for-the-vertically-challenged/ https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/38842-fragarocks-rs-stunt-build-not-to-scale/ https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/42868-sha-shas-wtf-anh-stunt-build-complete/ Good luck, looking forward to seeing your BBB photos soon. -

Pinkie’s ANH build thread - DA Props 1.5mm
gmrhodes13 replied to PinkThorn242's topic in ANH Build Threads
Downside to 3D printed parts, the never ending sanding. I try to give a general sand then use 3 or 4 coats of spray putty which fills up any remaining lines. -

Greetings from Northeastern Ohio!

Hello and welcome to the forum Roo (I'll call you Kang) (Kangaroo ) Good luck with the resources thread should be of help -
This is a post our DL made in the Cardinal Black Series thread "I have spoken with the LMO's (legion membership liaison's) and they are ok with this to go ahead. There are a few things they would like to see in your thread with regards to research. 1. TFA helmet is what the LMO's are leaning towards as this is a TFA era character that was gone before TLJ (yeah I know Hasbro used the TLJ helmet, but it's a conversation you and I can have) 2. They would like to see research from cross-referencing as cardinal has a description in the book and now the action figure that should take care of any parts that are different from the standard Storm troopers."
-
Never too late to add to your build threads It's a very nice bin indeed
-
If it's just the boots the CRL guide allows references from figures so really it shouldn't be an issue and I would think the LMO's would allow standard FOTK boots in red An action figure or statue may be used as supplemental reference, but cannot not be the sole reference For anyone following this Shawn @CrookKnight hasn't updated his build thread since June so no idea how far he has gotten in regards to CRL photos or indeed if he's finished his build.

Great to see you are following the base weathering, same as the TKC and TFU versions, I also mimicked the base weathering in my TFU build
