That came out great, nice work. One thing to watch once you get suited up is make sure you have some of the O detail showing from the back, many forget this when assembling their TD's

Backplate can come up, also looks like you need an elastic strap between the butt plate and cod, that should pull them together nicely

I would just trim your corners to meet the belt and see how that looks, there is no actual size for the corners One thing which may get a knock back at higher levels is the width of your sewing, having the double V stitch looks quite wide compared to original belts, but that is entirely up to the deployment officers

On my RS set I had to add some pieces of foam inside to help keep them central, you don't want to make them too narrow or they will look odd against the rest of the armor

I run mine up over the neck then down the arm no need for making any holes. Depends on the troop, most of the time I don't use the PTT, you just have to be a little more careful what words you use

Some choose to leave some return edge, some remove all, I have thin arms so the extra return helps hold them in place and not wobble. Here is a great thread on return edges

Nothing better than BBB's. 1. Most build threads are pretty much the same when building, Tony's has a very in-depth Anovos thread https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35086-ukswraths-anovos-tk-build-stunt/ 2. The large piece of plastic is for your cover strips 3. Yes some pieces are differently sized, lots of references available in the Gallery Sections https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/category/24-anh-tk-reference/ Here is a very in-depth thread of resources, lots of info to help your build there https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/49412-all-in-one-tk-anh-stunt-index-of-resources-by-maskedvengeance/ You've started off well, if you don't know something ask, measure twice and cut once. Good luck with the build

Very exciting times, good luck with the build

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the ranks

I had the hard hat type plastic in mine and found it dug into my head after a long troop so promptly removed it and add some velcro and soft foam, a ring of foam goes around the temple and a thin piece of foam inside the top, pretty inexpensive upgrade but a lot more comfortable, for me anyway.

Looks ok, there are some issues of castings remains which would need to be removed and a few holes you cold fill. The counter should be further forward and a little lower

Hello and welcome to the forum, there are a few things which will need upgrading from a standards SDS set of armor, especially for higher levels, a couple of useful links I posted a review in this thread also here Updates made in this thread and now Level 3 Centurion approved

Depends on the armor maker, some are a little easier than others, I used magnets, clamps and masking tape to get it to sit just right, I also didn't take off any of the clamps for 72 hours, the longer you leave the E6000 to dry the better.

Came out a treat, nice work Dan

Looking forward to seeing this build

Yes painted area is slightly smaller than the width of the button, reference: Note: For Level 3 the paint does not extend to the bottom of the actual raised button.

Perhaps check out some of the R1 build threads to see how others began https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/196-rogue-one-build-threads/ Make sure you build as closely as you can to reference material, especially being a new CRL the finished product with be scrutinised more. And of course measure twice and cut once

Congratulations trooper

The chest/ab straps look as if they could be reduced a little as they are quite long which may help, but side straps would definitely do the trick

There are also these images, 3D files are available for this too also here

On plastic armor straps from the ab to the chest are usually enough but the may not be enough for foam so side straps may need to be added. Fantastic job

Sizing is looking better, you just need to get the bottom of the chest to move backwards more towards the ab plate, the chest is sticking out quite a bit there

Looks much nicer

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the Centurion ranks

Welcome aboard, you will find some great info here
