  1. Always best to check the CRL's and with your GML when every in doubt, some members may have been approved long before updates had been made. Standard thigh, notice the raised ridges are just next to the coverstrip Compared with yours which are extremely wide and then you have triangle cover strips which are half that gap. A lot of people add in shims, ideal way would be to cut the sides add space them out so the ridges come back to the middle not like you have there, then add ABS paste in the gaps/joons, sand and polish, sometimes paint and some filler may be needed depending on how the ABS paste dries and it's coloring. ABS paste thread https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/42866-how-to-make-abs-paste/ A rough example of what I mean You could give your GML a copy of the image above and ask if that is what they are desiring I know a few garrisons have approved really large triangle cover strips in the past but it's not a very nice look and most GML's won't approve them.
  2. Star Wars Show, TROS props piece, SONN-BLAS at end,
  3. First off, nice work, looking good, just a couple of tweaks you could address. Notice your left shoulder is sitting up more than the right, is should also sit over the bicep, not quite correct on the right either, just compare to the CRL image below, you may need to shorten those straps. Also the forearms need to rotate inwards, the cover strips should line up on the biceps and forearms. You have one drop box being pushed backwards. Slightly different gap at the top of the thighs, rotate the right thigh inwards. Left shoulder strap on rear sitting under back plate, could be the issue with your shoulder sitting up high Everything else looks pretty good to me, trying to get the correct look while wearing the costume is hard and does help if you have someone on had that knows the costume. A couple of tweaks and you should be ok, good luck with approval.
  4. Nice work, would you have any larger images, they are a little small to see details, most of us use an online image host such as Imgur for uploading larger images
  5. A thread on helmet size you may find of interest

    Just remember using "deleted scenes" would not allow the use in the CRL so you would need actual movie references for it to be added
  7. Nice work, there are a couple of references. You may notice the front @1/3rd of the forearms weren't glued to allow them to open up for larger hands.
  8. You'll find once you have strapping on it will help pull these areas inwards, I'm also very thin and have the armor trimmed to it's minimum size and still use padding in some areas, especially behind the ab plate so they don't overlap when my belt is tightened
  9. Just be careful with supalue, they can burn and leave discolouration, not so bad on white but really shows on black and red armor plastic
  10. I do remember from the TAG (Terror Australis Garrison) days that there was someone in Knightfall that was able to get lower priced E6000, think they used to purchase in bulk
  11. Ebay is a great place for E6000, wonderful if you need to change/modify anything later, easily removable FYI you can get smaller tubes of E6000 at Spotlight https://www.spotlightstores.com/e6000
  12. Coming along nicely. I added some snaps to the belt and ab/butt plates to help keep the belt held up, may be an option if it's too saggy.
