Trim as required to fit your head in as Steve has said. You may want to paint black in the inside of your bucket if the opening ends up being really large, this way you won't notice the white as much and will help to disguise your head . Looking good so far

As long as it will fit your body type it seems like a good deal

I have two ATA buckets and went Dave M decals on both, they look at fit great

Good luck on approval

You are very welcome Frank that's what we are here for. Just one other thing make sure the front of the tube stripe is falling down (greater on the top) if that makes sense, it follows the angle on the front of the cheek. You can see it clearly in this picture

Looking good, nice work

Your tube stripes look pretty wide, what measurement did you use, hope it wasn't the old stencil on the forum This is the correct appearance

It is a good armor but concerns if you are going to troop a lot and be a clown lol, the abs is quite thin compared to other makers and with the metal brackets used it can crack between the bolts. I helped a bud of mine remove all the metal brackets and replace with elastic and snaps, also glued and strengthened some cracks on the ab and chest plate. That being said my bud does fool and move around quite a lot so it may have put the extra stress on the armor. I have seen many troopers very with theirs, just don't go crazy in it

Looking good, but you do have quite a big radius on your knee ammo strip, also the tapper on the tube stripes usually is bigger on top and falls forward, but saying that you may be ok. Good luck with approval

Awesome work everyone, well done

+1 coming along nicely

Congrats and welcome to the ranks

It's the little details that takes the time, nicely done

Nice one, well done, sometimes you have to go ahead without your brothers

Coming along nicely

Looking good, a little squarer in the corners of the teeth will give it a meaner look

Hengstler mods can be fun

Looking good so far

Color matching will be the problem, I have also used plastic signs on others armor before, you can get a good match too

Congrats and welcome to the ranks

If you are using PTT (push to talk) and also aux blaster cable to amp, don't forget to slip these under your undersuit, I use safety pins to hold them in place. Headphones before neck seal, you can plug in and test all your cables while you still have your armor clamshell open, best to check then rather than being all snapped together

Just depends on what acetone you use, I tried several before I found one that worked really well.

Congrats and welcome to the ranks

Have a look at some of the other helmet builds, the seam on the side will be covered by your ears so make sure you sit them where they will eventually end up
