  1. Round off the point on the side of the vocoder Remove any paint from gums: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. References, note the small gap of white between teeth and gums
  2. Incorrect link, that one goes to a classified record TKID12345, try this one https://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=36353
  3. I use velcro, you just have to make sure you get your closure flat, you may just need to hot water bath them. Also make sure you rough up the surfaces before gluing. Example not closing flat Nice and flat Some have even added extra strips to the closures so they can have wider velcro (I find 12.5mm each side is fine as long as they close flat) Bra hook elastic is screen accurate so some prefer that way Cricket has a nice magnet closure, I may try this mod one day.
  4. I thought that photo looked familiar
  5. Seems to be a common problem on WTF, plenty asking the same on his FB page, https://www.facebook.com/groups/612005498911674/search/?q=shins
  6. A discussion on the WTF shins here
  7. Glen, thanks for the quick answers! So in my photo, are A&B the left shin and C&D the right shin? I think it's the other way around, A&B right and C&D left, but check with WTK to be sure, I've not assembled a WTF kit as yet. I did see the cricket build, but still wasn't sure about matching the halves. So is the Sandtrooper sniper plate just an accidental inclusion in the kit? Some makers add Sandtrooper pieces to their kits so you could build either TK or TD
  8. I don’t have the undersuit yet (bottom). Will sizing with the boots on be adequate? Should be fine For strength, should there also be a cover strip on the inside of the front of the shins? I add one to my builds, just because of the constant opening and closing/ flex. There is this extra piece in the kit, does anyone know what it’s for (piece on the top)? Sniper plate Sandtrooper Per what I said at the top, which half is which? Looks to be ok A&B C&D
  9. Only those that donate to web/hosting fundraising get a "supporter" graphic added to their profile, we haven't had a donation run for some years as we migrated over to the Legions web hosting. Legion is currently doing a web/hosting run if you wish to support that https://www.501st.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=113646, the legion issues this to your profile , left is for web hosting right is for voting in the elections (they will only show on your legion profile).
  10. You may want to start a build thread here https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/258-imperial-commando-build-threads/ I have bells and whistles for my mando jetpack, younglings love it when they can hear the jets and see colored smoke, it's worth the extra work for sure. I use finger remote switches and relays to activate, similar to the one below, remote is very small without it's housing
  11. Have you tried reaching out to the armor maker?
  12. I doubt anyone would notice if you trimmed the front of the forearm. Albeit you could just remove the cover strip and reglue, they will come off with a little force Reference
  13. Hello and welcome aboard, good luck with your journey
  14. I bought the first one I found at a local discount store, I think most are around the same size
  15. It's amazing the print quality you get from these resin printers.
  16. Looks like you have trimmed the rear angled ridges from the top back of your shins? Here's another 850 Reference
  17. Posting a build thread is the best way to get feedback on how your build is progressing, at most times someone can chime in if you have questions or if they notice something odd with your build Here's the link to our gallery area One other thing to look at is the various types of TK, with swapping out just a few pieces (and a helmet) you can transfor from ANH stunt to hero and also ESB, here is a sheet on the differences between them And don't forget to follow the CRL's (costume reference library) base legion requirements and higher requirements Expert Infantry and Centurion, much easier to build from the get go if you wish to apply to those levels at a later stage.
  18. There are no requirements on the material type in the CRL so they can be either, screen used had leather material
  19. A couple of threads on the subject It can look daunting at first but if you've delve into RC or any plastic model kit building you will be just fine. There are plenty of great builds and people ready to lend a hand, we also have gallery areas full of references and sizing. Many have DDD (AM) armor and are very happy with it.
