This just arrived. For reference.
-
Does the helmet seem really huge to you?
Mine seems really wide. I haven't put it together yet other than just holding /taping it.
-
Did you trim off all the return edge on the thighs?
-
Sorry about the broken images. Still working this out.

Looking good. I just finished my thighs today. Need a little cleaning up though.
I'm doing shins next then I'll be doing all of the torso parts.
-
No kidding. I think I trimmed off at least 4 inches on mine. Still have to finish the right one. They are a pain.
-
Did you do the thighs yet? Did you cut the return edge?
-
I do almost all of this on my phone using Tapatalk. It's really a pain to do anything else. Does this forum have a limit on pic uploaded?
-
Filling a gap in the thigh. Or at least trying to. I'll have to touch it up with some gloss white.
How do you fill gaps like this? I just taped the back and filled it with e6000.
Ok it won't let me upload the pic. Keeps saying the file is too big.
-
Nice to meet you! I'm in SF and also working on my NE build.
-
Got the left thigh going too.
-
Progress so far...
Biceps, forearms, right thigh.
Still have to do the back on the thigh but I'm letting the glue dry on the ammo box first. That thing was a pain!

Got this email today regarding decals from Trooper Gear.
This is actually a slight miscommunication, but decals will be done soon. Once we get the first batch in i may be able to get some sets shipped to the customers that would like them from the previous run, which help on the shipping costs.
-
Just emailed them. Thanks for posting those pics too. Every bit helps.
-
I got no such email. But I did order a set of decals from Trooper Bay. I guess I'll wait and see if I get some in the mail from them and compare them.
-
Ok whew! I had to cut about a inch and half off I think. Basically I put them on my arms and bent my elbow and then marked where my wrist was. It's nerve racking to cut the length.
Truth. I have to do that soon, and I am kinda dreading it. Do you cut on a forearm box line? Or does it matter as long as it fits properly?
I followed the line of the original edge and just removed the amount needed for my arm when it is bent.
Sorry dont mean to hijack this thread.

From the wrist end? Ok I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
-
How is the length on the forearms for you? I just put one together today and it seems like its way too long on me.
-
Thanks!
Ok first glue applied and clamped.
-
Held my breath and made my first cut. Hope I did it right.

I got my kit too this past Friday. Looking for as much help as I can get to start.

Taking the plunge on the helmet. It's totally baffling me but I think I'm finally on the right track.
