I know in the last picture the kidney plate is upside down i have since fixed that and i am not using the elastics as i was told it okay to use a shim. Is this correct or should i go with elastic?

so here are the shoulder bells, forearms and biceps i think i have these right

So i have finally started on my build! I have some question for everybody out there, This is my first build and it the new NE armor. i have done the biceps and the for arms and put all the snap plates in the shoulder bells and got all those parts done will upload those next. I have been getting some help from a couple guys in the carolina garrison (thanks jason and chris) so i am not sure if i did this right or if i have to cut the kidney plate along that line or even where to cut this? i have been looking at screen shots they ar tough to tell because they have there belts on. anybody have any ideas? Jack

Thanks locitus! I think I have them right now!

have a question for everyone out there? i am working on the biceps onthe NE armor and it only has one thumbprint, which are does that go on left or right? thanks jack

Hey jefferey, is there any way you can post a pic of your two forearms looking down into them? i am also doing a NE build and wanna make sure i have the forearms correct they look a little oblong instead of circular Thanks Jack

now to be 501st the cover strips have to be the 5/8 or 25mm right? that is what i am not sure on.

Heys guys and girls, So I started my NE build tonight and had some questions? Will post pics later tonight! So I started with the forearms and cut 5/8 cover strips then left about 5/16 on the edge of the armor itself. went to put the left forearm together and found it a bit tight. My question is how much room should you have around your forearm? should it be tight or loose? cant really get an accurate look from reference pics

Hey everybody, Just got in my Armor master kit and having a little trouble figuring out how to fit the helmet? didnt come with any instructions and dont really see how it goes together? I am a neewbie at this and my first build so any info on the helmet or where to get the instructions would be awesome! Its a three pcs. helmet and have configured it every which way and still cant seem to figure out how it is to fit together? Thanks Jack
