I'm lookinkg forward to the result

It did work MUCH better!!
Today in the morning I bought a new white color:
The result of the new stuff:
MUCH BETTER!!! Now it has nearly the same color like the color of the leather

I have to make up for work:
The soles are already painted white, although they are not finished. I did some mistakes at painting:
1.) I bought a too little can of paint.
2.) I have the shoes not taped properly.
The progress of painting is not finished yet, because of too less colour and the seams are already black on some points.
At the last few pictures you can see the position of the tape (about 2-3mm over the seam). I hope it will be working better so ... ... ...merry X-mas!

With super glue! The only way how to fix it fast and without clamps! (my opinion)
But you have to be VERY careful with putting it in, cause the glue on the lense is not removeable (at least I don't know how :/ )

It is DONE!!!
I could test my Stormie at the Comic Convention in Vienna on Saturday the 19th of November ... although I'm not a member yet .... Everybody looked at me ... amazing!!! It was very funny for me and my family!
Here some photos of the VIECC (Vienna Comic Con):
I sent the application the day before yesterday ... let's see if I'm accepted ... I hope ...
here some "application-photos":

I finished the neck trim of the helmet:
looks a bit skew. I hope no one will see that
After gluing the neck trim I glued the eyes with super glue. The eyes hold quite well ... till now.
And last but not least: A full body photo :D :smiley-sw013: 
In a few days I'll paint the sole of the shoes white. Then I go for application.
I hope I'll get an ID 
-
So, the S-type-neck-trim is nearly finished. One work-step an then I'll glue the eyes and paint the sole of the shoes white. Then proceed to the application!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And again something has happened
The Soundsystem is installed and worked! I have already tested everything of it. The Stormtrooper Hearing Assist works very fine, except the fans are turned on. The hovi mics also do their job very well.And here the pictures of my "new" helmet
B)
-
Here are the glued ear bars:
The "s-type-neck trim"
Every decal are on the helmet now. It looks from time to time more like a stormtrooper helmet:
I glued a piece of velcro on the bracket and on the "SHA"-System (Stormtrooper Hearing Assist), the battery packs, the speaker and the iComm. All will be fixed on the bracket as shown.
a piece of foam for better adaptation:
Here a overview to know where I have to fix everything
The cable from the battery pack of the fans to the bracket runs between the helmet inlay and the lining of the inlay.

It went on with the ears
Results:
.) first step: tools
.) after that test-fitting of the ears for gluing
.) it fit well. Draw contours for easier painting it and mark three holes for better hearing (does this sentence make sense?):
.) make a hole where marked with needle and hammer:
.) (a bit skew, but I can't correct it)
.) after all painting ("Humbrol grey gloss 5" und "Humbrol black gloss 21"):
painting the holes from the inside too:
"Decals":
the helmet looks better and better B) 
finally after all I glued one ear
This ear has to be clamped for two days. That means tomorrow I can glue the second one. Yey!!
greets, Markus -
The hole electronic for my helmet is from ukswrath! Thank you, Tony! This is a real good system and in my view it is worth its money!!!
But step by step:
First I installed the "face-obscurer" (mesh behind the frown):
The flynet worked quite good, but nevertheless I glued the net with the E-6000 too.
always layered
I enclosed a piece of paper, because I didn't want the glue on the clamps. That's the reason for the white rest paper on the net. But it doesn't matter, cause no one would ever see this.
here you can see the mesh fixed in the helmet:
Here the first electronic-piece in my helmet. I installed it on the top of the helmet (on the inside
):
When the inlay is mounted, nothing disturbe.
For that first I had to mark the position of the inlay.
on the backside of the battery pack I glued 2 stripes of velcro:
(and inside the helmet the counterpart):
Ta-ta-ta-taaa!!! It fits!!!
Next step ... Ears ... ... First I marked the "hearing amplifier". The tape is for obscuring the surface. Be careful while drilling!!!
A piece of tape fix the cable.
...
After that I installed the Hovi Mics:
The rubber washer helpes tighten up the Hovi Mics:
Another important point, stow the cables is not as easy as it semms to be I have to find a way of stow all cables and amplifiers, or it's getting tightly and uncomfortable.
May the force be with you! -
Well, thank you. My task today will be the rank stripes
sent from Deathstar
-
Are there any rules regarding the number of rank stripes of the ear bars?
Because in the CRL's is written:
"Ear bars have only two to three bumps painted in black (rank stripes)"
And which two (or three) of the four bumbs shall be painted?
AND - which color is the right one? Is it the same grey like the buttons of the control panel on the AB-Plate?
-
Alright. Thank you. I'll try to cut out the teeth a bit more before gluing the net.
Merdé.... I have to paint the teeth again.... Hm.....I'll think about it.... :-D

I got the fly net for the frown (of the helmet
)
a short meassure (length and wide - approximately 17 x 6 cm) to know where to cut and how much to cut off:
More of the stripes obscure the face of the wearer more (logically )
That's how it looks like from the inside of the helmet. Breathing through it works perfect
And that's how it looks like from the outside (it is already not glued)

Thank you very much. It was work for two daysGreat job trimming out the eye sockets!
sent from Deathstar

I did some work at the eyes, because they look awful to me. It's really easy to trim ...
That's how they looked:
right eye
left eye
And that's how they look now!
left eye:
right eye:
Tomorrow I will buy an insect lattice / mosquito net for behind the frown.-
