Anovos FO TK Standard kit on their site (perhaps by accident)
sylverbard replied to Anzo's topic in TFA Stormtrooper
They likely had to pay tax out of profits and got burned with the tiered pricing . Usually pre-order sales are full pop plus tax. -

The belts worn wrong. Whole suit looks twisted... -
Does anybody have an anovos discount code?
sylverbard replied to greyfox's topic in Hard Armor (General Discussion)
Shipping they are working on. See if it still says you can cancel for a full refund up until the shipping notice. -
Hydra does.Take a good look again at the first order logo...Hydra, top view.

In most states and provinces there's a traffic violation for operating a vehicle while improperly attired / capable of driving safely. Its the law they use for ticketing people who crash wearing high heels, kiss boots, wedges, car packed on moving day and the seats all the way up and you can barely move feet, etc. Don't ruin the armour driving in it.

Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
sylverbard replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
That's why I used clips. One side stays open, easy on, clipped. even without it opens another 50 percent front and back and I can put it on. With longer hair in a smart braid it would just take another second of wiggling. -
Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
sylverbard replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
I still think you need to rethink. Nobody I know / seen has ever needed that much hardware to connect front to back and hang shoulders and biceps from. The bridges are supposed to float in back and at higher levels are held in place buy the white elastic. I've got...two parachute clips, sixteen inches of industrial Velcro, sixteen inches of white webbing, eight inches of black webbing, and half a stick of hot glue, holding chest to back, shoulder bells, biceps, and forearms. All on piece. Nothing moves. Webbing doesn't flex if it's glued close enough to the middle. The parachute clips in the middle don't flex and the strap to the bells is glued between webbing from chest to back. -
Sorry, but the HUD browser in my TK is set to never accept cookies....

They don't allow discounts on payment plans for sure. Black Friday is coming :-) -

There's twice as much plastic in a fotk. -
Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
sylverbard replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
The white elastic around the bridge will help . Shoulder bells and biceps don't weigh much...it sounds more like the front to back strapping needs to be more secure all the way on the surface of the chest and back do it can't move outwards. You used webbing not elastic right? Glue it down as far as it goes without glueing to the bridge and slide the white elastic up almost flush. Tighten the elastic if its too loose. -

ANH Stunt helmet HELP NEEDED! Frozen with fear.....

What he said. Do the black first then the grey after. Pinstripe tape helps too. -
Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st
sylverbard replied to Brattie's topic in Build Threads Requireing Maintenance
I still dont understand but that's OK. My shoulders are held on with nylon and glue biceps glued to that. Forearms glued to them. All goes on like hockey pass and I've got lots of motion. Elastic would just ...fall. -
Best way to remove Under Armour logo?
sylverbard replied to TK-5069's topic in Boots, Soft Parts, and other Accessories
Well, it's not a logo. -
And yet the picture you use for five bars on chest reference has the white strap, and the pic showing no white strap doesn't have five bars on the chest. If you're making a specific trooper that's great. Make a specific trooper at basic approval. If you want the advanced tactics badges which are obviously put together from the best facets of the troopers in a given episode, then build a suit to those specifications. Saying your just doing something to collect a badge then removing it to suit your personal preferences...well is a waste of the DOS time, a disservice to people who've earned the badge and are proud of it, and make me just disinterested in your build anymore. Too bad. Good esb suits are nice to see. The other costumes you have are just Laurels. Don't rest on them.

Upload pics to photo bucket then put links here. Or link the listing. But if you have to ask if it was worth it......

Captain Phasma Build (Jims Fiberglass Kit)
sylverbard replied to FUZZMA's topic in Captain Phasma Build Threads
I would ask whomever is doing the vac metal work if they do the surface finishing. If so, let them do it so they have to redo it if there's a problem. Otherwise ask them how they want it brought in. But yes you'll have to do the seams and structural work. I'd make sure they see a picture of the kit as well as desired final look in case that they want things in specific parts or layers. -
Maybe. But I've seen too many builds where Bondo and glazing putty are structural...then All crack to bejebus. Apoxie sculpt, glue, proper finishing so things just fit are all better than Bondo.

Captain Phasma Build (Jims Fiberglass Kit)
sylverbard replied to FUZZMA's topic in Captain Phasma Build Threads
Since you have to Paint it start with 400 and just go bigger numbers till you are wet sanding with 2000. Phasma needs to be a mirror or it looks awful. If you are having it professionally chromed...just pay them to do the surface work.
