Nice project. If you are sculpting in clay i presume you plan on eventually pulling abs?
The mandibles seem too thick for an ANH Stunt helmet, proportionately.

An early drive, random rail crossing stops, a fun group, many puppies, 2 or 3 shrieking kids, not too much rain.... Ok it was soggy, but people still lined the route.
Always fun walking a community that loves a parade, attracts groups from other communitiez, but i could do without the monster truck.

Awesome! I’m the same way. Costumers in small #s with kids and families is my preference.
Exactly. Let them encounter us in small groups so everyone is in a great picture, instead of crowded photographic messes.

Every year our current mayor opens city hall to ... Hundreds for sure, couple thousand maybe, families, for pre-samhain trick ot treats. Witch handing out apples a la disney, predatory bird show, dozens of costumed volunteers, snacks and hot chocolate indoors.
I decided last minute to attend, literally in 30 seconds, cuz i needed fun in an otherwise crap day. No troop pics, we all arrived at different times and with so much ground to cover, and so many people, I stumbled about on my own.
90 minutes in 3 degrees C, 39 F? , and didnt want to stop.
This was far too much fun. Huge line for the treat tent. Not 1 scared kid, everyone in a good mood and smiles galore. Thriller and time warp on the speakers. Sooo many high fives...5 little yodas, a vader, a kylo and praetorian guard,

0200 start, 0330 kids arrival, 0500 boarding plane to disneyworld.
125 kids, all got.new shirts and track suits and hats and bags and flight.to Disney, rides, food, and a souvenir. Accompanied by volunteers and medical staff, for a 20 hour day.
Didnt take many pics due to kids. I lost count of high fives.
At troops like these i tend to wander and stand by myself:. Many, many, families approach for pics because their child is intimidated by large groups, especially when troopers stary to run over to join. It prolongs the 2 second picture, and, really, nobody needs to be in every shot. I know Vader understands, as do a few troopers, given my demophobia and panic attacks.

At 18 you can start handling. Find your local garrison.
Save for a few months. Or a year. Dont buy the cheapest thing you can find, it will be regretted.
Start with a reserve pilot or crewman. Then save for a TK.

i kept mine separate simply for airflow. its nice to wear a tshirt and shorts in your FOTK.

This was my 4th year for this event. A friend from university had leukemia and fought it for 4 years before leaving us. The crowd loves the lightsabers and ive never heard anybody question there are troops at this event. We mingle, pose, and head out to the route the walkers take, and give them a lightsaber salute arch to pass through.
Last night it took about 11 minutes for everyone walking to pass by, most with their own lit lantern style luminaries, and many saying "thanks" to us for the salute:. Like we are the heroes at events like these.
I opted to light up my armour:. The pathway is usually darkened for this event but, of course, not this time. You can kinda make out the el wire, and dozens took pics as they walked by. I tried a new idea:. Orange glowsticks folded into ribbons. It worked, and will be repeated.
Ill get some ids for these after school.

Looks good. Im always concerned by gaskets not taking up all the space in the forearms. Everyone makes them smaller the armour.

Blasters are not required for basic approval. These shouldnt pass anything theyre so flawed.
-
thats my point. Trooper helping Trooper is not Trooper helping lighten troopers wallet with garbage. If their CO knows about his activities (and the 5000.00 usd plus shipping hes made on 85 sales, assuming both threads are correct), then perhaps a discussion about how saying they are a 501st member, and using a 501st set to advertise a sale, gives the impression that the items are of 501st quality, if such a measuring tape existed for basic approval. I am surprised that he doesnt have 85 poor seller notes.

According to his ad, tipkryton is a 501st member. Anybody know him?
Hes sold 37 of these things. Ugh.

The gaskets are wrong on the arms. Theres a huge bicept gap sticking out. The gasket should attach all around.
May just need a seam let out, or entirely new gasket.
I doubt this was ever approved competently. Vote to avoid.

Looks good. Investigate strapping options, talk to your local garrison builders to avoid mistakes, and have fun.
Build to level 3 out of the box.

Welcome. Armour isnt cheap. Dont buy cheap armour is a safe rule as well.
1. Find your local garrison. Someone there has hands on experience cutting and gluing plastic. They will help, and you need the local garrison anyways.
2. Stormtroopers are the omnipresent, most publicly recognized suit. Consider it a goal, but dont consider it a goal blocked by finances. Start with an officer costume. Or crewman. Get into the 501st, open all the member only doors, and then put some credits aside for that goal.
Welcome!

The three rivets on left side dont line up. This is why it sits lopsided in the front and rear pics. Otherwise looks good.

Simple answer is www.501st.com, and in the community drop down, find your local garrison, and sign up on their forum. Get out to an event as a handler, or whatever they suggest for recruits.
Peruse the getting started pages here for stormtrooper info, or the Detachment area of 501st.com, and sign up where your first costume fits.
Thank you all!
