Make sure you get the paint off of the snaps on the butt plate for the cod connection as well!

Forgot about that pic!

So, here are the changes to the armour.

 

New kidney piece in place with rivets now aligned;

 

 

Paint removed from cod;

 

 

Fingers crossed!

That was quick!! Good luck. If you've got questions about that process just for the sake of learning it, hit me up.

 

I live 40 minutes from RS' workshop.

Which is great for me, not so much for them as I'm always pestering them!

If you'd like any tips or have any questions about my recent experience with it, just pm me - I haven't updated my build thread with that work, but will relatively soon.

Thanks, man. I actually picked up a new kidney piece yesterday, I'll be fitting it later.

 

I'm going to try to salvage the old piece as a test for future repairs.

Thanks for the feedback.

 

I'll clean the paint off the crotch rivets, I'll pick up a new kidney piece from RS next week and get it sorted.

Steve,

 

Thanks for the feedback.

 

Can you clarify what you mean by 'crotch hardware'?

 

I built the most of the armour, but the boys at RS took it apart and rebuilt a few bits to guide me a bit!!

They saved my lid after several disaterous drilling incidents too!

 

I'll get those pics sorted and get my centurion submission in real soon!

 

Thanks again.

[TK-17980 Requesting ANH Stunt EIB Status (RS Props)[444]]

Yeah, I see what you mean.

Always some tweaking to be done!

 

Looks fantastic- love the brackets! Adding one more strap to the lt side could help bring the kidney down lower to match the abdomen piece if you wanted, but it looks really good!

I went for PVC for pretty much the same reasons.

 

Great white glossy look to it, and Much more forgiving on the poor technique and inexperience of my talents!

 

Looks great now it's finished, And it lives on a mannequin most of the time.

 

 

Keep On Keeping On.

So i pretty much finished my build! Got carried away posting all over the place as i was far too impatient with the whole thing, so decided to stick to the UKG site til Id finished!

 

Thanks to everyone that helped, and in advance for the further questions ill no doubt have!

 

Got my TK cleared by the UKG, just a few minor tweaks before i submit for EIB & then Centurion, and waiting for my TK number!

 

The WIP thread is here if anyone wants to take a look.

I got my RS kit about the am time as you, and have made no where near the progress you have! I am very impressed, i hope mine looks half as good when it finished!

[cl6rkee's RS Props Stormtrooper WIP]

Eyes are looking better, trimmed quite a bit away.

 

Brow still looks low. That tutorial is pretty much what I did to begin with, but i can't stop it pulling down and making a gap when I fix the ears on.

 

I'll put a comparison pic up when I'm at my mac later.

 

Thanks for all your advice.

Got the rivets out fine.

 

used magnets to line it all up again and got the brow just where i wanted it, marked it and drilled the holes.

 

Put it together again and the brow did the same thing, seems to be that when i line up the curves of the left side of the helmet it pulls the brow down, how can i avoid that?

 

Really dont want to put ant more holes in it, as it has too may all ready!

[cl6rkee's RS Props Stormtrooper WIP]

The eyes definitely need more out, just doing a bit at a time.

 

I thought the brow was wrong, but I'd gone by the markings from the original cast. Defo messed that up then. Need to learn how to remove rivets without destroying the lid.

 

Thanks!

Some shots of my lid so far;

 

 

 

 

[cl6rkee's RS Props Stormtrooper WIP]

So, if i position and place my metal brackets and figure out where the holes will be, then i can figure out how much return erg ei can leave win certain areas?

[cl6rkee's RS Props Stormtrooper WIP]

Gazmosis, thanks for your reply.

 

So you think i need more return edge on all pieces? I see what you mean about the cod, i need to bring the line nearly all the way to the other edge.

 

 

You are starting off good. I would leave a tad more return edge, though. Especially on the ab/cod near the cod area, your pencil marks show that you are going to remove close to all the return edge is this area. Don't do that.

[cl6rkee's RS Props Stormtrooper WIP]

Excuse the cross-posting for anyone who has seen this already, but I'm eager to get as much help as possible.

 

Ive roughly marked out in pencil where the first cuts will be on the torso pieces of my TK, and i wanted some feedback before i actually cut it.

 

This is the link to the folder on photo bucket, there are 50 images, so didn't want to link each image individually.

Thanks in advance.
