Thanks guys! I will get the pointed tips on the frowns this weekend. Great reference pictures on the frowns.

We are sure its the E6000 because before the build the armor was spread throughout the living room for a couple nights (no smell). When I started using the E6000, the family complained about the fumes. So now i'm gluing the parts together outside and letting it gas in the backyard.

Congrats Steve! Happy New Year to all!!!

thanks Ron! I disassembled the shins and thighs this evening (using the old fashion utility knife and paint scraper / chisel). I got it safely disassembled (because I used PVC cement). There's enough room to make the corrections this coming weekend. I'm doing the 20mm on the shins and thighs front strips. Question for all: Is it me of does the E6000 glue really stink? I placed my armor outside for three days in a row and it still stinks. I'm not enjoying its gassy smell at all. Any thoughts on airing out the smell? I don't want my place smelling like chemical fumes.

Thank you Mathias and Germain! I will look into it again. My turkey calves and thunder thighs are my challenges.

Thanks Eric! Plano boxes Drum boxes Pelican boxes Modified hard case luggage with the Imperial logo!!! .... and I love that PVC pipe cape holder set up! My question is answered and then some!

Question: In event you have to travel (fly) to another city or state for an event (i.e. Star Wars Celebration), what is the best way to protect your armor and gear? The Stanley 50 Gallon storage box i'm looking at is 30.7 pounds. http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-037025H-Gallon-Mobile-Chest/dp/B000Q5LZT4#productDetails The airlines baggage limit is 50 pounds. Any solutions or great ideas?

Thank you Steve for the feedback. The thighs definitely need more work. My fiancee suggest I start losing the "thunder thighs" first LOL! Yes, I put velcro on the back for now to hold it together until I install the snaps system.

Hello Everyone, Finally got my first armor kit - NE (Nostaglic Empire). I've already started my build and documented them here: Opening the brown box Starting the build I decided the NE because it was available now and I read it accommodates larger guys like me. I'm 5'10" and 230 pounds. Thank you!

Soooo Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm trying to get the day off this Sunday to help you guys!!!

What's NE stand for? And is it 501st approval rating?

Here's the finished helmet!

Today, I finished my helmet! Please see below! Let me know your thoughts. I would like to get your feedback. I would definitely get another helmet kit from Scootch. This was a great build because I learned some much details on identifying a helmet.

Fourth & Fifth weekend pictures are uploaded! This is picture heavy with my tips and tricks on painting the helmet, ears, and mic tips. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/107611232966841542690/albums/5957851255463013713
