Edit October 2017: Moved all pictures in this thread to a new host.
After many months (years?) of lurking, I have finally started my build. It is as terrifying and scary as I thought it would be. I barely know how to hold a shop knife, let alone using it to trim a Stormtrooper suit... But I am trying my best!
I actually got my big brown box about a year and a half ago (in February, if memory serves). For those who understand Norwegian, here is an unboxing video: youtube.com/watch?v=CANnpkNO29Y
Obligatory picture of all parts spread out on floor:
(I know, I know, the knee plate is upside down...)
I started trimming it, but due to more pressing matters taking priority, I had to postpone the build. It has been waiting in a box in my bedroom since.
Recently I started building again, and figured it is time to do one of these build threads.
I started with the arms and biceps. Thought it would be an easy start.
Left biceps:
I think I used too much glue on the cover strips. Some visible overflow:
Both biceps:
Arms:
The specs states no return edge. Is this acceptable?
I hope to have the suit battle-ready by mid-September. I am spending my summer vacation at home, so I have lots of time to work on it.
