Snaps

Welcome back!!

Thanks. It is so cool seeing that Centurion badge and title LOL!

Thank you very much Steve! I'm proud of the work I did. Like everyone, I spent a lot of time researching and looking at other members builds so thank you everyone in the FISD! I will troop with pride and honor!! Thanks everyone for the Congrats! It means a lot!!

Not bad but think I'll reserve more judgement till I see the whole armor. You can have the coolest helmet but can be ruined by horrible armor and vice versa....the original stormtroopers are cool cause as a whole, they're awesome looking!

What an awesome build! Thanks for sharing!!

Thank you sir!

Have thought about doing one of these...will be following! Best of luck in your project!

Where are you storing the images? Photobucket?

I went ahead and made the dropboxes thinner

Happy 5th anniversary!

Good luck!

Off to a great start Eddie! I love my AP. Looks like you have a future trooper on your hands too! Best of luck!

Excellent job!!

Line up the forearms at the wrists....you don't want to cut off the excess on the wrists end except the return edges... After you get the cover strips on, it won't look so weird and confusing.

The velcro / hooks is a preference....The accurate way is hooks but some go for velcro. I did velcro cause it was easier Here's a pic for the shims, works for thighs and shins. Sorry couldn't find an image with the hooks but it works the same and you can check out trooperbay's how-to video's on you-tube as he does the hooks.

The wrist accuracy is no lip, aka return edges. If your building towards EIB and centurion then yeah, remove the return edges. I didn't cut down the higher edge by the elbow but did sand down the sharp corner. The shims will help with making them look nice. Take a look at EIB and centurion builds marked with AP in the titles and you can see what other troopers have done!

Looking really good!

I read in another thread that there are some server issues going on....

Looking pretty good....obviously a tight fit is the best but a tiny bit of a gap is the norm as you would see in movie still shots....

Thanks Jason...I never noticed drop boxes being that slim. Going to wait to see what Gazmosis says as well. Appreciate it!!

Thanks...I do have a strap connecting the forearm. Maybe I'll try a second one when I get Centurion taken care of....

Looking good....I agree with the e6000 as a lot of troopers will. It'll make it a ton easier when you have to make adjustments as you go along! Looks like you can drop a black stripe on the back of the helmet and space them out a little bit more. Best of luck

Yup, thanks Andrew! Pic added... Thanks everyone!!

Hey Nikos, welcome to the FISD!
