I paited mine to follow the reference photos, and left the dimple white. I wish I had your steady hand on how sharp you got the corner.

First thing: Helmet almost finished, I need fix the lens so it will not hit my nose anymore. Second thing: I wanted to see what I needed to do with the torso, I had my son help by looking at FISD and doing the best he could to tape me into it. This is what it would look like if Jaba the Hut tried on a TK uniform.

I bet that will be nice for some out door functions.

That's what I thought. A big headache with little reward. I am doing it on the shin because of the stress from putting them on and off.

Got the shins done today. I have seen a lot of people have problems with puttings inside strips in the forearms and biceps. Are they needed? Also did some painting today. I would be a pro compared to the reference photos. Looks bad when I see some of the talent around here

will this work for the eyes? http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/CatalogItemDetail.aspx/Safety-Face-Shield-Replacement-Faceshield-Standard/_/R-SAS5152_0006418023

I am hoping to use that at my undersuit for now. Compression ware makes me feel like I can't breathe. The first smile you will see is my approval shot. The rotation of the biceps was a bugger for me. I bet I looked at fifty photos to try and get it right.

After Lord Vader had me TAD (temporary additional duty) for a few weeks I am back at it. Mighty Tank came through as promised and new shins arrived. I was able to get the helmet together, and like a lot of people the left side gave me a little trouble but I got it together. Today I got the arms sized, trimmed, and ready for coverstrips plus E6000 fist the helmet now the arms tomorrow is onto the legs.

Nice job, even for an Army Dog, Tim!!! I kid, I kid. You are the type of person that makes me want to do better every day. WELL DONE!!!

nice job on the painting

-------------- Let me help you with that

FYI: I have two left shins as well. Trooper Gear is all over it trying to figure it out.

A TK in Garrison Carida wanted to see some of the improvements in the new AM armor. I thought some more people would like as well. Left Arm Right Arm Chest

I was going to stop at Harbor Freight to see if I could pick up a darker lens. Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

I knew I should have looked again....GGGGRRRRRRRRR But I did get the ankles done. I will be sizing up forearms and shins tomorrow to get them ready for glue. Oh and fixing the forearms again.

Remove the return edge on forearms

I bet, my way took me about 1 1/2 hours total.

Capi'tanc'runch My wife had the same idea, I just didn't have the guts to try it. I think you might have taken to many teeth out, you might want to double check.

Congrats Tim!!!! I can't wait to join the ranks with you.

Yes sir, I ordered two sets. I figured if I double them up I can glue a couple of things at the same time. That would give me fifteen pairs to work with.

Thank you sir Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

More dental work

From what I read it is four a side for stunt. I would check with your local garrison to see what they say. Sent from the Night Club's pay phone on the Death Star

In the reference photos the right arm had 12 dimples. Is that what you have?

From what I read you take the edge off the wrist end and the inside edge of the elbow.
