I hope the skim coat doesn't produce any cracking in the final paint work if the armour flexes. Great progress so far.

You may need to drill more holes but you can always reinforce the thinned ABS in that area by using a scalp thin piece of ABS glued behind if the holes are too close together. So almost anything can be easily fixed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agreed, hard to fathom how this company thinks that what they are doing is the right thing by their customers. Gouging and double dipping yet people keep sending money their way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I hope you and others do get what they ordered. I was so close to pulling the trigger on one of these about a year ago, I count my self lucky I did not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking forward to seeing photos of the complete ensemble in situ at Nova. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think we all stressed a little on our first armour build, but you are doing well so press on with confidence. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You have come a long way, looking much better now Adi. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Testers semi gloss grey primer is a very similar colour to the traps and Abbas button colour, and it comes in a small spray can. Local hobby stores generally carry it, but as Glen has mentioned a grey primer with gloss clear coat will do the job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome Samantha, good luck with your build. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good luck with your modifications Dave.

Suitcase and Helmet bag for me

The only positive is that they are shipping orders, still, I have only heard of a few that have received their FOTK kits. Let’s hope this trend is on an upward trajectory. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Emma and welcome to FISD, For all your Phasma gasket needs send a PM to SoulArt. She makes some fantastic product (Geeky Pink fantastic gaskets) here is the link. We are here to help so ask plenty of questions and enjoy the journey.

Deepest condolences to Ryan and family.

Welcome to FISD!!

Congratulations Dave and welcome to the rank.

looking good Andrew. I would adjust your ammo belt height up a touch so it sits on the bottom of the main Abb button plate, it is something the DO's will look at if you apply for Expert Infantry level.

Wow Steve congrats, looking absolutely bad a$$ [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congratulations Christian, welcome to the 501st and FISD

You should post up a couple of photos so we can see the extent of it, that way we can give you some solid feedback and reassurances.

The wet n dry fine grit as Joseph has mentioned will do the trick initially, but if you have a Dremmel with the buffing attachment and a tiny dab of cutting compound it will come up like brand new. Ive made a few E-11 lenses for mates here in Australia and even with rough saw marks from cutting up the perspex into pieces, those two have always done the trick.
