Once you are finished sanding with the ultra fine grit wet n dry sandpaper, get yourself some Novus Plastic polish. The kit comes with three grades 3 being for deep marks, 2 more refined polish and 1 for a super shine. Not only will you use it tO get that ABS paste on the shims looking great, you won't regret the overall shine it brings to you full kit after heavy trooping. It is well worth the investment, I and many others here can garuntee it.

My sentiments exactly Paul We are about uniformity as you would imagine it would be in the real world. End of the day, we can't control what a trooper wears on a troop, they own their armour and it is theirs to do as they please. I have lost count how many times I have said this old chestnut, We are not about prop replication, that is what the RPF are for, we are the 501st with our own set of standards.

If you head on over to our 3D parts and technical threads and look for the F11-D 3D files, when you download them you will find a PDF that shows a breakdown of what colour all the components should be. I don't beleive it has colour codes but at least you will know what should be black, white and silver. hope that helps.

Mmm, that's some big pew pew goodness right their. nice work.

Chris I just want to say, what a great job you have done on the sniper plate. I have built 3 AP kits now and can tell you the plate just never aligns quite straight. The small gap underneath the centre should be irrelevant as it is not part of the CRL and not a photo that is asked for in the application process. To get it as close as you have and to have the sides aligned with the top ridge is a masterful effort, well done. Centurion is well and truly within your grasp.

Awesome work and thank you for the updates Rebecca

Congratulations Jason!!

Hey there Lucy, I love these kits and was lucky enough to see some up close at Celebration Orlando. Cant wit to see you finished and approved. Keep up the good work.

Excellent work James Every troop from here on in hopefully gets better and better for your comfort as you grow accustom to the fun and thrill of it all. I can only try and imagine how you feel but remember you will always have the support of your fellow troopers and as Alay mentioned, the all important handlers, they have your best interests at heart. Congratulations for getting out there sir.

Wow, such a good build thread, I look very much forward to seeing the finished product. Great work trooper

AT LAST!!! an easy solution, this is great news Paul, thank you Legion LWM team

Hi Andy, good to hear from you brother, hope things are well in sunny Sydney. We have had a discussion regarding not only this but other items in some of our CRLs, and as this is the way Jimmi actually has made the armour I think its safe to say at basic it shouldnt be a problem. I'm going to use an example that might get your OCD tingling as a GML but here we go AP armour has duplicate forearms, when it comes to the dimples on the back of the forearms on the actual screen used costumes, one has 11 the other 12 where AP both have 11. This is something we dont question from basic right through to Centurion, so i think the small difference in curvature or shape on a fan sculpt can be something we can easily let go through. Jimmi's armour is also fiber glass with a flexible resin and that stuff is very difficult to modify so we run the risk of the member doing more harm than good trying to fix the shape. Now looking at the extra images just added on the phasma, it could be an optical illusion due to the rotation of the thigh or the curve may beslightly different so a minor reword would be easier than getting the model to suit up and have the photos re taken. Hey hope to chat again soon my friend

Guys, NOT RPF, please remember, we are a costuming club first and foremost. Yep everyone is going to have some pet hates when it comes to CRL, and variation among costume builds, I know I do but!! ask yourselves, do many of these small items really matter in the grand scheme of things. I would hope that everyone here can look at and discuss what a CRL from basic and up, in the spirit of costuming should contain, because if we entertain every little item that every member doesn't like, the entire CRL will not resemble anything that looks like it was on screen. I would also like to add, as I have earlier in these discussion that the DO's bring up anything that looks too far out of the box as a suggest to fix or even a must fix. That being said, most of those that get the feedback from their application "DO" make those changes, without it having to reside in a CRL. The DO's are also the guys in the firing line when it comes to back lash from CRL changes when they become too lets say, nit picky. (I used to be a DO, so I have seen this first hand. Maybe concentrate on one item at a time before adding more and more things peeps dont like, and lets make sure we frame that item into the correct language as it would look in the CRL and please make sure it is a change for the better. Obviously this is all just my opinion and I'm happy to be proven wrong and my mind can always be changed
