  1. Great job Christine! I would remove a bit more of the eye return edge. This is what Andrew and I recommended when we were DOs mainly because we found the majority of Stunt troopers didn't have it.
  2. lol a zipper I love it. I use elastic and Velcro but I do like your idea
  3. Thank you, glad to be of assistance. Trooper Helping Troopers
  4. Hey Michael stuff the bicep under the shoulder bell.
  5. Hey Dave sorry for the late reply. Is there a reason you're using Velcro on the forearms? Is it absolutely necessary?
  6. A Lower photo, position is good.
  7. Align the top corners of the outer return edge, though in your case I might would raise the kidney a couple mm. It doesn't have to be perfect, even at Centurion.
  8. Sorry, my bad
  9. Congratulation Pam, welcome to EI, great job
  10. Glen you should send a photo of this to someone at Disney advertising. You never know it might land you a contract making or designing stuff for them, or get free goodies, or maybe even a trip to GE . Disney LOVES fan based anything that promotes their products. They thrive on it.
  11. Shoulder strap elastic should be white. Keep up the good work
  12. As for your shim question, I don't think so but you can ask your garrison GML since they'll be the one approving you at basic. As for the higher levels of approval the seam is allowed however, the rivets need to be in the correct locations.
  13. I suggest you make them small enough to keep the armor sections together yet not too tight, you don't want to put unneeded stress the bracket mounts either.
  14. LOVE IT! Thanks for posting this Michael and welcome, again.
  15. Good info Germain. It's been known for quite some time Anovos hasn't paid their Chinese supplier/s. That info came to some directly from sources inside Anovos, not arm chair info Those of us that knew of the financial crisis before most did and also had some good intel that Anovos may not exist by the end of 2018, this source came directly from employees of Anovos, not arm chair info. To the surprise of many they'll made it through the end of the year and are now producing and selling merchandise again. Who, what, where are Anovos having these made? Who knows. I'm not cutting Anovos any slack here for reneging on their contract obligations but how many armors OTTK included, have some shady history in their development? I'm not say it's right I'm just stating what's fact . Moving forward, did I understand the above correctly, is the prototype the latest version FOTK? It's TFA that hasn't been made since, well 2015/16. Disney is obviously still being supplied by someone and the fact that they're selling Anovos labeled products, and just signed another 3 year contract with them, is a pretty good indication of what's currently going on however, that WOULD be considered arm chair speculation Anyway, if Anovos is indeed supplying Disney then hopefully they'll be pressured to quick supply their other customers, and that's what this thread is all about.
  16. Trimming the return edge as you have illustrated should substantially help with movement.
  17. Actually I'm just assuming it is because the GE armor looks very similar if not exactly like what we've seen so far in build threads and other SM sites. The helmet is another matter, we know the helmets being sold at GE have interior padding. I have yet to see any TLJ helmets arrive outside what's being sold at GE so I can't comment on that.
  18. Looking good Joe, coming along nicely
  19. Looking good Adi. How did the cover strip connection turn out?
  20. Fine tuning Keep up the great work.
