  1. So I've been pretty busy. But a lot has been done. While I´m waiting for the white color to arrive. I will geat the elastics on. I figured it was time to update here as well with some pictures. Most of the things are still work in progress. But my goal is to finish everything before the next weekend. And it dosen´t feel hard to get done in time. I´m hopping to geat approved and get my ID number so I can order the FISD Racing shirt ;)

    I did my best with the belt. Just hopping the rings from the upper holes won´t be any problem for basic approval. I took some material from the belt and glued it on the backside. At least the black wont be seen thru the hole now.

    The hooks on the arms is not glued to place yet. I just wanted to see how it will look like when its done. And yea I still keep the protection film on XD

    Calves almost done too. Just glue the elastics on the back and that´s it :)

    And that´s it for now. More updates will fallow within this coming week I promise ;)

  2. I want to start with thanking all for the help. Without you I would not be were I am today.

    And now to a short update. I haven´t done at much as i wanted to. I´m just been busy. But some work has been done. 

    I have removed all the exes glue from the arms and biceps. So they are ready for mounting.

    Secondly I glued the calves on the front. Haven´t removed the exes glue yet. I will do that when the back is done.

    That´s about it for now. I´m waiting for my brackets for the chest and so on. Meanwhile I will glue the back of the calves and then the thighs. But even if there is still a lot of work left it feels like the goal comes closer. And it´s coming faster than I thought. Hoping to work more on the kit this coming week. More than I succeeded in the last few weeks. So back to work ;)

  3. So now when I´m trying on the arm piece. I have a lot of air between my arm and the armor. I took the left arm piece and overlapped the edges until it fitted the way a wanted to. The result I get is i can cut of 2 cm on the back and 1 cm in the wrist area. And that´s with the return edges still there. Is it possible to cut that of or is it to much? Take 1 cm of from each side of the back and 0,5 cm in the wrist area.

    It looks round enough if i look at the arm piece when holding it together with the overlap. As it is now I can easily get two fingers in between the armor and my wrist.

    What to to?.. :blink:  

  4. And the trimming continued today. And this is the results.

    And this is the pars I trimmed so far.

    So tomorrow i will take a look to remove the return ages on the parts it has to be removed from. Then sanding. Now the nervous part for me starts. Try to bring it all together. I´m a really skinny guy so I probably have some fitting questions in a near future. Hopefully its not to much modifying needed.

  5. Hey everyone.

    Of course I had to lay all parts out on the floor just so I could take a picture.

    That's what i did the first night. It´s always good to look at the kit before you start. Because I have looked at so many building threads before my kit arrived. The only feeling was that it will be fun to finally get started. I hope to make this good enough to finally join the 501st. And it feels like i´m on to a good start now when i have everything to at least start building. This is the start to a great adventure and I really looking forward to every step and challenge this will give me. With your help i´m not worried about this.

     

    For the empire!
