I actually tapered the difference down to nothing leaving the side long. The look is nice and ankle protection from Smurf Jedi

Ideally the strips would be the same size. But from the pictures it doesn't jump right at you that one is wider then other. The question is how far are you going? Basic or hopefully Centurion. Unless you have a super strict GML you can get approval with what you have so far. Higher levels I think the fronts would need to be same. Tony or Joseph can answer that one. And not to skip ahead but I have a WTF and you're gonna want to hot water bath that left bicep to make rounder. And Shingate spoiler: longer pcs. go on outside for when you get to them.

I would lose all the return edge. Especially on top. Not seen under bell anyway. Ideally all coverstrips on arms are 15mm. In your case that'ss not gonna work and you've already done forarms. I would go with a 20mm coverstrip on front but trim butt joint for 22mm. Leaving 11mm on each side. Giving 1mm to ridge. The 2mm doesn't sound like much but will help with room in bicep. Make the back coverstrip as small as you can leaving enough room to slide on and a whisker for comfort. The best advice I can give ya

Don't forget Robert. Shims go on kidney. Good Luck!

The coverstrip needs to meet where raised edge starts. Are you using the compression top when mocking up pieces? A picture of it on you blue taped up would help. The picture you showed is huge for a coverstrip. Did you remove all return edge yet? It helps. Start a build thread in the ANH section. Post up some photos and we'll be able to help you along the whole way. Glad to have you here Future Trooper!

Congratulations Andy! Welcome to the Ranks!

Bucket is coming along nicely! As for the body. I remember following Crickets and then Sha Sha's build. Both great to follow which I'm sure you are. I would have to say everything needs to be made smaller to fit your frame. Putting return edges back on will be the hardest. But technically no return edges are required. Just for illusion of thickness. Best of luck Future Trooper!

Good Luck with approval! All easy fixes.

Congratulations Brett! Well done! Easy fixes for Centurion!

Once you figure out how to load images. Review pre approval procedure and post all info. Put on costume and take photos. Individual parts dont work for an approval. Love seeing another HWT in the making! We'll be here waiting......

Congratulations Jose! Welcome to Centurion!

Congratulations Jeff! Welcome to the higher Ranks!

Congratulations!

The paint in the photos looks good know. They end nicely on top and bottom and don't leave frown area. Good scraping. Sent from my LGMS631 using Tapatalk
