  1. I was just coming to post I had found that link XD. thanks a ton mate. I know communicators are for hero and for now I am planning on going with stunt. I just wanted to have a 3d modeling project to work on to refine my skills. I thought that it would be most effective to make something that would be useful later or even helpful to the community. I was also got these dimensions of the mic tip from a post by gazmosis "23mm across the base, 10mm from the base to the vent, 13 or so mm from vent tip, inside diameter of the tip is 16mm "
  2. Sorry I should have been more specific. the tips length as well as its diameter. most importantly the length of the whole comlink.
  3. Thanks! As for the dimensions are there any resources on those or am I going have to pull out the old ruler and a ton of screen grabs?
  4. Gorgeous!
  5. Thank so much for the info! as for the mesh. The mesh for the comlink on the intake side. It seems to be the same kind used for the mic tips on the bucket.
  6. Here goes my plethora of questions 1. I am currently planning on using roofing foam to fill gaps because it's what I have on hand. Any recommendations for a better substitute? 2.I was thinking about making my own silicon hand guards using mineral spirits silicon caulk and corn starch which has worked really well for me in the past. If I used the hard shell ANOVOS parts to make a mold for this would that be frowned upon even if only for personal use? 3. I am aware there are parts that are not centurion grade in the ANOVOS kit but I have had some conflicting reports as to whether there are any that are not even level one acceptable. based on ukswrath's guide I am pretty sure the base kit is at least level one in every department. Wanted to double check this. 4.I was thinking about getting some more practice with sketch up by designing and 3d printing a commlink and have been struggling to track down dimensions as well as the type of mesh used. anyone have that info? 5.The bubble lens in ANH are only for hero and I am assuming you can not use them on stunt because 501st states stunt lens should be flat but if you put bubble on a stunt is that acceptable? Thought I'd ask to make sure.
  7. Any recommendations for sizing and fitting things to your body and size while keeping ratios? I am skinny (150lbs) and 5"10 my legs are thicker than most but my arms are skinnier. thanks all! May the force be with you.
  8. My life may have been a tad crazy of late so progress for the past while was slow but the past two weekends I had lots of extra time! Thanks to ukswrath's ANOVOS guide I was saved a lot of pain and potential errors. I can not thank you enough for that guide. Last night I did some fitting tests, lots of finagling left to do but here are the early results. (I am aware a few parts are facing incorrectly I had to do this all alone except the pictures thanks to the timely return of my girlfriend).
  9. moved the resources to first post.
  10. Same stuff they use in the ACH right?
  11. A good link for structural modifications http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35356-anovos-helmet-rebuild/page-3
  12. Hey guys! I am almost finished with my ANOVOS armor but I am looking into modifications for the helmet to increase comfort via foam and or better head strapping as well as increasing structural stability. I am struggling to find threads with the sort of information I am looking for and would love some links. Thanks guys. UPDATE: Resources I find will be put here. Fan modifications www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36631-how-to-diy-usb-helmet-fans-no-more-9v-or-aas/ ANOVOS Rebuild http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35356-anovos-helmet-rebuild/page-3 Helmet liner options http://www.gibson-ba...u55-Xliner.html http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/221940214041?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true%27 UKSWRATH TK build helmet mods www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/35086-ukswraths-anovos-tk-build/page-55#entry489535 Mic set up for TFA armor www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36733-helmet-electronics-and-external-power-supply-gen-4-ukswrath/?p=485144
  13. Anyone have recommendations on the cheapest place to find these? upholstery foam ( for sections of armor interior) industrial Velcro (to allow replacement of foam) chin strap (for helmet mod) belt replacement (due to ANOVOS's being less then acquitted) white elastic ( for chest and back attachment due to ANOVOS giving black elastic) Paint: Humbrol No; 5 AD grey Humbrol No; 14 French blue I know my local home depot has most of these but I wanted to see if there were any better sources.
  14. Excuse my lack of knowledge but what is the difference between the Traditional and the Revised? I understand the color difference but is one more screen accurate? (I would assume the Revised).
  15. Sounds like a plan. Thanks for the info.
  16. Any recommendations on where to get latex replacement hand guards for ANH within the community? Or is trooperbay really my best bet. also it will not allow me to use photobucket for some reason it claims it is not allowed.
  17. Thank you for the tip. How do I integrate it into FISD just link?
  18. HI guys! I am completely new to the trooping world I ordered the ANOVOS kit last year on recommendation as I am a very large Starwars fan and have always wanted to join the 501st. currently attempting basic level certification of ANH stunt as I have VERY limited tools and funds. I would dearly love input and thoughts! http://s1070.photobucket.com/user/Mitchell_Radspinner/library/ Day 1 I got home very late so mostly just took everything out of the box. I did have time to put together the thermal detonator as it was a very simple build Day 2 Didn't have much time but rough cut the abdomen plate and made a first pass for finishing Day3 Stopped using exacto and switched to dremal, MUCH faster but more clean up, which I find more fun anyways. Some abdomen, butt and chest parts out of the way as well as the sniper guard. Doing rough cuts first then going to do clean up in a second pass.
  19. I am pretty sure that ESB is not bubble. ANH hero is bubble lens and there was a hero used in ESB but according to 501st they are flat not bubble. http://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_esb
  20. I'm sorry this may be redundant, but I am having trouble finding this information. what exactly is wrong with the belt? And what are the recommendations for replacements? And is the belt only disqualified from centenarian or even from the lowest tier.
  21. Other then the hand plates (and the E-11) what are the difference between ESB and ANH stunt?
  22. Hey guys I'm wondering if these boots I found on amazon are centurion level once painted? I am worried the elastic is not U enough well U-ey. -----------
