Thanks Scott I saw this stuff at Home Depot I'll try it out!

Mine was from Zuko the Avatar the Last Airbender

I've got a ton of it from other cosplays

Crap... I bought the gloss black... I am going for ESB Centurion too is it a huge deal? Personally I guess being completely screen accurate isn't a life and death situation.

I have an Idea to use rubber rope seals approximately 1/4" in diameter around the eyes and frown to mount lenses and frown mesh. What Adhesive works for rubber that's quick and permanent. I know I'll get the 1000 E6000 comments but I want something quicker that works better on rubber. Suggestions? also has anyone used EVA foam for their helmet padding or for padding around interior accessories?

At some point I may want to go for HWT unfortunately I am doing an ESB build so in the long run I may need to get another ANH helmet, robber ANH handguards, pauldron, ammo pouches, and perhaps another holster that is ANH configured.

Go Dan, you can do it!

If you're still looking for rivets I bought my cen rivet set for less than ten bucks CAD from Justjoseph here on FISD. They're vetted and the real deal! http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/34902-centurion-level-rivet-sets-for-sale/

Awesome! please do I'm waiting for my Angelus in the mail

and I totally understand how you've been feeling.

I bought Justjoseph's centurion rivet set for less than 10 bucks with shipping all in. give that a try brother

Check the for sale threads for the tracks. But the box and disk you could probably find something to Jimmy rig at a hardware store or even something at a dollar store. You'd be surprised

Yeah Mark recommended Brett's blaster to me as well. He calls his company quest designs.

Really like watching your thread Angie, your blaster looks amazing! Is it a quest?

I agree with Angie Bro, you're doing a great job. just slow down or you'll lose your mind. I'm in the same boat. I'm not even finished with my helmet some days I literally stare at it and think wtf do I do next... I found the more I think about it the more mistakes, scuffs and dings I make in it I had to sit myself down and say you need to slow the f down here, read your material and be precise. I've come to terms with the ears, the teeth and the brow I had to slap myself and say there is no perfect way to do this because imperfection is canon lol

I'm with you on this I really want to build either a Biker scout or the new TFA TIE pilot, the TIE guy is so cool

Thanks Steve your tutorial help me a lot the right ear needs some work ---------

lol, noted Dan. I took it off briefly to fit everything together. Tonight Lenses and the liner. I've got an interesting idea about how to mount them pics to come.

Trying to get those ears tight as a tiger... I think after my finishing up last night it looks deeeecent. more pics tonight

This is my undersuit. It's really comfortable and was pretty cheap I went for the 2 piece http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00A2MBT2Y?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0096K99HU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

I was looking through some EIB and Centurion requests and I keep noticing the TM holsters are leaving a black residue on the troopers' thigh armour and belts. Does this happen with all holsters? Is there a way to clean it off?

yeah I'm going to Yeah I think you're right Dan. I'm going to skip this entirely. It's extra work that serves little purpose considering I'll be using black eva foam for my padding inside.

I put one ear on to test, my Garrison Leader suggested smoothing out the edges of the ear some more and trimming down the edge where the brow meets the side on that 90 degree angle. I followed some other threads that punched a hole here to prevent splits but it wasn't large enough so the ear on the top front is catching and not closing properly... I will take care of that.

I went at the holes a bit more are they not square enough? Do the holes have to be completely flush ?
