I bought the rivets from Joseph as well, and the bag of clamps is a great deal I have used all of them at one before lol.

Rule of thumb Cameron, Measure, measure again, Mark your cut lines, measure again lol then cut. Be absolutely sure of yourself when you begin. A great resource is the centurions' build threads for details and the photo reference gallery. There is nothing more annoying and tear provoking that destroying a piece of armour and needing to buy it again. Heed my advice I've replaced a ton of parts before AND after my build was finished.

Here's a good resource for magnets and clamps

Welcome Kara! Always great to see women getting involved! Lots of great help here. I warn you in advance the "aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?" line will be plentiful. remember the search tab is your friend!

All and all I agree you are well on your way! Not much to do little tweaks, we all have been there brother!

It'll take some work but listen to Joe, keep sanding until it's flush with progressively finer grit and definitely buy the Novus 3 pack.

Mike do you have any pictures of your Helmet up close. As Kalani, suggested nothing really stands out and looks good. Cover strip and butt method is required for higher levels on your limb armour just keep in mind. The helmet is what I want to see if ANH-S is what you seek, and it may be the lighting and angle but it almost looks like an ESB paint job. Also you need one rank stripe per side on your ear bumps for L3. Also be wary of the kidney and backplate gap there should be little to no gap back there.

Agreed, with all parties. Welcome aboard. Build threads are a great resource for understanding the building process. The assembly, tutorial and how to's page is also a life saver. I am right across the border in Windsor so I hope our paths cross! The Great Lakes Garrison is a great group.
