GENERAL ARMOR Received the armor from KB Props. Laid everything out and inspected to make sure everything was there.

HELMET: For this commission, the easiest part is the helmet. It is from Anovos. I taped everything I did not want painted red prior to priming. At this point, I applied 2 gray prime coats and let stand for 48 hours. I then proceeded to apply 4 coats of the Rustoleum Cardinal Red Gloss Paint. Waiting 4 hours between each coat. Finally, I added 2 protective clear coats and let cure for 7 days. This is the initial result (before final touchup)

I have been commissioned to build Captain Cardinal's Armor for someone. This is a very unique, since the armor has to be a glossy Cardinal Red, once completed. Here is where the items are coming from: Hard Armor: KB Props https://www.facebook.com/KBProps Gaskets: Geeky Pink's Phantastic Gaskets - https://www.facebook.com/GeekyPinksPhantasticGaskets/ Boots: Gloves: Belt: Premium First Order Belt Kit (Darren aka JAFO) visit http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36882-premium-tfa-fotk-belt-kit/ Reference Photo:

Hey man. I love what you did with the magnets. Can you send me some pictures or Draw something up for me that shows how you laid them out and whatever you did too adhere them to everything? In other words I would like to replicate what you've done. It takes the stress off of the back plate when you use straps. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Anyone know where I can get the ROTJ Bubble Lenses?

Sorry about that. Mimic is on the replica prop Forum website. He builds the armor, paints it, and finishes it for he sends it out. It is a flexible fiberglass material. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

For this last round I used mimic from RPF. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

This is great. I want to use your magnet set up in my future packs. Would you mind? Also since you let me know the specifications on the magnets and maybe where you got them? Thanks. Packed looks great. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

That is odd. There is a Stormtrooper with a Spacepack in ANH. However, I am not aware of one in Rogue One.

I just talked with mimic. His episode 8 bucket will be ready within a few weeks of the armor. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

According to MIMIC, when I placed my order the bucket is coming within 4 weeks of the armor. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

This should be interesting as this is what I want to build. I have armor coming from mimic and supposedly episode 8 bucket. Hopefully the armor didn't change so much that I cannot change it. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Another reason I cancelled my order of first order stormtrooper armor. Got it custom built and painted buy another vendor in a couple of months instead of a couple of years for a kit. Don't know what the deal is with an anovos, but they have major issues. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Thank you for the info.

Has anyone ever built the backpack that goes with the FOTK Jakku Trooper? I am getting ready to build an FOTK and want to do the pack along with it. This looks like a good one to Vacform. ------------

Sounds good. I am not going to get my armor until sometime around the first week or two of October. So I really cannot do anything until then. Of course as a pack Builder, I have built 18 different versions of backpacks, I also want to build the Pack for the first order Stormtrooper on jakku. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Thank you for the information. Sounds very complex. I will post on this thread as I do it and let me know if you see that I'm doing anything wrong. I appreciate it. Thank you. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Thank you for the insight. I will make sure I do that.

I ordered my belt kit from: Premium First Order Belt Kit (Darren aka JAFO) visit http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/36882-premium-tfa-fotk-belt-kit/ His stuff looks amazing. I am not going to start on it yet, but wanted to post the picture of the kit I received. I am sure it wall all make sense to me, once I get started.

I do have about half to three-quarters of the entire thread in PDF form if someone wants it. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

Here you go. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

I make these to order. Each pack takes me about 4 weeks to print and then a couple weeks to finish. If you are interested in one, let me know. This is quickly becoming my favorite back. Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

I just finished this pack and wanted to share it with everyone. This is a Full-Size Wearable Replica of the Rogue One Jedha Patrol Backpack. All parts are 3D printed and painted. This is very light weight. I posted a build thread on MEPD if you want to see it. http://forum.mepd.net/index.php?/topic/15207-rogue-one-jedha-patrol-sandtrooper-backpack-build-thread/ Here are some pictures of the final product. These are now for sale.

Tell me about it. I cannot wait. It is not the cheapest armor, but it is high quality and painted in high gloss.
