I'm brand new to the whole 501st thing, and I'm looking to do storm trooper armor, but I'm running across some problems because of my size. I know ATA armor is well-received here, but I'm 5'1" and 110 lbs and when I contacted the seller he said the shortest person he knew that wore it was 5'3". I was also looking at TKArmor, who said that with some trimming their kit could fit me.
I'm not afraid to do a little DIY, because I'm pretty crafty and since my dad works in the construction field I have access to a lot of the tools people use.
Are either of these good choices for me, or should I look elsewhere? I'm 18 and going to college in the fall, so I don't have 1-3k to spend on this thing.
How much work are either of these kits going to take to get me into the 501st?
Should I pick a different armor/character all together!
Thanks!
