I've made some modifications and updated the main post photos accordingly. Still have an issue with the biceps dipping, working on fabricating some hooks to fix that.

Thanks for your constructive criticism Michael, it's genuinely appreciated. The kidneys aren't actually as bad as that picture seems, my photographer and I loosened the belt to make some adjustments and then forgot to re-tighten it. It usually looks like this (photo taken for my original legion application).



Your other comments still stand however. I think the spacing can be made more even on the vambraces and thighs with foam as you suggested - I'm going to try that at least before I start pulling everything apart. I'll definitely add the stirrups too. The seams on the shins are down to the "bra strap" attachments being used - I'm having a devil of a time getting them to stay lined up, particularly on the right side, and they've been driving me nuts - I think in this case I'm going to have to sacrifice some screen accuracy and replace with velcro. Not sure what I'm going to do about the biceps yet, will have to do some experimenting - and I'll definitely research the hook method suggested.

Will make adjustments and hopefully take some more photos at the weekend.

Cheers - Paul

They're pretty straight forward, elastic loops attached to the wire arms screwed on to the armour. Let me know if you need any close up photos.

Brilliant, cracked me right up

How did you get hold of your hyperfirm, Danny? I'm toying with the idea of ordering one, but I've heard inconsistent reports about whether they get stopped by customs here in Canadialand.

I have it in high res, but no site where you can upload it and not resize it alas.

Planning to head over to Hamilton on Saturday, I'll keep my eyes open for the tall Jawa

[Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st]

Sounds like your classic case of co-worker jealousy to me, someone doesn't like you being more visible and getting credit. So glad I don't have to deal with office politics BS any more. Don't close down this thread, it's one of my favourites - and will continue to be useful for new builders like me going forward.

[Alay's ANH Stunt build (AP, first build)]

Ate you hearing any noise from the fans over the mic with them being so close together?

[Alay's ANH Stunt build (AP, first build)]

I've just ordered a pair of those glove liners - I was wondering what I was going to do about sweating under the rubber ones, those seem perfect. Thank you!

I didn't know SHIELD had a trooper division lol

Shipping is $250 to Canada - I was all ready to sign up for the payment plan until I saw that. Lol, nope.

Paul,

 

I am not short, but there can be similar issues to AP gear with regards to sizing. Take your time. Mark is awesome with answering questions but sometimes it's best to call him if there are misunderstandings. His gear is good  but it's difficult to size for women due to our proportions upstairs so to speak.

 

 

Sorry, I saw that you had a Jawa too so I figured you must be on the shorter side. We went with Mark's kit because from the research it seems his is better suited to trimming to shorter people - she's 5'4. It's great to know he's so helpful, he's been really good with the contact I've had with him so far. She also has a fairly large chest, so I imagine we'll be running into a lot of the issues you've been hitting. Thanks for the help!

[JAKKU: FIRST WAVE]

WOW, that was SO good. Awesome job to all involved

[Brattie's AP Build and Journey to The 501st]

Thanks for posting this thread Angie, we're going to be building an AP kit for my girlfriend who's also fairly short This is going to be invaluable....

[Anovos Replacement Parts]

We've ordered a set from AP. Can't wait to get started

AP Kit ordered

[Trooperexpert on Kjiji]

Absolutely, do a lot of research by looking at other build threads, you will find they are a massive help. Another thing to remember is there is no such thing as a stupid question, so as away members of the FISD & other detachments are awesome and will get you the answer you require 

 

A tip.. is to build the armor to the centurion standard, will make the detachment progression a lot easier. 

 

Cheers

 

We're definitely going to be shooting for EIB for both our kits at the minimum.

[Trooperexpert on Kjiji]

Paul,

 

I just built a AP kit for a fellow female trooper and the fit is quite good, AP is the way to go at 5'4" for sure. Mark does make a nice armor.. 

 

Good to know, we may well be picking your brains when the time comes if that's ok

[Trooperexpert on Kjiji]

Cheers Chris She's only 5'4" but she is... ahem... "fuller chested". I believe she's got an email out to Mark now.
