Same on the left side.

And the right one.

Sorry for not posting any progress but trust me, i am working on it! Was a busy week so pictures will come later today or the next days.

As always i have to thank you Christine and your picture of your bicep helping me a lot!. I totally missed these measurements at the CRL.. (shame on me) so i will check my diameters to be on the safe side.

[Begun the ANH Stunt Build has [RS]]

I thought it would be a good idea to paint the buttons. I think the diameter is okay but what's about the height? With height i mean the overlapping if the edge. Should i go further down or leave it as it is?

After helmet and TD i wanted to start with my hole arm section like shoulder bells, biceps and forearms. I chose the biceps first and now i'm struggeling with the right bicep. It's a bit warpy but that is not a big deal but the high sections drives me crazy. Should i cut off the extension?

Wow, looking good Christine! I think i have to cut my chest too.. but now i'm not afraid to do so because i know how i can fix it.

Great idea with the clear coat and you are totally right with matching the white color. I've painted my screw heads white and this white seems to be a little bit too bright. So i will give that clear coat a try. Thanks mate.

The RS TK kits have two left shins. I've confirmed this with RS. You'll want to remove the returns from the bottom.

Good luck with your build! I'll be following! ☺

 

Thanks for the info Christine. So my eyes aren't that bad.  

 

Looking good! Your eyes could be trimmed out further as there's still a bit of material in there.

RS is a great kit

 

Allright, thanks for your advice Sarah.

Thanks for your thoughts. I had a template for the tube stripes but as you can see i didn't sealed it with gloss white so the paint bled out. How do i remove the paint? With paint thinner?

 

I will deffo smooth out the rough edges on the TD clips! Black screw heads - copy that.  Great idea with the velcro. Thanks a lot!

 

 

Reworked the TD edges

 

I know about the scratches on the surfaces but you won't see them. Screws still has to be painted black.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Shins

 

I'm wondering.. did i get two left side shins? They're looking the same to me, even the curves on both halves. Beside this weirdo, i saw many shins without any return edges at the bottom. Is this accurate or were they trimmed off becaus it's more comfortable to wear them?

Hey guys, 

almost one year ago i've puchased my armor from RS and was really happy to get one. Unfortunately i couldn't work on it until now. So you can imagine how excited i am right now to get all the thing together and transforming myself into a beast machine who could shoot everything down.

Helmet:

 

 

 

You see the gap above the ear? I will close that later. Should i trim the eye brow straight or leave it with this angle?

 

Little gap but i think that this will be fine. You also might see the painting of the tube stripes.. i don't really like it much so i will do a repainting on those.

 

And i will do repaintings here too.

 

 

I think the painting is not bad, but it could be improved.. so rework for sure.

The last to pictures showing you, that there are different sizes of space between the end caps and the center piece. One is about 20mm and the other one is 15,5 mm. Rework needed? Of course i will clean up that little sucker.
