Chris has some interesting files so I for one are interested/curious to see how this will turn out. It does have some features though that reminds me of old FX armor, approvable but not that accurate. Looking at the helmet I feel hesitant it will look good enough in printed form to be approvable. But hey, you’ll never know and if it’s just a helmet you’ll be needing to complete this project there are plenty options out there. Haven’t heard of anyone trying this before so you might be a pioneer Good luck!

Notch is not required , it was present on the original armor but for Centurion it’s optional

You can, fill in the notch with a piece of abs and cover the seam with abs paste which basicly is dissolved bits of abs in acetone. Or you can try this option: You got this

All I can say is, to alligne the armor that way is not how it’s supposed to be. I think Glen meant the same but his photos wasn’t the best to show this. Look att the ones I included, it’s of the original armor.

To bad that this wasn’t caught early on but…fill in the notch with some abs and fill the seam and you should be alright, there’s almost always a fix for a problem

Not sure I fully understod the drawings but….with the original armor, this is how the armor is supposed to line up.

That should do it

Not to start a discussion but, Hamil was closer to 5’7 and that according to himself. At 5’9 there wouldn’t be any need for that extra trimming they did on both the chest and back piece.

Plastic weld works really well in bonding coverstrips on armor, pretty much all my suits are built that way and years in are solid as a rock

Hi If it were me I’d trim a bit more

From the looks of things it doesen’t seem you need to trim for hight. Good to hear you have found Christine’s thread already, I will ”ping her” for you @Cricket

Oh! Also, start your own build-thread and help will be plenty

Hi Can’t answer for were the links you mention take you but…all you really need to build your own kit are the many builds found here https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/80-anh-build-threads/

Amen to that! Come 2022 we actually might have a First order battle group worthy of the name here on the forum

Wasn’t the Anovos-helmets priced pretty much at the $600-700 mark as well? Armor-wise I’m pretty sure it will be the $1000 range it was before. Anyway, all I’m really bothered with is us getting our armor we are owed

Can’t help to start getting excited

I would leave it alone unless you really and I mean really really want to go full-accuracy, given if the discrepencies you pointed out are correct. I would send my GML pics of the helmet just to be sure and ask but I doubt it will be denied approval or even L2/L3 (Ask the DO:s about that) Good luck with the build

I would do both, some original armor below to help you decide

Nice video, just subscribed

Like I said, every day count as one Troop, as his GML I should know

Every day count as one Troop And..it was great to finally meet you in person We do look great don’t we

You could try to remove a little more and sand it really smooth

I would recommend using a hosting site like Imgur, it let’s you upload most if not all sizes
