  1. Would you use it for the back? I´m going back and forth, having a hard time deciding Yeah this pic sure shows that as there´s no paint on the ear screws (and the helmet with no ears) Will be using that tip I think I´m going to experiment not using white primer and test "natural paint chipping" meaning dropping and scratching the helmet….atleast in my head that makes sence as there´s one less layer to go through to get to the "kakhi" and that the top-white chips easier without a primer underneath...well that´s my theory anyways
  2. I have the different paint ready, RAL 7034 and the fossil satin suggested by Paul (troopermaster) so time to paint. As Paul mentioned the RS helmet has two shades of greenish between the faceplate and cap n’ back. I decided to try the fossil for the face and the 7034 for the cap n’ back. Did I hear a ”move along” It’s way more shiny than the RS one but that helmet has a sanded surface as the white paint was removed. The satin fossil seem to be a much better match for the face than the 7034 would be so I’ll stick with that, thanks for the tip Paul The RAL 7034 could work for the rest but almost decided to use the fossil for the whole helmet...first some more thinking

  16. Nothing to consider, get approved and enjoy working on your blaster as an official Stormtrooper Kidding aside, also happened to read about the biceps and thighs and I say leave the biceps were they are, they should be low and the thighs are not meant to be rotated outwards, coverstrips are supposed to be front and center on all the limbs
  17. Not needed for basic approval so just send the photos and your good then build the blaster and helmet internals
  18. If you want you can find them easily on eBay
  19. Gaps? What gaps??
  20. I would follow ^ ^ advise just above
  21. You probably just haven´t read all there is to read, I also use 3 inch As of now the CRL dosent require internal strapping for any level - only how it looks as a whole from the outside, the strapping only comes upp in the application if said strapping affects the look of the armor.. The CRL is under discussion and some changes are likely to be made, internal strapping is not one of them at this point. So what type of thigh strapping one uses is personal preference, if you want screen accuracy than it´s 3" elastic, some use 2" and another might use 1" webbing etc. Personal preference - I like the hooks as it´s screen accurate, some like the velcro. It´s beacause the armor broke and it´s "on-set repair". You can see the original holes in the return edge
