It dosen´t need to be exact and it´s easier to "line up" the center buttoncover as seen on the pics, for screen accuracy it´s roughly in line with the upper straight line This pic show the offset of that top line I was refering to and that it´s more often the center button is lined up to that. You could also check some Centurion applications for a more clear pic if you´d like

Thigh cover strip should end at the ridge The end is to be hidden behind the TD. Basicly to have both of the clips on the overlap , keeps the TD more secure. Overall great work - almost there

I noticed some gym-equipment so another option is to buff up and fill the armor that way Anyway good luck with the build

If you wear cotton liners (really cheap on eBay) then you have no worries and can troop just like the movie Troopers or as a full blown Centurion the way you were approved, I have worn that set up for 5+ hours straight and no sweaty hands, your choice though edit: meant cotton

ANOVOS (DENUO NOVO) FOTK Armor Delivery Possibility
TheSwede replied to JonnieBear's topic in TFA Stormtrooper
Sorry to hear that, I´m on the interest list but not received an email so if there´s a possibility of beeing bumped up I gladely take you up on the offer, PM incoming -
As well as shoulder elastic and the bigger rear bump on the shoulder bridges (for screen accuracy) and gap between bells and chest/back
-
I actually see a few thing but then again I´m mean and quite often refered to as an accuracy nut so....And Jim as you are fairly new to me I just want to say that I kid around alot so take things with a bit of salt Now I´m beeing serious though - your armor looks as stated earlier great but the new pics show some room for improvment, however minor, they still matter. Greg mentioned the chest and elbows, first pics indicated that the bicep could come down to close the gap but now I´m more inclined to agree with raising the forearms would be best or possible a combination of both. Question: how did you connect the back and chest at the shoulders? I can´t see any white fabric...which also brings me to: CRL The plastic shoulder straps need to be held down in the back via a white elastic band to the white fabric that connects/bridges the chest and back piece. On this pic you can also see that there is no big end tab on the shoulder bridges so if it were me I would chop that off - it is however allowed to keep it but none of the Troopers in the Movie had that. There is actually a topic on that matter as I got some friendly suggestions to stop giving this advise…...and now Dan replied but I failed to show reply as I was on imgur…..oh well…….anyway I keep typing and here`s the link to said topic (had to go find it....)
-
Fire away at the new pics Dan @CableGuy
-
I guess it`s better to have double the input than none so.....sorry for the extra posts Jim and see you at Centurion
-
Doh…..I need to start click read when someone is posting on the same thread as I´m typing on...
-
Okey......turns out I saved to pics to Imgur so here we go CRL (for Centurion) There should be a minimal gap between the shoulder armor and the chest/back plate. Drawing the bells closer to the chest will not only make you look like these guys below but also make you a candidate for Centurion, suggested fixes are to shorten the elastic at the shoulders, remove more/all return edge att bottom of the bells. Not a required fix just, but for a cleaner look would be to lower the bicep a tad to close the gap at the elbow In the pic above you can also see the dropboxes sitting pretty much flush to the ammobelt so shorten the elastic is an easy fix. That is a CRL requriment for Centurion and also looks so much better. Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box. Lastly we have the thigh cover strip that should end at the ridge Overall you did a great job
-
Will do, only hickup is that I made the suggestions during my lunchbreak so it`s on my computer at work, just got home and like the nerd I am immediately loged on but have a read in the links Mat provided in the meantime and I´ll have it uploded in the next 12 hours *yeez there´s not much downtime including sleep*

Hi Dan Echoing our other fellow Dan you have a very nice clean build I also have some small suggestions that I feel would ad to your awesomness - You have very nice painting on the helmet but I would go a bit thinner on the black outline to match screen used ones. Your pinstriping for tears and traps look spot on Regarding the tube stripes they look reversed, they normally lean forward, not something that will hinder any application but thought I mention it. You can read all about the tubes stripes here and compare to your helmet:
