It's best to use some trimmings from your kit, that way you'll get a good colour match

You can use some abs paste to fix the hole.
I'd glue a piece of Abs behind the hoke, then fiill the crack with ABS paste (100% pure acetone and ABS trimmings) and sand down when its dried. Avoid using nail varnish remover as its just not strong enough.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm currently using my custom boots (Chelsea style painted boots) which have a shorter neck than the boots I'll be getting from Imperial Boots in the New Year.
I also haven't got any snaps on the belt/ab yet, I'll be installing them today to keep the belt in place.
Thanks again and I appreciate the positive feedback and guidance. Cheers Troy

4 and half months after starting and learning a lot of new armour building skills I've suited up for the first time in my new Shock Trooper armour. Pictures for submission of my 2nd set of 501st armour have been taken, deployment is imminent .

Shock Trooper belt and TD finished today. Also glued in my lenses and added some padding.
All strapping completed, so may take some submission pics after everything sets overnight.

Got my dancing shoes ready, going to paint the town red and hunt me some rebel scum.
Temp Shock Trooper boots using my first TK boots, first painted white and now red and dirty
These are a Chelsea style boot, stripped and then painted. The only issue I wearing them with my stormtrooper was the low neck, meaning the shins got caught on the boot.
I plan to replace them later with a pair of magma boots from Imperial Boots.

Bucket update. Weathering done, just need to add some padding, liner and attach the lenses.

Sounds like you got a bargin and have everything researched. You may also want to consider purchasing the tools you'll need for the build, ie exacto knife, clamps, e6000 etc.
Tony's (Ukswrath) build guide lists everything you'll, it was my bible during my build.
And welcome to the FISD, once you start also consider creating a build thread, that way you can ask questions as your build progresses and get guidance from the many troopers here.

Congratulations Trooper and welcome to the Legion. Btw nice pics.

This Shock Trooper is getting close for Deployment.
Weathering done on the body armour today, the bucket is all that needs to be done (which I'm freaking out about a little).
Then to finish off the strapping, finish off the belt, TD clips to be made and padding in the bucket.
The countdown is on for the first suit up.

Project: Shocking update. More weathering done tonight, all the arm and leg armour has been done. Getting closer to that first suit up.
Its amazing what you can do with a pot of black acrylic paint and some rags.

A bit more weathering done tonight. Biceps and Drop boxes, I plan to come back to apply some further weathering details later.

With all my armour now assembled and trimmed I think it's time to get dirty
Started weathering my Shocktrooper armour tonight and it's oddly satisfying.
Using a black acrylic paint, rubbing it on with a rag, then removing any excess with a clean rag.

After getting some great advice from fellow troopers I trimmed my 'Wookie sized to me sized.
Pics of pre, during and after trimming. Also assembled my TD at the same time.
