Is it possible for a HWT to wear a Holster for the SE-14R or how do you wear that weapon?

Greet you. I also have a RS Armour. Wish you a lot of time or a good friend that helps at the start ;).

Welcome aboard and good luck with your costume :).

Welcome aboard and where ever you are,... hail to the emperror :).

besten Dank für die Tips. Das werde ich wohl auch probieren

Hallo, mal eine Frage: Hat schon mal jemand Hand Guards auf Nomex Handschuhen befestigt und vielleicht Tips diesbezüglich? Ich habe etwas Angst da mit E6000 ranzugehen... oder? Bin für jeden Hinweis dankbar

Thank you for the feedback. This said, here is my actual Status: The front view: At the moment I didn't fix the arms to the shoulders. The biceps armor will move a little bit up so that I'm able to put my helm on without any external help :). View from the left side: I feel comfortable with it. Do anybody see something I missed? The back view: View from the right side: Here I think I have a Problem on the Back armor. It seems that it reaches a little bit outside the rest of the shape at the hips when I walk. I could add a part of an additional elastic stripe to prevent that. What do you think. Another question: Would it been allowed for 501st aprovment to set a marking on the armor like seen sometimes from other armies. I think about my ID in Aurabesh Font on the left breast or at the left shoulder bell... I've seen tha also in some Star Wars pictures but not in the Movies... Now last but not least: an action shoot: And now I realize what I've forgot... the gloves with the handguards... layed on the desc next to me. Next time I wear them.

Hi Chopper, Thank's for your tips. Are you using the original strapping sysytem ?? ( brackets and elastics) --> Yes, at the moment I use this. Could there be a Problem with that? Also have a look at crickets and fragarocks builds good solid info on alterations --> Crickets build is I follow at the moment. I will look for fragarocks, too. Thank you.

Hmm,... interesting. I checked the gap between chest and backplate on the "Shoulderstraps" and it was been 40mm. I opened it up again and went to 50mm on both sides. Now it looks like this: Sorry for the bad pictures and the shorts but it is hot and they are at least black ... I think now I have: - The length of the front side is ok now. - The back seems to be a little short furthermore. - I have a hole between backplate and my back. Is this ok? Personally I think I could form the Shoulder straps of the OII-Platte a litte bit so that this comes down a bit. This would close the hole and bring this piece and the whole back parts a little bit down. at the moment shoulder stripes on the OII Plate is horizontal and therefore I thought it have to rest on my shoulders. When I also open the distance between kidney and posterior Armor I could win again some length. What do you think about that?

Hello everybody, I started with my first stormtrooper armor build some time ago. Parts are prepared and and now I reached the Point of assembling of the Parts. At the moment I assembled the Chest and back parts together. The front view looks like this: I feel the front looks good. But when I switch to the side it seems that the amor is a little bit long, maybe about 1-2 cm. Would you shorten this and how could I do it? Shoulder and neck is comfortable for me so I wouldn't change there. First idea was to shorten the thighs but when I have a look on the Picture I feel I have to cut the abdomen behind the chest plate and try to rebuild the return for strapping. So far, so good. When I look to the armor from behind... uh, oh,... Good knows why we have no eyes backwards... I mean, I'm surely fat but this... looks like the Death Star himself ... At the first look it seems that the OII- back armor is not plain at it's below end so that I have to trim it (?). In this case I could shorten the armor on the back on this Point, too. The other question (and maybe not only on the second look ) is how do I get this kidney armor in a regular shape. It would be very helpful and highly appreciated from my side, when you could leave your thoughts, tips, crude facts and comments to my so far build. Thank's in advance and with unquestioned loyalty ID29107

I didn't realize the different size ear parts. My fear was that someone bought the Helmet and made a mistake when he cut off the ABS. My other Point was the chance to buy a recast. I asked the seller for the source but he didn't answer until now. So I think now it is a recast. I contacted RS Props also for a Helmet meanwhile Thank's for your comments.

Love it. The Armor looks well and especially the Helmet is very nice. Good Job .

Hello, I'm unsure if this is really a good offer or something I should better stay away from. Can someone of the experts please give me advice here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAR-WARS-STORMTROOPER-STUNT-HELMET-KIT-ABS-COMPLETE-WITH-TRIM-DECALS-/232304945919?fromMakeTrack=true Every help is appreciated. By the way, I orderd an RS Propmaster Armour. Thank's in advance. Hans-Jürgen
