  1. I was actually able to suit up all on my own this time. Also I took all the pictures myself. and Stormtrooper selfie
  2. I'm liking the work you did!
  3. I glued my elastic there. Some Troopers use snaps to make storage easier but I do not have that issue. For elastic vs webbing think of it this way. Webbing for when you want to control movement elastic if you want it to have some give. For me I feel elastic is better as it makes it a tad easier to slide the bicep and arm like a sleeve and the forearm will stretch a bit rather than being rugged.
  4. I think your brow trim is fine. I've seen straight and angled. Good work!
  5. They do not have to be angled or rounded. Just depends on the look you are going for. The film they are all 45 degree cuts
  6. Just wanted to follow up and see if the DOs have to say need adjustment/fixing
  7. You double over the end to make a loop too make it easier to grab and clasp. Even with velcro it could still push on it and provide a gap. I know in shasha's build she did velcro and still ended up heating them to close the gap.
  8. Looks good! Just like mine before I put them in a hot water bath to close them more in the back. Elastics you can always pull off, reposition and glue again to make them tighter. Also can bend the hooks more so they hold better
  9. I think your best bet is to get more tandys and double it up. You can even put some type of spacer between (washer, scrap thin ABS, etc) to prevent it from ripping through.
  10. length will depend on your arm length. I did mine at about 15 mm.
  11. Correct screws! and shins are coming along nicely! Keep up the work trooper!
  12. As long as you look good on the outside what is not seen will not impact approval. I know some individuals have done an ABS like "hook" on the right side to prevent things from popping out, and keeping the ab armor close together.
  13. I would put the shin on and align the coverstrip. It may not sit as straight as you think
  14. I use a Popsicle stick when I applied mine. Its looking good! fill in a few small parts you got and sand it all down to smooth. Than apply a small amount of acetone to the finger and run it over the sand to give it back that shine! I'm excited to see how this turns out. It actually looks like that flat edge is not as noticeable either! GREAT WORK!
  15. You got this! Little bit of abs paste along the ridge and feather it out. Much like icining cupcakes. Sand to smooth and than can dip a finger in acetone and run finger along to bring back the shine
  16. That is one part Tony. The other part is the flat portions on the back of the shins and biceps.
  17. Here are a few EIB approvals for ATA And Centurion for ATA Try double checking their build threads and see if the same issue came up. I would wait for the DOs to chime in
