Welcome back! It's definitely worth giving another go! I don't know what I would have done to decompress from the gong show of the last 2 years if I didn't have this hobby to keep me sane. The troops are somewhat limited currently - but there is still reward in the kit-building part of the hobby. Check out the "getting started" section for some general reading - see what's changed over the years. Finding and building a kit is very straight forward thanks to the info on this forum. Good luck and Happy New Year!

I get the same thing for those posts as well - I noticed they are both by Pandatrooper. Not sure if something happened to the posts. Some of the general builds (see ukwraths Anovos build) cover these more specific topics as well, assuming you can get access to them. Don't worry about asking questions - there is so much info buried on this forum that we are very used to people asking. In fact, it is kind of the norm. The people on the other forums are jerks (just kidding).

Welcome to the FISD!

Most of us build so that the bicep and forearm line up. But yes, many examples from ANH show the forearm rotated out. @CableGuy had a discussion about this on his FB page - you might have seen the reference there. Screen accurate or not, GMLs may want to see the strips lined up. My two cents.

Awesome luck! Welcome to the FISD. I’ll probably see you over at MEPD as well.

Welcome to the FISD!

Boba looks great. You’ll have no issues with the TK. The resources here are incredible and the response to questions is typically quick and meaningful.

Check out the link below. This should give you a good start. There are threads about buying kits and general building tips. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/38-getting-started-read-this-first/

I used this stuff and it worked great. You can find it at Canadian Tire.

For the belt, I changed up the measurements a bit - and it seemed to work well with the AP kit. Take a look at the below post. Good luck.

Welcome to the FISD. Wow, my hands are getting sore and cramped just looking at the pictures (I hate sanding). lol. Nice work!

Welcome to the FISD, John. You are absolutely in the right place. Take some time to read through the resources and familiarize yourself with the forum. The link provided above is a great start. And, of course, feel free to ask questions. Good luck with your build!

Congratulations! Armour looks great.

Congrats!

Wow, nice work! Welcome to the FISD.

Welcome to the FISD! Sounds like you are off to a good start. Good luck.

Welcome to the FISD. The buckets look great!

Welcome to the FISD. Ah, the Death Star play set - Santa must have delivered a bunch of those back in the day...

Welcome back! Three printers - I guess you went all in on the printing. lol. I printed a Mandalorian kit for my son. Getting the beskar look was a learning curve, but there seems to be a lot of info out there nowadays for it. Have fun with it!

The new Anovos. When all else fails... rebrand. lol. Hopefully this goes better.

Welcome to the FISD!

Welcome to the FISD, Jeff. I saw on your build thread that you have AP armour on order. Nice choice, Mark does good work. That said, if you need any advice for fine tuning the sizing or anything, let us know in your build thread. We are here to help. Cheers.

Welcome aboard!

The screen used boots were painted. Probably best to check with your GML to be sure.

Hi Paul. Welcome to the FISD. I have the same boots (they are my backup pair). I believe the seam is Ok for basic approval. If you want to upgrade and you can't find white vinyl boots without that seam, you can always try to find brown or black boots and paint them white. Cheers.
