Finally come back to this trooper. It looks like the control has been updated. Still have work to do. Took some quick photos for a test fit.

Realized I had not posted in a about a year, so here is an update and some progress photos. I tried everything including bleach and could not get the armour white to match the helmet. I am not a gifted painter so I finally found a helmet that matched. The problem was it was too small for me. It was just the opening so I dremeled it down enough to get my head in. Now that I have some photos, I can see I am getting closer but still have a lot of work. The calves are too big so I will need to redo those. The ammo pouch isn't staying in place on the shoulder, and I need to make a lot of little adjustments to the fit. Always looking for other suggestions.

Decided to try and whiten the armor. The previous owner used abs paste for the joints but did not sand, so I started the sanding process. Going to look for a hand held sander this weekend to possibly speed up the process

Ok, I was able to get back at this. I cut the butt plate a little more, added the tabs, and changed the connectors. From the pics it looks more even with the kidney plate. I also noticed that the left calf is not straight so I am going to have to redo that one, but we are getting there. Any thing else you see I should change or adjust before submitting?

Ah, thanks Sal, yes I am on the west coast so I will check out Joanne'sNot sure where you are located, but the fabric store Joanne’s on the west coast sells nylon by the roll. It’s pretty inexpensive and can be cut to size for all the straps

"Exactly what I was thinking. Jason what are you using for connecting material? Have a interior photo "
Tony and Sal thanks for the help, I am using the snaps and elastic process to connect the kidney to the butt plate.
"You may want to add a little strapping on the sides of the butt plate so it pulls it in and sits against the kidney better, at the moment it's angled over.
If that doesn't work you could always try adding some tabs to keep it in alignment."
Q Thanks for the help and pics. I like the Tabs suggestion. That should help. Total goof up on the holster. Just got it and was a little too excited for the test fit to check. Thank you. The knee ammo pack is a little large so I will need to remove it and cut it down. I will round the edges as well.

Sure thingAlright. 5 10 she should fit this armor proportionally unless it runs large. That said, the posterior (butt plate) should reside under the Ab, can we get a side photo (arm up)

After a little break I was able trim the back side , well actually I trimmed it three times and used a heat gun. The trimmed one is on the left, lol if you couldn't tell. How does this look? Is more trimming needed?

Thanks everyone, I bought the armor from my GML. Here is a photo of the armor and the bucket I am working on. I was originally going to build an ESB TK, so I know I will need to repaint the teeth gray.

Thanks, I can dirty the bucket a bit and I don't mind living with it but I am concerned it will not pass approval with the two colors
