here you go. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/category/24-anh-tk-reference/

Im hoping there are some that can chime in while im looking, but I am almost positive we have smoothing here on the forum that shows what the CRL was based off of. Maybe @justjoseph63 can help here?

That's great, but I can tell you, be VERY careful basing your build off any of the TK's you see in the movie. Some of them would not pass the CRL. Never EVER use it as a temple and ALWAYS go off the CRL. we have had troopers in the pass do this, copy a specific TK down to the imperfections, and be denied because a material wasn't correct. the CRL is put in place for a standard TK look, and there were "quick fixes" on set that would "disqualify" a TK from being accepted. If you ever have a question on something ask first before cutting. please

Ok awesome, I was just fixing to go look at it. Its one of those "over the top accurate" things then. No worries. Your looking good so far. cant wait to see the bucket finished. it was the first thing I did to get the "hard part" out of the way. and it was the most scary. I like you was "pooping" myself during the teeth. Luckily for me AM cuts the eyes for you, so I didn't have to worry about too much.

If you are shooting for L3, you may want to look at your ear placement. They should be slanted to the back, and not straight up and down. Cant remember if this is a specific requirement of L3, but I know it has been mentioned before in other submissions

I would definitely recommend a bolt that holds the lens in. This way if anything ever happens and you need to replace them, you can just remove the bolt and replace them. Also, you don't want the lens to completely seal around the eyes, but "float" so to speak. This way there is a way for the eyes to vent and not fog so easily

Wise choice. This way if something is wrong the vendor is also more willing to be able to help you out. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

All your points are good except the last. AM comes pre trimmed from the vendor and is a major selling point. So if this is in fact actual AM armor then weather you buy it here on Ebay or from AM it's going to come trimmed Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Actually I ended up going with Nylon everywhere but the shoulders and the right side of the torso and the chest to ab plate. it gives me the movement I need. I also built the kit with a little room on the inside.

Wanting to build ANH HERO Luke Skywalker Stormtrooper
Commander Gree replied to TK71169's topic in ANH Build Threads
Unfortunately I'm not sure your timeline is going to work if you want something that is ready to wear. I might be wrong but I think there is only 2 company that make ready to wear and they have years of wait time. You should buy a kit and build it yourself. You could have that done in a few months. Just my advice Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk -
Post some pics!!! stop being so secretive lol. just kidding, if you have a WIP can you link it? would love to see some "NEVER GONNA BE A CRL" work.

A story from a friend who was helped by the 501st

The Black series helmet is way more trouble than its work for anything but the R1 (even for R1 I think its too much trouble). Keep your eyes out for a used bucket, or contact the venders, their prices really aren't that bad compared to the BS helmet

Looks good to me!

Dont look so happy

Sorry could you be a little more clear for me on what your asking? would you be talking about a strap like on a bicycle helmet or something? if so, generally its just a strap of elastic with some type of cup on it, to hold your chin. But if you get a good amount of padding in the helmet, you shouldn't need a strap, unless your head is really small. Do you have a build thread currently? for padding some people use the bicycle helmet padding, some use tactical helmet padding, some use any foam padding they can find lying around. If im not on the right track, maybe post some pics to show what your talking about, that would help a lot!

Good work mark, But we both know your not stopping here at EIB, so the things I am pointing out are more an issue for L3. Need to take the return edge off the wrist side of your forearms, I would pull your arms up more, your biceps seem to be sitting really low. and then the seams of your sides will need to be taken care of. but I don't really see anything that will keep you from EIB. I would also like to add, if you get the chance in the future, get AM armor, man it would fit you so well in the mid section, along with everywhere else, you wont need shims or anything of the sort. then you take that Anovos armor and put it on a mannequin or turn it into a TD. Looks good bud, good luck!

JeklynHyde's RS Prop Masters, ANH Stunt Build
Commander Gree replied to Jeklynhyde's topic in ANH Build Threads
I think you could pull the chest up a little. I almost had both my bridges touching. but yes you will need to trim. Everything else is looking pretty good so far. -
Yep, this Velcro is the way to go.

These photos are the same from my EIB submission. I have not gotten to the suggestions yet as I have been busy working on other costumes, and life got in the way. but everything for Centurion should be here. I will say that I will be doing the "extra push" to the things suggested in the EIB submission, but don't feel they will keep me from L3. Name: Jordan Garrison/Squad: Star/Imperial Rough Riders TK-21523 Armor = AM Helmet= AM Blaster= E-11 Hyperfirm Optional Height = 6'1" Weight = 215 Boots = TK Boots Canvas belt = unknown (Second hand) Hand Plates = Justjoseph63 Electronics= Voice Electronics Maker Neck Seal = Darman's Props Holster = Unknown (second hand) Here we go!
