  1. So i thought i would start with the legs. This is a pre-owned costume so there are a few fitting issues which i need to overcome, the first of which is the left thigh. It has been glued but its too darn tight, this is as far as i can get it on my leg and its very tight at the top. I think if i trimmed away the lip around the top, it would just about fit. There is some overlap inside but its been very well glued and i have tried to prise it apart without success. The second issue is walking...I Can't.I have seen some troopers cut a section out of the back which is what i intend to do, and that would allow me to tidy up the bottom of the thigh and the top of the calf (ill-fitting now, due to my chunky calves) Would either of these adjustments be an issue when it comes to clearing?
  2. I appear to have opened a can of worms since taking the ears off. On closer inspection I have noticed thet the eyes are slightly off centre, so it’s going to take a bit longer than I anticipated! Is there anyone near weymouth with a decent workshop who fancies helping a newbie out?
  3. Thanks Dan that’s a massive help. I will start work on that soon and keep the post updated.
  4. Hi, so here is the helmet I have acquired (not built by me), I have provided lots of pictures. i think that the ears are not seated correctly, the painting needs removing and reapplying and obviously I need a new Hovi. Anything else I have missed? I also did close ups of the tear bumps (apparently These were on the original helmets?)
