[Curvature issues]

I’ve been trawling through screenshots from the movie to get an idea of how the parts orient with one another and jeez, upon close inspection, that screen armour was pretty shaky

I’m thinking I might try this

dont want to wreck it but the mannequin I’m using is a pretty slim dude... might have to fatten him up a little

thanks  for the reply, I had thought about hot water.. might try that first as I definitely wouldn’t say I was skilled with a heat gun :)

Hi guys (I hope this is the right place to post this)

 

ive recently started a stormtrooper build, not going for screen accuracy, just a nice looking suit for mannequin display

 

Question 1 of no doubt many
The kidney plate is a different curvature to the back plate.. probably to allow for to bigger guys.
I want it the same as the back plate as that fits well

 

 I was thinking hair dryer/gentle heat gun and then eyeball it and then trim to fit
Anyone got any better ideas ?
Thanks
