As you said, there's a good thing and it's only a plastic matter. Enjoy building your armor and consider in this project and in life, there'll be always challenges, fails and good things. Don't look back Trooper, keep on going ahead, you're doing an amazing work. Keep it up. .

Congratulations Trooper, Welcome to the Legion !!!!

Congratulations Thomas, Welcome to Centurion!!!!

Hi Chris, welcome to FISD. Glad you're on the way to becoming an Imperial Stormtrooper. Mine is an RWA too and I'm so happy with it. Looking forward to see your building process photos and feel free to ask here all your questions and receive comments and feedback from our very experienced Troopers. Good luck.

Yes, the length is just right. and the bubble lenses looks great to me and just as the crl states: Lenses may be flat or bubble, green or smoke, sufficiently dark enough to obscure the costumer's eyes Keep on doing a great work.

Hi, most people here use Imgir to post photos directly into a post. Check this link please. Cheers

Hi C, welcome to FISD. A-Tube stripes are medium blue, numbering between 9 and 16 per side with the curve bends extending backwards. B- Ideally, the tube stripes are positioned approximately a pencil width from the side of the cheek C- They should be roughly 2.5mm to 3mm thick. 9-13 count per cheek You can apply tube strips decals to the helmet also (they are acceptable for every level). Here a couple of reference photos Hope this can help. cheers

Hi Thomas, you did an amazing work with your armor. glad to see your Centurion request. Looking at your EIB submission, you may want to add a close photo of your forearms to see that your have removed the return edges as requested in EIB. "And lastly, although you did a fantastic job removing them from the inner edges, the "no return edge" requirement includes the area inside the "hump" as well. 4 minutes with a Dremel and you will be good to go! " Your Centurion Badge is just around the corner trooper !!!!

I had a case like your some time ago, what I did was to trim the cod and butt , in the photos you can see that I took my armor and used it as template and the other 2 photos is the result. hope this can give you and idea of what to do.

Yes Brad!! cool mate you're on the way now ! The build process is terrifying when you open the BBB for the first time and see those million pieces but when you start the process and with a lot of info, videos and of course the FISD troopers, everyone survive (no one left behind ) . For your Blaster you can take a fast way for approval in basic with a Rubies one and later you can look for a better and expensive one to apply for higher levels (just my opinion ) Check this out

Hi kyle, you may want to check out the 2 following Pre-Approval post of WTF armors, also you can check other pre-approval applications with other armor makes Here you can check other submissions https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/193-request-tk-pre-approval/ Hope this can help.

Hi Emily, for me, the Helmet is always the most challenging stage of an armor build , you're right in taking a break About your return edges question "Is there a rule of thumb on how snug they should fit? Certainly, there's no a stone written rule, it's most about how it looks on you and how consistent it is with the rest of the armor. I mean something like you don't have big biceps and slim forearms. there must be coherence, for that the reference photos and the photos of the complete set are very useful: biceps and forearms together for example. I have removed the return edges on the top. Is there any benefit to leaving the return edges on the bottom? Most troopers, me included, prefer to remove all return edge or leave a few (2 mm) top and bottom. I highly recommend you to take a look to the following post , I'm sure it is going to be so useful on this matter. This other link is for and WTF armor building thread that can give some tips for you project. This is the clue to an successful project and investment, Asking questions, search for info, measure twice and cut or glue once. keep on doing a great work . Cheers

I think this building thread could be useful to have some tips for your project. Cheers

I have used google and typing the same (talking about stormtroopers things) , usually google include into the list Whitearmor.net results also, so this is a good option too. cheers

I have typed " E-11" or try "E-11 Blaster" Usually it's necessary to type different words or words combination to find exactly what you're looking for. "trial and error". but remember you can always ask all questions, we are here to help. "Troopers Helping Troopers"

Brad, I have found these forum posts that may be interesting and usefull for you: Cheers

It looks great in detail. Just for your consideration I noted a detail in the mold compared to my Praetorian. This is just a comment, I think both are expensive and great quality and have some details. If you want I can take some pictures of my E11 for you to compare. cheers

Hi , I have started with a Hasbro Mod E11 , but when I decided to go for Centurion Level I had to change it, now I'm trooping with a Praetorian E11 Blaster, hard Rubber made and very accurate and excellent, (my own opinion), for trooping in case of droping it. Another option that some troopers use is a DIY resin kit from Doopydoos , but not always in stock. https://www.doopydoos.com/stormtrooper-e-11-complete-anh-e-11-blaster-kit-offer-2685-p.asp here a build thread for this kit. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/16135-doopydoos-all-resin-e-11-build/ Cheers

Wich maker is your armor from?

Hi, I think the following post can be helpful for all about return edges. Cheers

Hi Brad, Welcome to FISD, glad you have started your new mission as a future Imperial Stormtrooper, feel free to ask questions and looking forward to see your first photos.

There's no way back Trooper, go for Centurion!!

Hi Emily, from my point of view, there are two ways 1- Using ABS paste to fill in the holes. 2- You can just twist a little bit forward the low part of the ears while the rounded section remains still , just to cover the holes and still being looking good. (personally I would try this option first) Excuse me for the bad drawing but it's difficult using the mouse. hope this can help you. keep on doing a great work.

It looks just right. keep on doing a good work and achieving your goals cheers
