Also I recommend to trim the brow. It’s common for rs to extend the brow further than needed. Also might want to pay extra attention to how your shins like up with the upper leg, make sure the line is straight. You also will need to take a back picture. Goodluck

Better late than never trooper

If you’re looking to get multiple costumes then I’d look toward an officer or bridge crew. They are much more affordable if you’re looking to suit up some mannequins or have lots of options. Hard armor is the best but also the most expensive.

Thanks, glad it was taken care of

Welcome. Scouts are awesome and much more comfortable but less recognised during events. The classic stormtrooper is definitely recommended. It may over your budget but I recommend RS for ANH armor. They are the best of the best!

Welcome! Do you know what vendor you’re going with yet?

Congratulations trooper

Yeah avoid starforge, 850 isn’t bad or if you can get ahold of a second hand anovos. DO NOT buy directly from Anovos but they are the king of the first order trooper hands down. Maybe 850 for armor and Anovos helmet at least? They go together well

There are some tutorial threads to show what @Hesikayasaid.. (I never figured it out so I rock the “I” haha)

Welcome! The thread you’re looking for is here: Its smart you avoided stormtrooper store. We unfortunately do get people sometimes that find out the bad news AFTER they buy. I was close to buying rubies before joining here on FISD, thank goodness I saved the 800$ Here is another thread on who to avoid:

I know that trooperbay has the scope and counter but anyone know of a place for better quality? I’d like to have my 501st id as the counter. Is there a place or do you all just print it off? Printing it wouldn’t be hard but I’m not sure how to attach it on my rs rubber blaster.

Welcome! Read the vendor list if you have not already, I personally have rs and they were great. Are you wanting commission or kit?

Rs is fantastic. Make sure you ask for the latex hand guards from Andrea when you order. It’s almost level 3 out of the box. goodluck future trooper

Goodluck with your build

That isn’t looking too good trooper. The lines would be easy to fix but the mouth is a different story..

Can we get a thread delete @themaninthesuitcase Or other staff please

We all know there are many rip off armor makers. I feel bad for the guy, he definitely doesn’t have the trained eyes we have or the know how. I (along with countless others) have accidentally purchased from JediRobe or Rubies due to our lack of knowledge at the time :/ But because of this caring, wise community we now have a greater view than what we had before. We care and help each other.. Let’s show that same care for “weirdos” like this.

Just watched the movie. Finished strong but I still have questions... hopefully we will get some great cannon stories to fill the gaps

How do I upload and resize for iPhone

Good job completing the costume! I noticed that the belt is very low. It should be right underneath the last button on your stomach. Also the left shoulder bell is far too gapped from the chest piece. Make sure you keep your shins aligned with the thighs. On the back there should be a minimum gap between kidney plate and back plate, almost like one line; no overlap. This is a good start. I’m sure others will be able to help you further, I will be checking back. Good luck!

I went out and bought the 3 step Novus kit. Thanks @Sly11

Hey everyone I am currently waiting for my rspropmasters armor to ship out this next month. I ordered a full commission but wanted to gloss it to give an extra shine or gloss in between troops. I ordered my armor in ABS plastic and am wondering if it’s painted white or if it’s cut white. As in will i be able to spray a clear gloss over it or do I risk ruining the paint underneath? thanks

Although the lines would have to be redone. They are too straight

Looks good. 3 screws, 4 humps and looks like s liner. good purchase

Is the jet trooper likely to stay in FISD or go to Spec Ops?
