Finished all my padding inside. Still need to cut my lenses down and slap them in. Last time I did too much.

Cant wait to hook inside of my bucket up.

You got this. Just put a little time each day on it you will be finished in no time.

Good job fellas.

I dont know why the little videos didnt post. Wonder if I can hit all my targets holding my blaster like this. Haha.

Did some test fitting. Definetly going to switch to elastic for my straps because to much pull and a couple snaps pop off. Have to shorten up my bicep to forearm strap. Sand a little bit more on 1 of the shoulder bells. Need to finish this last shin allready. Overall felt pretty good. Just some minor tweaks. Oh and get a tighter fitting shirt I dont like the baggy little over laps.

Lifted the counter up higher on this bad boy. Should I paint the handle glossy black?

Reinforcements on the left thigh. Still need to fill with abs paste some places. Been busy with this battle buddy build for my son. The trimming and sanding on that thing is insane.

I will figure out how to lift this thing. And good idea about using a broom. The end cap does come off.

welcome. Your in the right spot.

Lots of reasearch and helpful people here.

You can delete.

Dont I need a spring in it also?

Thanks I was waiting for your input.

Ok so this came in mail finally.

thanks a lot

I cant find that helmet keep seeing adult ones.

It is actually a Rubies adult helmet! The shoes are just little (sorry, not sure what you might call them) 'plimsoles', or school gym type shoes with elastic at the side, painted. The moulded chaps on the battle buddy had to be removed as it was constricting the ankle, so her mum made her little craft foam replacements. So you get the rubies adult helmet.ok I was thinking it would be too big and look off.

yes sir.

Hello all hope all is well. My sons bday is on the 12th was wondering if any troopers could make a short video telling him happy birthday. I know he would love that. He is turning 7 years old and goes by little David. He loves star wars and especially the dark side. Thank you guys so much. Not sure how to get the videos I have an instagram acct for my build also under tat2trooper to store my pictures so could maybe send there? will also be posting his reaction to it on there also. Thanks again for considering this request I know its a short notice that is my fault for not asking sooner. Dads allways with the last minute stuff.

Also finally started this last left shin. Have to be very careful I noticed with this one so the knee plate matches up and looks good. So mostly trim from the back once you get the fronts matched up good with the knee plate. Been taking half inch at a time off the backs then test fitting then take a little more off just to be careful. Tomorrow should have it ready to lay a strip down on it. Any good images of left shin would help.

Got it I slowly tapped at it with this. And i heard some say a dab of 3600 to hold it up or can I use little white velcro?
