Sorry to hear brother. I will say this the Anovos black is much easier to crack then the white for some reason, weird I know but both my shoulder covers have cracked yet the white Anovos are perfectly fine

I swear I was thinking the same thing. My TK feels so much more sturdier compared to this TX. Thanks for the heads up on the shoulder bells.

So I had my first set back. While doing a fitting I had my girl help me and she accidentally snapped my shoulder strap  So I talked to a fellow garrison member who showed me this way. Get a piece of scrap and just use it to secure it on the inside. (It didn't completely snap off) I looked all over the internet for extras just in case. I know trooper bays black ABS is not as glossy as this Anovos kit so I found this place on ETSY storm trooper store and they are perfect for my back ups the black gloss shine is a match and they need just a little bit of trimming. Also they feel way more sturdier then the Anovos ones. So glad I found a back up. I was going to get the rubber shoulder straps and just paint them gloss black.

Those mobility cuts are the truth. Definite help when walking around in this kit.

[Are thin areas of helmet a concern?]

My Anovos is really thin around mouth area also. have to be careful and go light.

Looking good David.

 

My OCD is kicking in so at the moment I have couple suggestions. First the vertical Ab plate shouldn't have any return edge on it (rounded edges), they should be squared.

 

Secondly, if you're you're using snaps and nylon or elastic for the section connections you can reduce the return edge on most section to about 1/8". This will allow for more movement and less chance of chafing.  

Yea I plan on doing more trimming to bring in the return edge. And I'm just going for basic approval.

Hope to see you finish this kit. I also did this one. Was definitely worth the roller coaster of emotions building it. But once finished you will be so satisfied and proud of your work. Keep it up bud.

Amazing how shiny the armor is once you've pulled off the protective layer

Super shiny but I noticed that it leaves a lot of finger prints on this armor.
