Hi Shawn. Welcome. Looking forward to following your build and journey. Ask lots of questions and share lots of photos.

Hi Ian. Welcome to the FISD. The journey to build a stormtrooper May seem daunting at first. The key is research. The links above will guide your research and help you immensely. There are many very knowledgeable people here on these boards that will also be a huge help. Once you are ready to begin, start a build thread for help and advice and be sure to ask lots of questions. We are here to help you get there. Looking forward to following your build.

Welcome Ryan. Looking forward to seeing your build

Awesome. Looking forward to having 2 shiny new TK’s added to the ranks.

Looking good. Good luck Justin.

Those shoulders really tightened up nicely. you will want even gaps between your biceps and forearm and forearm and hand plate. You can remove return edge on the forearm if needed, or trim the inner curve some to reduce armour bite. Some have put a bit of padding in to hold the armour away from the inner elbow as well. Moving the forearm down a bit may solve it. I don’t think that there is any issue with centurion with respect to trimming. Just the complete removal of return edge at the wrist is required.

Congratulations Cormac. Can’t wait to see your first troop log entry.

I found that putting Velcro under the shoulder bridge, and then sewing the other piece to the white elastic kept my shoulder elastics from pulling out. with respect to the snaps pulling through the elastic, I typically double or trooper the elastic where the snap goes through and always burn the hole for the snap post with a soldering iron. Original photo before the Velcro with elastics pulling out Side view with the Velcro in place no more shoulder elastic pulling out Triple folded elastic snap

Congratulations Marcel. Welcome

Not sure if you got this sorted yet. This is the email that Mark from AP props sent me after I failed at several attempts to attach the silicone hand guards. The Lepage glue and promoter is available in Canada Hello Gerarld Sorry forgot to mention, you need CA glue with promotor that's the only thing that will work. Just apply a very thin strip all around approx 1 cm from inside edges, don't put any in the middle so when the gloves stretch there's less stress on hand plates. Mark (AP)

Congratulations Bart. So glad you made it through and are out and trooping now.
