Awesome. Thanks!
-
Also what’s MTK?
-
I will check out MTK as well. Just looking for something that will hold up and won’t be crap like this current armor is
-
I might just go with DA props then. Priced well for what you get.
-
I live in Florida. But I’ve heard DA props is good as well and they fit my budget
-
That’s what I plan on doing as well
-
After my recent run in with Maker of things on ETSY I’m now left with where I can buy good armor without breaking the bank. I’ve seen reviews and have heard that DA props is good. what are some others to consider besides RS prop masters and The original stormtrooper.
-
I think I’m just gonna buy another set from a good seller. I know what to avoid now. Guess I’ll just sell this set or use it as a display
-
He’s on ETSY now. I unfortunately just bought my first armor set from him before I did my research. This sucks . Not really sure what to do now as I’ve spent over a month getting it ready for 501st approval
-
I’m new to forms so there’s a learning curve but I’m getting the hang of it. Appreciate it
-
I was able to take the ears off and redo them. I have another helmet coming in that I’m gonna take my time with so this current build will be turned into a sand trooper
-
This was a big gap. I tried a few times to fix it with no luck. The chaulk will come out just fine
-
Yes RS. Ok will do.
-
Just looking for guidance on this. I feel as though I screwed this build up from the beginning and I’ve been met with challenges after challenges.
-
My helmet was quite the challenge to assemble. Upon almost completion I noticed no matter what I do the ears have large gaps. To solve this I filled in the section with white chalking. Is this a lost cause? Will this get approved?
-
Better options other then E6000?

Thanks everyone! I will be sure to take the advice and rough up as well as leaving for up to 72 hours. -
No matter what I do E6000 just isn’t holding a bond and keeps coming undone. I tried using Zap a gap and that turned into a nightmare as well. Anyone have any luck using plastic bond or equivalent?
-
Got it. So no gaps. Ok I’ll have to redo them then. Good thing I’m using E600

So I’m building ANH armor and I’ve noticed that a lot of the pieces were deformed and it was near impossible to get them to butt up cleanly. Upon glueing the strips have some space in one side and they aren’t flush at all but they are definitely together. Is this a concern for approval? I’m only going for level 1 so basically bare bones basic approval.
