daennika Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 That's a really good looking suit, Damon! Congrats! As a new Stormtrooper who got back from her first event, I assure you that preparation is very important. My advice: practice walking around with your helmet on, and if you have stairs use them! I trooped at Virgin Megastore in Paris and it was a Stormie's nightmare. There were over 5 flights of stairs... I was in a lot of stress because I couldn't see where I was stepping, and my armor dug into my knees pretty badly. Right now I'm fixing my thighs with foam padding to reduce chaffing when I climb up/down stairs. Good luck! And if you worry a bit, remember: you look awesome!

Damon TK 6144 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Thanks guys, yes after wearing the costume for a while, I soon realised that you need to get used to it and practice. I have been warned about stairs. Thanks for the advice. Damon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
