Palpatine1977 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I just have a question about trimming, I'm planning to do a build for a mannequin display, and I am just wondering should I just use the "default" mold lines aka the bump for the cover strip on each piece? It does seem quite large to me, but then again I'm not very big lol 5'11" 145. Would this also be more screen accurate/ look better on a mannequin since I highly doubt that they sized each suit for the individual in the movies If anyone had any reference pics or advice that would be greatly appreciated... And btw I will also be doing a separate, custom suit for myself (hopefully looks alright) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxPxRobbie[TK] Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 How big is your mannequin? Build it to fit that, I'd imagine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonnenschein Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 You can always use some foam as padding if the suit is rally too big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyTrooper[TK] Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) When I trimmed to fit myself I trimmed the mold lines so they would be covered by the recommended cover strip size.
