Stormy1992 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'll look into the brow trim. It was the u shaped needed. But I can look into a other trim if need be. But I'll leave it as of now:) thanks for the input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 The brow from needs to be bigger you mean? From the lip to the top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The5thHorseman[TK] Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Yes, it needs to be higher, from the bottom to the top. Here's a link: http://trooperbay.com/stormtrooper-helmet-brow-trim/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Thanks I'll get on it:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Update: I meansured the brow trim, it sits on a half and inch. The one off TrooperBay says "just over a half inch" other sources say a half inch also. It may just look small in the images but it seems of correct size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpoodoo Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 I just measured the brow trim I got from Trooperbay 2 weeks ago. It's exactly 15 millimeters or 19/32 inch. So yep just a smidge over a half an inch. This seems to be a standard width. It's what I also measure on a SDS Battle Spec and eFx ANH PCR.

Stormy1992 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Well I'll keep the one I have unless I completely need to swap it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The5thHorseman[TK] Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Then, it might just be me. I was under the impression it was too narrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gep Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 This is a well known shot of a portion of the helmets created for ANH the vast majority of which have 4 teeth cut out. There are a couple 3 tooth and 5 tooth. As we know, MOST of the three toothed helmets ended up Heros. The others, including the 5 toothed helmets are considered anomalies. Your 4 tooth approach was the way to go. To clarify, I don't ever remember mentioning 5 tooth as anything but an anomaly. I would not recommend it for EIB or Centurion. So, is a 5 tooth (10 total as Kyle has done) approvable for basic? The CRL is pretty specific about this for ANH Stunt with 8 total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Bryan, i see in that original photo top right bucket having 5 cut out.. Im going for EIB. Since the orginal photo has 5 cut out, wouldnt it be Acceptable? there are other cases of 5 cut out being shown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 (edited) 3 buckets, 2nd row from the top all the way right, and 2nd row from top 2nd to last bucket on the left. bottom row 2nd in from the left. all 5 cut out.

gazmosis[501st] Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Bryan: don't do the 5 tooth frown unless you have two buckets. Basic approval will be based on the 4 tooth frown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basic approval will be based on the 4 tooth frown Steve, I'm the GML at Bloodfin, so I'm asking from the approval standpoint, as Kyle would be sending his application in through me. I was under the impression that 4 teeth were the requirement per CRL for Stunt (EIB or Centurion not withstanding). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Question on the Biceps is there an outer and inner? seems to be.. may i ask which? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Batman[501st] Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Top two pics are the inner parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy1992 Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Well correct, I guess I worded it wrong. Is there a correct side. One side is different than the other, which seam goes in front and in back. Took a picture of both sides so you could tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormy1992 Posted May 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Alright, my forarems are correct (with the right being different from the left) but it seems I have the same inner bicept pieces. The one shown on the left in the given image. The ones I provided are the same for each arm. However the left to the right inner bicept piece is different on each side of the SAME side arm; which goes in the front and back seam? Thanks! Hope it makes sense:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
