Addertime[TK] Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) Take your time, do your research and savor the build. It can be tedious but it's also really gratifying. Same with painting the helmet. It's not hard, it just takes patience and perseverance. Be sure to look through the many build threads available here: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/80-anh-build-threads/ and particularly Ukswrath's build for clear directions when you feel lost. Most answers to your questions can be found there. Still, if you need specific help, we're here for you. Have fun with the build!
