FN1313’s ANH Stunt Build thread
Once again, time to start another journey of armor building.
I just put a down payment for a Dave’s DarkSide Depot armor set. I’ve heard he is one of the better options for larger troopers and my thighs and calves definitely need absolutely all the width I can get compared to some kits. All those squats make armor worse to fit lol.
Anywho, just like my FO build kit I will detail the process here.
I’m having Dave build the helmet out for me just because I’m not full of time in
SHINS
Around the same time I started work on the thighs I started trimming the shins.
I knew I’d need to do the trimming of return edges and front before I could accurately size them to my shins/calves so I started there.
Bottom return edge removed
Top return edge marked
More detail on the other shin on the processes
Trimming the top (this was a PIA)
I would have preferred trimming from the inside out, but some angles were hard to get my exacto in place
