Looks like a good fit, but would be nice to see a photo with a bit more context.

 

Good work.

i can try take a picture with all later

[SwedishTX]

Think i have made a big mistake on this project. I have printed so much and used my shadow under suit for reference. Now when i look at the suit on sheev's emporium the material feels thick? Does anyone here bought it and can tell how thick it is?

 

I also asked sheev about it but I dont know if he is able so answer fast.

[SwedishTX]

Update!

 

i just ordered the suit from Sheev´s emporium! Which means i must stop my printing and painting untill it arrives so im sure about the scaling is correct!

 

Happy building!

Great to hear, always best to try on your armor with the correct undersuit, especially with a ribbed, padded undersuit. Hopefully the wait won't be too long.

Tried a new method on the gold leafs and i want to share it with you!

 

yesterday i repainted the shoulder armor and add gold leaf for the third time with great results! 

I dab the surface with a makeup sponge and apply the gold after 30 minutes, use a fine brush and then when you are happy with it, use your finger! most of the wrinkles will disappear ( if wrinkels is correct term  )

Wow that is really night and day compared to before!

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Looks much better 

[SwedishTX]

Thank you 

 

 

 

[SwedishTX]

Yo!

i hope all of you had a wonderful christmas! 

 

No update on the suit yet, but i know it will be top notch!

I bought tk shoes from a friend in SG, they was to small for him and perfect on me!

i don´t remeber what Nairy told me if it was roughe one shoes or Fotk?

 

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Rogue One and FOTK use the same boots, they have a zip on the inner sides, Original Trilogy has elastic on both sides like your photo so not acceptable for Enoch

 

• Boots are above ankle height and the same style as the First Order TK. Chelsea type boots in the style of OT TK are not acceptable.

hah now i feel stupid for not did enough research before i bought them  

[SwedishTX]

I hope all had a nice new years eve! 

 

Thought i made a good deal with the shoes but it was a step bakwards  

 

I made another try to apply gold leaves and it turns out great, let mee hear your opinions before clear coat it

That looks really nice! Very smooth yet with pleasant imperfections.

Great work brother 

[SwedishTX]

Thank you both 

 

I´ts time now to cut out the lenses, i made a couple before but i dont know where they are.

i hope i can bend them enough and still see in them.

 

 

 

 

[SwedishTX]

i bend it as much as i could, is it enough or should it be more " out side" the eye holes?

 

i know the crl says ( level 2 ) "Eye Lenses are domed in shape." 

there is a guy on etsy selling eye lenses to this build but the reviews isnt that good

 

only just thing i dont like with it is the gap ( check the arrow)

Some makers of files supply a moulded eye plug, once printed and smooth you heat (heat gun or in oven) acrylic sheet and pull down over the plug, this gives you the curved shape. Some makers offer files for resin eyes already shaped to the mask. In the past I've even seen some even used spoons as the mold for pulling heated acrylic sheet over.

Yeah i have those files. I tried to shape lenses but that plastic start to bubble. I just order acrylic sheet so i will try that again

Hello there!

 

Nothing happens on my build, still waiting for the clothes! But i repainted the helmet, i think it looks much better now and the gold is better.

Hey!

 

Small update! I have decided to print at new helmet, Rosario dawson is coming to comic con stockholm and I want her autograph on the helmet 🤓

 

I have another question to all experts on TK armors.

I'm thinking about buying a R1TK armor on etsy, what is the difference between R1Tk armor and Enoch's? 

Chest armor i know about.
