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.

If I were to create an Enoch, I would buy a ROTK to base it on, to get the dimensions right!

 

The shins, thighs, biceps, forearms and the AB is hard to say that it isn't parts directly from a ROTK, and one of the things I've felt most of the time when I see builds is that the way the AB is being printed is off in the dimensions, the buttons on the AB seem too large, and the bottom edge of the AB usually ends too far up above the belt (or it just looks obvious like that because the printed dimentions are a bit too large, leading to when you tighten the belt around your waist, your waist looks much smaller than the AB itself).

 

I think that it's just the normal ROTK armor that they've gone for there (AB), and cut it so that the belt tightens on or near the bottom edge of the AB and not completely below it.

 

On screen grabs I find it hard to say for certain that the AB would end above the belt.

 

The shoulders look a bit wider than the normal ROTK and seem to have a different curve

 

The chest as you say and know about is most likely not a direct child of the ROTK chest.

Chest armor, backplate, shoulders are larger and squarer on the bottom.

 

Research is the key with this one, as the CRL is not finished it's up to you to match what references there are.

 

Here is the current CRL thread

Extra important in this research is to not use the Hot Toys figure as your primary reference, try to use the screen grabs primarily - and try to verify anything you find against the Hot Toy if anything just to give yourself more confidence in the findings

Good answers 👌👌👌 

 biceps, forearms and shoulders is done so I think i will go with them anyway.

 

I have some research to do this evening then.

 

Edit:

after looking at some reference photos i start thinking of thigh and shins are the same as ROTK? I can't see much difference between them

That's what I think too, regarding the shins and thighs! Btw if you're buying a R1 kit anyways, might as well use the biceps and forearms too if you're not using them for anything else, just throwing it out there!

You may find something close on the Clonetroopers forum, I don't think anyone has posted a template/pattern to date.

Hey!

 

i hope everyone had a great summer!

 

eveything for this build is printed, YAY!

i did a quick first test and it not fit that good as i hoped 

 

Chest armor is to high, shoulders need to be closer. and biceps need to come up a bit. and i notice that i painted the left gauntlet (on picture) wrong color. But hey im getting there :)

 

[SwedishTX]

Next week im going to order boots and gloves.

 

speaking of gloves, it pretty hard to find something similar here in sweden, but i found this and i just curious about the color, im colorblind when it comes to red.

 

 

 

what you guys think, could these work?
