Walt's FOTK: Noob

[TK71015[501st]]

Hello from FL everyone,

Several years ago, I received my FOTK kit from WTF, but life happened and I am just now getting around to building it. I recently joined the legion as a Jawa, but this is the first complex build I've done. I will be the only FOTK in my squad, so guidance is limited.

 

I've completed the rough cutting and now I'm working on refining the edges. One thing I've noticed about my kit is that the forearms are far too long for me (I'm 5ft tall...yes I know I'll be the shortest Stormtrooper ever 🤦‍♀️). Does anyone have any advice on how to cut the forearms down to size? I'm assuming the only thing I can do is cut from the middle, and then fuse the two halves back together. If there's an easier way, I'm all ears! I didn't think to take a photo, and I'm at work right now, but I can upload one later if needed.

Hello and welcome aboard, I would think cutting in the middle and joining/filling would be the only option. 

 

Sha Sha has a great build for the shorter trooper 

 

 

A tutorial on adding photos via Imgur as the forum only allows a small amount of attachments
