Old trooper aiming for anh hero tk

[steinandre[501st]]

Been a 501st member since 2009, got a hold of a ap tk kit last year, sans the helmet (sourced from DA) my plan is to build a replica Luke anh hero tk. 

 

Any spesific threads for this particular build? Om finding it hard to find specific info om that particular suit. 

 

Im 170cm tall, basically around hammils height. So i would love to make a replica of the armour he wears in anh. 

 

So far i have found out his helmet most likely has elleven stripes on the left cheek and thirteen on the right? Please correct me if im wrong. 

 

Anywho, im just dipping my toe in, but seem to have contrated a tm kit as well, woch eoll become a td.

Hello and welcome aboard, a great thread full of information

I went full Hero adding the grappling hook and box and a comlink, gets people asking "hey why do you have that and other troopers don't?" There are 3D files available for the hook and box. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/stormtrooper-grappling-hook-anh?srsltid=AfmBOooefTF25ZbbI-bxWX2H0OBFWcO6XonbkpAvriXAINjNivX6J347

 

I hand built my set 

 

 

Here's a great Hero Promo build

 

Stunt/Hero differences

You will also find with swapping the helmet and a few other items you can do 3 variations of the TK, ANH Hero, ANH Stunt and ESB (also HWT with a pack and pauldron)

Don't forget to check with the ANH Hero CRL https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_anh_hero

 

Good luck and looking forward to seeing your build thread soon

Hello and welcome to the forum Stein Andre!

I've got the grappling hook too as a Hero Stormtrooper and I love it! You can even pick stuff up if you can't reach something! 

 

You have an attaché in your area that I know organises build parties in his garage outside Oslo (if I remember correctly), reach out to him in a PM why don't you!

Even - @Bobafett75

 

You're well sorted with the threads that Glen posted! Good luck!

Rhanks a million people. Will dive into the info provided, and hopefully be able to post a build thread in the near future.

Welcome to FISD! We have tons of resources here at your disposal! Know that the shade of white used by different armor vendors can vary, so I'm curious how your DA Props helmet will match up to your AP armor. My own DA Hero helmet is more creme in color, similar to RS or other European-based armors. I look forward to following along with you on your stormtrooper journey!

Welcome, Andre!  There are a LOT of references available here for almost every aspect of Luke's armor.  At 5'9" he was a little shorter than the Stunt TKs so there were certain alterations on his armor that are completely acceptable at all levels of Hero approval.

 

For instance, most noticeable were that his chest plate and shoulder bells had no return edge on the bottom, the biceps (and other parts) were cut shorter than were used on standard Stunt armor.  If you want to duplicate these it's fine and dandy (and screen accurate).

 

If you need close-up references you can find them in the gallery section (link here), but if there is anything specific you have a question on just ask.  We are here to help!
