Modification of free stl file for ANH TK trooper (likely never going to be approved)


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I found a TK stl file on thingiverse here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4667682#google_vignette and noticed the ab plate and cod piece weren't connected so I filled that in. The button panel also had incorrect proportions which I corrected to the best of my ability I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be approved given my crude modeling abilities but the part I added would be hidden by the belt anyways so I'll print it regardless. No other things I've printed for this project are approvable because I've only used the free stl file which I doubt is screen accurate enough for the 501st. Which things stick out the most as incorrect?

I notice that in the reference photo the line on the cod piece isn't centered. I centered mine but should it be off-center?

Is the whole plate off or just the line?

Also I noticed your codpiece is set behind the abdomen armor. It's hard to tell but to me the reference image from the CRL it looks in line or slightly ahead which is the way I have it setup at the moment. Is yours a different style or mine also be lined up like that?

Thanks!

Screen used armor

Majority of armor makes are offset, but not all, more images here

The cod is stepped backwards
