Salome Posted January 11 Report Posted January 11 (edited) Hi all, asking for build assistance again. So I sent in my application for the 501st and the recruiter found quite a few fixable issues. He said that the thighs need to be trimmed shorter, so should I trim from the top and go all around the top thigh? Do the thighs have to have a return edge? He also recommended that my ab, kidney, and butt plate be pulled up by suspenders. Any directions/advice on how to utilize suspenders when I'm already have all kinds of strapping inside? And I've had nothing but issues with my shins and he informed that my rear shins need to be fixed. Does the cover plates have to be straight when worn? And I've used all sorts of velcro and they still go wonky when I put on the shins. StormTrooper1.pdf Edited January 11 by Salome Uploading images issues Quote

Doggydoc[Staff] Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 Hi Maria. Yes, trim the thighs from the top. You do not need a return edge but make sure you follow the original shape all the way around the top of the thigh (the cut piece should be the same width all the way around). For the other questions, we will need photos to help you. Uploading photos to the site is not possible as the space is very limited. Most use photo hosting sites like imgur or flickr and copy the direct link into the post. 1 Quote
