I ( as in my wife!) can barley snap it as it is. if I go tighter I'll need to think about repositioning the snaps. I have however, reworked the position of the ammo belt around my thigh like @Chemi suggested. I'll post pictures of that soon.

Hi all. One of the happiest days of may life came recently when, on one of my own troops, my then 8yo daughter dropped in on me and, seeing other local 501st members’ children in costume, said she wanted TK armour to match mine. She is 130cm tall, about 4'3". This thread follows my efforts to finish the build before her birthday, which fell precisely on halloween. Although the build is retrospective, I’ll post the actual dates to give a sense of the timeline. It took me 2 years start-to-finish to build my ANH Stunt armour. I did hers in about 2 months. While trying to emulate Centurion-level armour wherever possible, I made a lot of special modifications myself to make it more comfortable for her and encourage her to troop. Hope it may be useful to anyone planning a similar project.

OK, folks, as mentioned in the title this will be my final (OT) E-11 build. Before I begin, let me give you a little background: This blaster was gifted to me by a dear friend who actually received it from a fellow trooper who has unfortunately passed on, and it needed some attention. The person who did the mods obviously had great intentions, but there were some issues which I have done my best to address. Keep in mind that during the time it was created it was a work of art, but with the advent of detailed screen caps and such I have tried my best to do it justice. Side note: I have been working on this for over a year off-and-on. Is it 100% screen accurate? Nope. After receiving it I dove into research on Airsoft E-11s, and found more than a few inconsistencies (mentioned later). I'm just doing my best to make it as close to screen accurate as I can, so bear with me.... Now, on with the show. This is how it looked when I started. Great in it's day, but just so many issues. 1. Copper tubing power cylinders 2. Wrong Selector switch 3. Shroud has a piece of black PVC glued inside. 4. Wrong muzzle. 5. Missing pieces on the magazine . I will have to strip it down to bare parts as best as I can. The first thing I had to do was remove the black PVC interior in the shroud, which was blocking all the holes. I drilled them out but it looked terrible. I ended up using a blow-torch to melt the PVC. It removed the interior as well as any chance of grass growing in my future patio area, but I am pleased with the results. Here comes the most difficult part. The previous builder had WELDED some sort of odd muzzle on, Sort of like an ESB, but not quite, so It's gotta' come off and be replaced. Ugh. The end of the shroud was not too pretty either. I cut off the muzzle and was left with this: To Be Continued!

hemos coincidido jejeje ok, gracias! espero este todo correcto

ya corregí la respuesta anterior. listo, gracias Rodrigo..

No se si viste las nuevas fotos, borré por que había una cosa que no me gustaba que se viese en el entorno de la foto. I don't know if that's about the new photos, i deleted the photos before because there was something around that i didnt like to be seen.

Nice work, soft pouches was the first thing I made for my armor after finishing, definitely helps the paint from getting scuffed and stratched

Galactic Armory released his Enoch armor files today, and here's a quick preview of what he has. To my eye, it looks better than the mcflyprint3d's files by a bit. Unless anyone sees massive barriers for these files I'll probably print this up in PETG and go from there!

I know it's too late now but if you paint white first it can fill any areas of tape which may allow seepage

Congratulations Trooper!

Congratulations Michael

Congrats Michael! Well done, sir! See you at L3 soon!
