Looking good! and very organized

Made this the other day for my Shadow and have extra pieces to make one for the Hero "yeey" ...made a support-pole for my plastic "mannequinn" using a 30lbs plate, wall mounted door stop, scrap abs, double sided tape, aluminum rods and some soft velcro and printed a Cog and laminated it. Added som duct tape to make a snug fit Put it tohether and then added the scrap plastic using double sided tape with soft velcro underneath to make it more steady and easy on the floors. Ended up putting some soft stuff on the door stop as well and it worked out pretty good. Drilled a hole.....see were to drill? Ready to get dressed...sorry for all the black and I forgot the helmet at home (removed the "feet" as they are no longer needed for support and as a bonus it makes dressing easier). It will be better when I get some stuffing the keep everything lined up properly...instead of wrapping myself in duct tape I will use an inflatable mannequinn and stuff it with pillow cushioning since it won`t be inflated for obvious reasons

The box: Started with some plastic, made a 4x4 inch plate (perhaps it`s too big?) Cutting the sides Glueing it together Using the glue as a reference for size and cut the backplate down afterwards and the strip will become the holder for the hook. added some strips for support and for the glue to have more to hold on to and gave the strip a bath and bent it in shape. That`s the progress thus far, any suggestions would be very much appreciated

Thank you Sir and yeah the armor really looks Amazing!

Thanks you and me both

Let`s see if this work....this is my ANOVOS shadow.... ...it worked, great! So..this was my first attempt on the comlink... ...wasn`t happy with it so here`s the second version...approvable?

Thanks me too and as I don`t have Jedi-patience the armor can`t arrive soon enough It´s a good thing I can work on the other stuff in the meantime

Greetings exalted ones TX 99665 turning to the White Side after spending some time in the Shadows I orderd my TM Hero-kit (1.5mm) about a week ago and really look forward to another build, as many of you states, it`s really addictive! This build will be "all-out" meaning screen-used strapping method, grappling hook and comlink and I really hope I can make it look like it`s from the movie #fingers#crossed. I like to make stuff so I have started with the comlink and gappling box (pics to follow) ordered the hook itself (can`t make that one) from blockaderunner and hopefully it will arrive soon. The switch and rectractable wire is also en route. The armor itself looks truly amazing and I hope I can make it justice! And on a final note: I look forward to interact with you guys since that is a big part of the fun in doing a build On to the pics (as soon as I figure out best way to upload that is)

I second the inputs and would like to suggest that you ad chims to the biceps and abs-paste the seem, sand and polish it out and then you can have the correct width on the cover strips. Or..ask for a new set of biceps as well and be careful when cutting it. Drop boxes would also look much better if the inner box is flush with outer. Keep it up

Looking good, keep it up

Good work on your build and you got talented people helping you Been lurking in the shadows enjoying reading your build, after all I am a shadow trooper (at the moment) But anyways....it could be the angel of the photo (first in this post) but it looks like your butt and kidney should be further up making little to no gap between back an kidney so make sure these line up properly before you trim to much of your thighs and...funny picture and I think you should take another one with finished armor trying to arrest the statue

The Empire is growing stronger

It´s all back!!

TX 99665 requesting 501st access https://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=25259 Thank you Sir

I totally agree! And if I may make a suggestion Sir this thread should also get pinned -crickets-rs-stunt-build-for-the-vertically-challenged Sorry for the interruption Mandy - keep up your excellent work

This thread should be pinned! As I stated earlier there are some great advises here, both from you (obviously) and others that will help many builders in sizing and building their armor <br><br> And on a sidenote, sorry for hijacking your thread but do I qualify for your next Hallloween?<br><br><img src="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d1/dannemelin/IMG_20170625_190949_zpsyvtile56.jpg"alt="IMG_20170625_190949_zpsyvtile56.jpg"><br>

Small update: Got the correct straps, "hook", cambuckles and changed the webbing and a serious update on the blaster Front Left Right Back

Great build Anovos offers a commander helmet and it looked cool so I wanted to check some builds and I´m definitely gonna buy one now after looking at your build (easier than painting )

I spent 225USD and about 1/3 was shipping cost to Sweden.....I made 2 ( cost is for one) and it was a great and fun build and so easily done thanks to the awesome turtorial with screen accurate parts list. Many thanks again to the makers of this build
