Starting to mark the return edges for fine trimming. Let me know if these lines look correct please? Forearms Bicep

Replaced the TD screws. 🫡

Thanks for pointing that out! Easy fix for me as I have some slotted screws hanging around. I will go ahead and glue the top abs part to the tube as well.

I worked on the TD yesterday. I made sure the overall length is 7.25” and the screw heads were painted black. I have not glued the top plate on yet but if it looks good as it is, I will do so.

Thanks Glen! I see they have these decals on Trooper Bay. I’m assuming these are the ones?

Hi team! Well, I kind of fell into this helping another in our garrison finish his ANH kit. He had originally purchased this one then found another that was built a bit to a taller frame…so this one was just laying around. I had been tinkering with an OT kit and thought ESB would be different plus I was always drawn to that film 🤫 Most everything seems to be trimmed and the MTK bucket is put together(that needs some touch up to the teeth and vocoder black paint areas. It also needs the ear boxes outlined in black. Please let me know if you see something out of the ordinary.

Nice work so far Jim! My helmet hits my yoke if I turn to far to the right or left. I adjusted my padding in the helmet and it made it a bit better.

Nice! This is build I started with as well for my first armor in the 501st. I learned a lot. I'm sure I will build another one of these down the road.

Nice work so far! Glad you tested the yolk with magnets first for fitment-I did the same thing so I could get a feel for it. I think that overlap on the yolk will be fine. I had a butt joint on mine however, it was a 3 piece set-up from WTF. I used Devcon and then Proflex to blend the joint.
