Veist

Would agree with 2 panels. The question is just, how are these connected, overlap or a different method

To me its not a full rear skirt. Picture below! It shows clear that both panels are seperate, and that the left panel is abouve the right Second pics shows for me that it really could be an extra panel above the two big rear panels. There is a clear line where the arrows are

So you say its pleated above and is not an extra piece at the rear?

When i started my kama reseach, i thought it is a third panel too.SInce it appears to be very floaty in the show. Looking at the second picture, i could be a panel layed on top of the two big ones, with border on both sides (border in the same color as the panel itself). Is it possible to get a direction this regarding soon? Since my friend who makes the kama for me is nearly this point

So, a bunch of photos: First, the blaster. Definitely bigger than i thought^^ Second, the chest and backplate, assembled with tape Third, me holding the chest as a size reference, yes i need to adjust the abs-plate Then my figurine with the helm, chest/back and the abs-plate There is some evidence in the show, that the top of his abs-plate is visible under the chest/back. If not allowed, i have to cut the abs-plate

I think the first pic shows that there is a clearly evidence of like bias tape, that is only in the right edge, but not on the left. So it looks to me like the right big part is under the left, and the left is folded abouve the right and is attached to it, forming the line on the left edge. For the border of all panels: The front and the hips seem to have a classical red border (like bias tape). But for the big 2 panels, it looks like their border is in the same colour as the fabric itself I also checked some references from the figure (and pic 3), but im unclear: For me, the waist band and the front parts are out of leather, while the hips and the 2 back panels are out of fabric. But this is only visible from the figure, not from the show, so i may be wrong about this. Additional point: to me the shoulder bells seem to be way shorter than regular TK shoulders

I think the trousers are burgundy like the top, this image shows it If the gloves are the same as the rouge one, should there be decorative stiching at the index finger for like Level 2 or 3? Also the hand grips of the blaster seems to be gold as well.

Thanks for that. Since i painted already everything gold and my last time working with gold leaf ended in a catastrophe (my whole room was golden)

So i heard some use gold leaf to make the gold areas. Will that be necessary or is "normal" gold color like mine fine too? Since my gold color matches the gold of the show Edit: i saw in the CRL creation thread that gold leaf for the cracks is just for Lvl 3 certification?

4h of scaling the chest and back. Test print will be sent to me, before we make the full print. Thats the scaling for now:

They are coser They are closer to the outside. a little more central than the pics although, but more on the outside

So i mistook the right and left shin. The openings are now are the outside. Although i did not found any clue in the crl if it has to be so or they have to be on the inside. What i will do: cover the cracks with abs sludge and remake them on the correct leg, so that the opening will be on the inside

First leg is done. Looks way better

I think i found a possibility. I can make a straight cut at the sides, and overlap the front with the back. That will make it tighter and i just have to clean the line. Update: I have now cutted, and glueing right now. We will see in a few days how the result is, but the fitting fest looked good.

Kama will be extended to get the correct lenght (Kama has the same lenght as the distance between kama top and helmet top)

Yeah i thought about that too, but i dont really know how i can do that. Dunno how and where i can make it tighter. This is the standard size of 850armorworks shins

(need to figure out how i can delete comments)^^

Some painting updates. Im painting the golden cracks and do weathering when the chestplate is ready, to make it all the same. Kama still the old, but the size of the parts look good i think. Probably have to make the main belt bigger.

First parts are painted. These are the easy parts that only have one colour Im painting the golden cracks later when i have everything else painted

Made the cracks today....took a few hours but looks good. About to paint the first parts now

Today i glued all the resin parts and im filling some seams right now with abs sludge/superglue Tomorrow i will sand everything, make the edges smooth and begin to dremel the scratches in the armor parts

I realized that the knee block has angled lower corners like the figure and the rest of the nighttroopers

Ab plate seems a little bit big, but i think i need all this space. I believe most of it will be hidden under the chest and belt?

Better files for chest/backplate? Or ab plate? Im not printing an ab plate
