These shoulders are huge on me...

[Darth Hilarious]

I am quite skinny. I've trimmed the biceps and forearms of my suit, but the shoulder bells don't sit nicely around the bicep! Is there a trick for closing them a little? (heatgun, maybe?)

[Locitus[Admin]]

i wouldn't worry too much, once you wear the rest of the armour, all of you will be/look much bigger so it would make it look normal.

[Darth Hilarious]

I was partly thinking that. Also, I don't mind Warhammer 40K shoulders. I guess I'm just a bit over-worried about making things fit nicely.

Thanks for the super quick reply!

[Locitus[Admin]]

No problem!

 

And if you still think it looks weird, try posting a picture and the rest of us here could give you some input.

What type of armor is it?

[Darth Hilarious]

FX (or a recast thereof, which seems more than likely).

I have a similar problem with my Shoulder Bells....if i put them into what i consider a comfortable position they are actually under my bridges.

 

Been looking for a solution to it myself.

[TrooperVenger]

Any chance of getting some pictures of you wearing them? Maybe then we can figure out some sort of solution for you.

Yeah, I chopped close to three inches off my first FX shoulders. Maybe a little too much but they were HUGE. They practically covered my entire arm, reaching my elbows. I ended up replacing the elbows, chest & back with TE lineage armor.

Here's how I modified a set of AM shoulders which are pretty much the same as FX shoulders.

Mine weren't huge on me but I modified them anyway just a bit by heating them and squeezing them tighter.

[Darth Hilarious]

Sorry for the lack of pics. I would post some now, but I've already gotten helpful answers. Just to explain (which I should have already done), I'm not concerned about the length of the bells, but the girth is ridiculous on my skinny arm. I think I'll have a crack at heating them and pressing them closed.

Thanks everyone. The next round of blue milks are on me.

I'm selling my flexible hips ones for £20 mind?

I'm slightly tempted... but I'll decline.

If I screw these ones up, and yours are still for sale, however...
