Short trooper issues

[quick0817[TK]]

So I am a short somewhat stalky build I guess and I have an issue with helmet. I have a shirt neck and the helmet seems to catch on shoulder bridges. I can't turn my head much. If I add padding then eyes raise and I really can't see.

 

Any suggestions?

I am short too. It's one of the many issues we have in armor. I can't turn my head more than a couple of inches and can't look up or down. There really isn't much you can do. About the only thing I can suggest is to adjust the padding to get closer to the mask. That will give you a bit of extra vision. Other than that, hope for a magical growth spurt.

Looks like you could bring the chest plate down some.

That's why it's good to have a good wrangler ;-)

What kind of armor is this? I'm short myself and I've had to makes some mods on my armor.

I am waiting for my armor kit to arrive and will have to adjust it as I am 5"8 and 180! I am curious which armor you have as well.

What armor do you have. Honestly that's not too short. In the movie the traditional trooper was 5'8" to 5'10" and 170 lbs. could just be the armor you have

I have ap and after that pic I brought chest down with straps to the ab and cod. I can slightly turn left and right and that's all.

It's really not made for crazy amount of movement. Frankenstein motion lol. As long as your feel comfortable.

I used to have the same problem.  The solution is simple. Smaller Bucket !

I bought the ATA works bucket, and cleaned it up, as it comes  pretty rough. The bottom of my bucket no longer strikes my shoulder straps.  

 

I 'used to be 5'8" (before my discs got all smooshed after running 6 mi a day.  I might be somewhat above 5'7" now.

Where can I find an ATA works bucket?  I am getting ANH stunt armor this weekend and the bucket the guy has looked like an EFX helmet. I want to get ANH stunt bucket ASAP that can be approvable. 

 

I have thought about resculpting the ear bars and filling in the holes in the back of a Black Series trooper helmet I have and from what I can tell the rest is good on the basic CRL, but I am still unsure if it could get approved for a basic.

Contact the team at "ataworks@yahoo.com"<br><br>

They respond pretty quickly to emails. The full armor is a long wait list, but I'm sure a bucket you can get pretty quick.
