Sly11[Admin] Posted July 8, 2020 Report Posted July 8, 2020 Hope you are studying that small amount of screen time this guy got, cause you need to also master that swagger 1 Quote
Nicker Posted July 8, 2020 Author Report Posted July 8, 2020 The swagger came well before a started this project.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

Nicker Posted July 15, 2020 Author Report Posted July 15, 2020 It’s taken a while, I guess the devil is in the details, but happy with this now it’s complete.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
11b30b4[TK] Posted July 24, 2020 Report Posted July 24, 2020 This kit is coming along nicely. I really like the incinerator. I added you to the roster. Keep up the good work. 1 Quote
Nicker Posted August 11, 2020 Author Report Posted August 11, 2020 Started test fitting the armor.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 You may need to bring your chest down a little, the shoulder straps are sticking up a bit. Nice work 1 Quote
Nicker Posted August 12, 2020 Author Report Posted August 12, 2020 You may need to bring your chest down a little, the shoulder straps are sticking up a bit. I figured that I would need to, but was concentrating on the join between the chest and back plates in these photos. Once I get this done the next job was to tighten the shoulder straps to bring the top of the chest plate in and down a little.Strapping a R1 kit is more complicated than my previous ANH kits.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
Imperial Valour[TK] Posted October 7, 2020 Report Posted October 7, 2020 Pretty excited to see this completed, that incinerator trooper was awesome on the show! 1 Quote
11b30b4[TK] Posted October 8, 2020 Report Posted October 8, 2020 I think we are in business. This is coming together nicely. Keep an eye on the side pieces, in the pic where the armor is stand off your shoulder, the front of the side piece is protruding from the bottom of the chest armor. 1 Quote
Nicker Posted October 8, 2020 Author Report Posted October 8, 2020 So, it has taken a while to get the fit sorted. When I’d made an adjustment at one point, it affected all others, but I think it’s getting there or thereabouts.Any comments before a start fitting the leg armor would be welcome.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
andylah[TK] Posted October 8, 2020 Report Posted October 8, 2020 yeah that fit is looking nice man loving this! 1 Quote
Nicker Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Posted October 9, 2020 Belt is now mocked upSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted October 9, 2020 Report Posted October 9, 2020 Nice work. Not sure if you where aware but the R1 CRL has just undergone an update so if you haven't as yet it would be a good idea to review what has been changed Quote
Nicker Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Posted October 9, 2020 I wasn’t aware, thanks for the heads up.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted October 9, 2020 Report Posted October 9, 2020 Troopers helping troopers. Also some new images have been added to the R1 gallery, a few show some nice details 1 Quote
Nicker Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Posted December 7, 2020 I’ve completed the full armor kit today, with the exception of the belt, I’m going for a full kit dress rehearsal tonight, when I can get some assistance. NOTE: this photo is a mirror image, so the knees are the right way around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
Sly11[Admin] Posted December 7, 2020 Report Posted December 7, 2020 Nice work, look forward to seeing the full image.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Nicker Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Posted December 7, 2020 First full test fit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Nicker Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Posted December 7, 2020 I have to rethink the attachment of the back box and need to adjust the thighs, but overall happy with the first test fit.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
