Dos and don’ts when building an ANH Stunt Stormtrooper

[CableGuy[TK]]

Hey troopers,
 
I think we all know that this very forum is a hot bed of experienced troopers and helpful information. Years of experience and TK knowledge.
 
To that end, here are some of the key features, (sometimes subtle, sometimes obvious), that I feel really make an iconic ANH Stunt Stormtrooper, all in a simple, easy to digest video.

 
Topics include;
-brow height
-eye trimming
-ear trimming
-vocoder painting styles
-hovi tips
...and more
 
 
Enjoy the video, and please feel to ask any questions or comment. :-)

Y'know I literally said we should make one of these to Andrew like a week ago. Great timing.

Haha. Sign me up. ;-)

Loads more on my channel discussing the finer details. :-)

Aw - many thanks, Jesse. I'm too deep into the rabbit hole to get out now!

I'm still without a TK armour but there will come a time ... and when that time comes, ANH Stunt version is the one of choice. Have a GREAT day Dan.

Does the covering strip for ANH stunt need to be on the front and back of the thighs and calves?

Yup. Cover strips on both sides for all arm and leg armor.

Hey trooper,

Yes. The original suits had cover strips on the back and front of the thighs and calves. The rear of the calves are usually a little wider as they halo to cover the fixings at the rear. 

Here’s some nice examples from the image gallery. :-)

[OperatorAF[501st]]

Perfect. Thank you also very much. I’ll get right on those cover strips.
