Very nice so far.

 

One thing you could update is the detonator, TLJ actually had a sperate tube and the upper black slot and control panel were cut out showing the tube behind

Yeah the designer I believe has updated the file for that.

If I’m brutally honest, this build has been dragging on for 3 years now and I just wanna get it done

Modified BS lid

I added the rear groove by cutting a 1.5 piece of styrene at the height needed from the black section. Stuck that on with double sided tape.

Then VERY CAREFULLY went round with a needle file and kept going until the desired depth

After painting I added black vinyl in the recess running round the bottom

hi @funkster! Question (which I might have missed in the thread) - what filament did you use for your armor? And how is it holding up 2 years on?

Hey dude

Just used SunLu PLA+

Haven’t really worn it that much to be fair -
Been spending more time in other cosplays - but I had it out start of the year after being in a box for about 6 months and no issues

thanks! I am planning on printing part of my armor (back and chest) because the one that came with my KB kit it took big for me. Mostly I'm worried about warping in heat, so trying to decide between PLA+ and PETG.
