SublimeBW[TK] Posted May 18 Author Report Posted May 18 (edited) We knocked out the belt today! I believe that is a wrap (for the armor), minus some tidying up. I will get full suit pictures after the covers on the belt cure. Note: the blaster in the picture is not my blaster kit from Troopacola, it is a less expensive one that I got to fill the void in my holster until I get that kit built. Also, excuse the messy garage.

SublimeBW[TK] Posted May 21 Author Report Posted May 21 Put on my entire suit! It was magical (my wife didn't tell me my armor parts were twisted and my belt cocked). That said, it is time to do some mobility cuts. Any quick tips on the cuts? Should I try to keep it at a minimum or go for a nice sweeping arc across the back and maximize the movement options? 1 Quote

Having a full length mirror definitely helps, most times your photographer doesn't know what is out of place Some great references here, don't go through the edge of the ridges For submission photos try to use a contrasting background, also not in the sun your GWL will thank you for it Quote

This is all the fantastic detail stuff I was looking for. I will start looking into it and figure out how to move forward with the EIB approvals (I built with Centurion in mind). 1 Quote

Let us know if you need any help or tips I love this comment. It should be something you have fun with, and not something to stress about. It's a hobby, right? ;-) Keep up the great work! 2 Quote
SublimeBW[TK] Posted November 18 Author Report Posted November 18 Before I forget, a BIG thank you to everything that helped me with advice along the way (including my build partner, who is not a part of FISD/501st, just an absolutely solid friend). @gmrhodes13 @Doggydoc @dblcross @TKSpartan & @FN1313, you guys get a special callout for answering multiple questions for me. I trying appreciate it as I hit a real rut when I got into my own head when I dorked up my first set of ears. I am not done yet, I still have the EIB process and my blaster to build, but will likely not make much progress on that until after the holidays. 3 Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted November 18 Report Posted November 18 Congratulations Brian, Welcome to the ranks. Looking forward to your EIB approval 1 Quote
