Thanks ! And I'm currently building a scout trooper for my wife, it will be awesome to troop in family

I managed to get a picture of the event My son is the Jawa, my daughter is the shadow trooper. And me as the TK Yes, the little white dots are snow. It was not too bad, around 0 celsius. Snow and rain alternating.

Hell yeah ! She'll probably do her first troop this weekend, so the shining is for tonight !

Ok, so I only trim at the bottom to shorten them, and round the bottom. Easy enough for me, thanks

Thanks for the comments ! I'll probably let her do a couple of troops before doing any big modification, and check how it goes. So far on my todo list : - Clean the scratches and polish - Put foam in thighs - Trim the bottom edge of the chest - Change the helmet - Repair a belt crack @Todd : I'm not sure what you want me to do on the shoulder bells ? You suggest me to trim them in height and width ? I thought they were of the correct size.

Update ! I built the armor "as is" for the moment, just to see correctly what was wrong. Nothing too bad from what I see, except for the helmet size. The thighs need some foam inside to keep them straight, and I need to clean the armor with a bit of novus. And I need the ab buttons, I should receive them soon.

As I said, I got a crappy FX kit that I'll try to salvage. Since the wearer (my daughter) is not 18 years old it is not necessary to be 501st approvable, but I would like to be as close as possible. The helmet after some cleaning and repairing : Here are some pictures of the pieces put together for the first time : Since she is a bit short the body armor doesn't fit right, I must find a way to align the pieces properly. I'll probably align the ab and the kidney together, and cut the lower part of the kidney (or hide it under the butt, since she still may grow a bit ?). There's 4 holes on the kidney, don't know why ... And I discovered that the belt is cracked, I must repair it. I will maybe try to solder it with a solder gun, just to melt a bit the plastic. I began to glue snaps on the chest and ab, instead of just using elastics and glue.
