  1. Normal build & paint. The rest of the armor I am building with the minimum requirements of TK CRL I'm not going to post much detail about these parts, nor about the inner straping Right now, I have my upper extremities ready. The lower extremities are built, pending painting. Pending buy boots.
  2. Abdomen Start with the abdomen. The references show 3 vertical white lines, one in the center and two on the sides that are aligned with the lines on the chest. Additional, two rectangles on each side, white, horizontally parallel. The latter, the images show that they have some relief. I remove, everything that the abdomen of a regular TK has, leaving only the curved shape. Before continuing with the white lines, I want to measure my armor completely (torso), to have a guide on where to create these elements. __________ 02/23/2021 For the white rectangles on the abdomen, I designed a 45mm x 105mm rectangle, And seeing the references, these rectangles are not only painted, they have "relief". So they are 5mm thick. I got a 3d print, made of ABS plastic. I heated them to take the shape of the abdomen, where they are going to be placed and ready to glue them. Additionally, I drew the three white lines that are seen in the center of the abdomen. I found no reference that will tell me if it has any "relive". Similarly, with the dremmel, I did a little wear, way, I don't know the correct name lol. Then in the final finish they will be painted white. The two lines at the ends are aligned as best as possible with the lines on the chest. _____________________ 03/03/2021 Interior strapping pending, but modification work is done.
  3. I bought an Anovos armor at a very good price on ebay. I bought the white one. But it turns out I received black armor. Seller error. Now I have to paint and replace some parts, it complicates the work a bit, but I keep going. I already submitted the claim on ebay and the problem was "solved". CHEST But the chest, interpreting the drawings, I must eliminate or round the shape, in addition to creating lines on the sides. Here are the results. And after painting shoulders, helmet, back and chest, I put everything together for a bit of motivation and to get on with the work. (I'm not going to post the work on the helmet because many already know how to paint a TK helmet.) If we see the chest references the lines, they are not just lines, it is a thick cut that gets thinner as it reaches the bottom.
  4. Hello all! Kreel, appears in various issues of comics. And unfortunately the drawings are not the same. In issues # 59 & # 60 he shows us a more "realistic" armor. That's why I decided to modify an Anovos armor to emulate the armor of this character. I post this wip because the references are drawings, it makes it a bit difficult for me to interpret some things. Then I would like to receive some kind of help, recommendation on some pieces of armor. And I can't hide that I would love for this whole process work for a possible CRL. To start, I apologize for my English. _____ 05/04/2021 First "suit up" _______ 09/09/2021 References. Here you can see the complete comic, specifically # 60 that contains more images. https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Star-Wars-2015/Issue-60?id=148960 There are many references from many angles, so it makes the job easier. My first conclusions, it is required to modify the chest, modify the abdomen. I have doubts with the orange shoulder, is it a pauldron or an additional shoulder? It looks like an additional shoulder with the Empire logo, but in other issues they draw a pauldron. The rest of the armor I interpret as a normal TK, with a few different little details. Three different pouches, I have to analyze if I create them totally or if some Sandtrooper pouches work. Lightsaber, looking at the images, it is very similar to Luke's saber (ROTJ), with some modifications of course, I made a drawing. I will work with those details as I progress. I started modifying the armor. In the next post I show you my current progress.
  5. Are these models available to download somewhere? I am interested in working on them.
  6. Basic approval only? Or for level 2 will they work?
  7. For most armor grooves, matte black, then not an option?
  8. Great job on your armor. What height and weight are you?
  9. Hello everyone. I've always been fascinated by the look of the Shadow Stormtrooper figure from Hot Toys. Now that the CRL allows the ammo pack, emulating the look of the figure is possible even more. Analyzing the helmet, it gives me the impression, that it is a Hero helmet style. https://pin.it/iiqvce2hcnnojo The question is, if I have a Hero helmet, Would it work for registration? All in black of course. And the other detail, is weatering allowed for basic registration? Thanks
  10. Hi! Where you bought these decals? Trooperbay?
