Thank you for the info! I think we may have a few of those already on our references page. If you are simply referencing them you can right click those pics and copy the URL and then paste it to the thread and you'll have an interlink. There is limited total storage limits for each user so eventually you'll run out and need to use a third party image hosting like Imgur, Flickr, etc. to host the images and link them.

Very nice! That clear coat will make it pop! I did hit the back area in a few parts when I did my Incinerator trooper because I had the same concerns as you and it helped. I don't have any experience with Crowprops (only IB) but it looks pretty similar in thickness to my IB ones from what I can see in the pic.

Imperial Army Trooper - Andor - CRL Discussion
IcyTrooper replied to nanotek's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
Thank you all for the work into this, we are going to start reviewing the text and start collecting the pictures as well, so that we can start working on the wiki. Keep in mind, there still may be changes required as we see stuff, but we'll make sure to update the associated first page, first post and/or post along the thread for discussion if needed. -
Hello, @Oldracer27! There has been no new update from what I've seen or heard. I did draft up text a couple years ago but it will have to all be modified/refreshed prior to anything. We'll need the builder in order to move forward with the CRL.

They definitely did the right prep work with it being that hard to come off. I've had luck with filler primer being able to do some of the legwork of taking care of sanding.

That's looking good!

Imperial Army Trooper - Andor - CRL Discussion
IcyTrooper replied to nanotek's topic in Imperial Army Trooper - Andor
We need to do our due diligence in helping out GMLs the best that we can with the CRL. Will we ever get everything perfect? No, but we can try. If we are using text such as "like in [movie name] or [screen/show/etc.]" then we should probably at a minimum have a gallery reference that displays a picture and/or a forum reference. I also want to reiterate that if we are going to have it as an optional accessory, as blasters are, we will need someone to actually build it. As far as the blaster currently goes, we can eliminate the text about 3D print lines (and in other parts as well). We have a blanket statement at the start of the CRL about 3D printing and removing artifacts: "3D Printed parts are permitted but all print lines and other artifacts must be removed." That was introduced with either the DT or Sith Trooper, if I remember correctly. -

Oh yeah!! Back at it! -
Congrats on approval!

That does not look fun at all. I know the not being able to use an electric sander all too well. I wish I had another helmet that I could just give you.
-
These images will surely help those who want to build this! Looking good

That is nice! Where'd you get the red nylon webbing from?
