IcyTrooper

Another 000 would be sweet to see!

Yessssssssss! Another Shadow Stormtrooper! Excellent choice!

Excellent! I have let the DCA team know that the new pics are up! Having those STL files would be sweeeeetttt!

Thanks my friend!

@Fivezero got a little feedback from the editing team. They are suggesting a lower POV, with more distance away that is not top to bottom because it is giving some "big head-small feet distortion". Also stated that on the front has the hands behind the big pockets. Are you able to reshoot? I know it is a pain but the costume looks fantastic! We gotta show that thing off!

Veryyyyyyyyyy nice!!!

Sickkkkkkkkkkk! I'll talk to the team and see about editing and how it looks for that.

Agreed that the shoulder armor is a variation. It is very unique to me, the ridging is reminiscent of like a Mando shoulder.

Welcome! Check out this thread near the bottom, should be some good vendors:

I can hopefully clear some of these up for you : The "tube stripes" across the jaw line are black and may either be gloss black or matte/flat black since we don't explicitly specify. Those two trapezoids "traps" can either be black or gray, your choice. Same as #2, these "tears" can be black or gray. Ears is the part where the "rank bars" may be located. To get the pictures to show up without a size limitation you'll have to use a 3rd party image hosting service. There is a great tutorial here :

To clarify, the top picture is the only approvable knee option on the shadow stormtrooper armor. Both pictures are a "sniper knee" but the top one is the one that is in the CRL, not the bottom one. That is unique to sandtroopers.

I'll get this thread started for Del Meeko CRL edit discussion that was started on June 21st.

Good to hear! CA glue is good but if it is your first set of armor be careful. It allows super quick building but once it starts the chemical process of fusing there is nothing that is going to break it apart. E6000 can keep the parts together and it can come off pretty easily if something isn't right, the only downside is the dry time and strengthening time, if you are racing to put something together. Depending on the maker of your kit, it could have come with two different types of sniper knees. One is for regular stormtroopers and the other is for sandtroopers. The one that looks more like a diamond is for sandtroopers. Here they are below: Regular stormtrooper & shadow stormtrooper: Sandtrooper:

Agreed, CRL's are definitely "living and breathing" documents so as long as we have the references we'll always push those!

Very nice! I need to get back on the text again soon.

Awwwwww yeaaaaaaaaaaa!

The color is poppin'!

That silver looks soooooooo good, same with the LED on the TD.

I may have misspoke, I think I thought it was filler primer The filler that I used for my ROTJ royal guard was Evercoat Poly-Flex Flexible Polyester Glazing Putty (https://www.amazon.com/Fibreglass-Evercoat-411-Poly-Flex-Polyester/dp/B000P6US6A). It is expensive but flexes pretty well without cracking at all. I know that it can add some weight though because @RAIDER was using it for his Cav and then ended up switching halfway through. I think it just depends on how much you wanna use of it.

Excellent!!

Right on! I can't wait to see the final result!

For the shoulder bells I'd wait until you have your biceps together and glued before doing anything. Often times if you take that return edge off the bottom of the shoulder bells then they can often fit better over the biceps.

Yep, that works better! Your left bicep and right shin armor look a little larger than the other sides but other than that I can't really see anything that looks off. Once you get the biceps together and then raise them up a bit then the shoulder bell will come in and around it to make it not look "as large". I also fixed your pics above. Just had to right-click the pic and click "Copy image address" and then paste it. All good!

Yeah those should be good from what I can see! The part I was talking about with the grooves was here: However, it looks like that stripe or groove is just a painted detail and not an actual groove. As long as everything is black you'll be good. These images are really small when I try to launch them. Are you able to host them on an image sharing website such as Flickr and then link in the URL here? It'll automatically convert them to pics we can enlarge.
