  1. Apologies all, work has been a blotch, I'll get the belt done this week.
  2. 1st, positioning looks good. 2nd, a single connection is OK, you might want to widen the connector, I'm just thinking with a narrow single point you have a fulcrum point and any pressure on any of the ends could cause a structual failure at the connection point. 3rd, center based upon the blue line.
  3. I just put a nose pad where my Anovos presses down on my nose. It still sits on my nose but is less painful. Even with the helmet liner, you can put a pad in the top to raise it up slightly as well.
  4. Thank you Andreas, we can come back to the legs, joints and boots when we get to them. Next up will be the belt. I will finish up sometime this week, as I had lost my reference photos and had to check on a few minor details.
  5. Considering that the joints were CGI'd, the way you have made your joints works. Impressive craftsmanship. We can fine tune the joints later, but I believe we are at a 98% solution for the joints.
  6. Ok the helmet can be basic approvable. The nose bridge meets the basic CRL as it is. To be Level 2 you'd have to add an additional raised bar to the middle section. The 8 side vents would need to be drilled out so the slots are open. Then add the metal screening and black fabric backing to be basic approvable. Everything else meets basic approval.
  7. Hey guys, if you post the photos of the helmet in question here, I can take a look and tell you if it will pass Basic and/or L2. LOL I have been looking at helmets for years and as long as the photos are decent resolution and in good lighting it should be simple to identify if anything needs correcting.
  8. Revision 0 Posterior Armor Gloss black in color. Is generally curved to follow and cover approximately ¾ of the wearer’s posterior area which extends up under the belt. There is a raised elongated rectangle located on the top center of the armor. A black elastic strap, approximately 1" to 1.25" (25mm to 32mm) wide, may be used to connect the cod and butt plates between the legs. Posterior armor may be slightly weathered but must be uniform with the rest of the costume. There aren't very many good photos from the show, so we may have to just rely on the Hot Toys figure for details. I'll update the supporting photos when I get home from work today.
  9. do you have a 501st Legion Forum account? The link https://www.501st.com/forum/app.php/howto-new-crl-and-crl-updates works for me.
  10. This might help with the process we are following: https://www.501st.com/forum/app.php/howto-new-crl-and-crl-updates
  11. I've taken a look at some options on how to replicate this detail. To be honest, I think this is one of those details we should consider too insignificant to replicate. With a costume with this much CGI detail, we can never get a wearable 100% accurate kit.
  12. @IcyTrooper perfect! I'm in the middle of a 10 day Mediterranean cruise. I'll post up the next piece text within the next few days.
