TooTall’s DeathTrooper WIP

After emailing 850 and having to put my foot down, i finally got the shipping notice that it’s on the way. Hopefully it’ll be here next time in time for the 501st armor party I’m attending

I figured I try to get some biters. What is yalls helmet setup on the inside? Currently looking for fans, a battery and some padding. Asking around so I can get some ideas of when I fully paint my helmet.

gonna try my best to log everything in order. im slowly working more and more on the kit during the weekends as its my only availability right now. ive been sanding and filling this helmet the entire time. got the last round of sanding and hit it with black paint. some areas are needing to be fixed but that is completely okay. once i have all the pieces i need to be black i will hit everything with 2k gloss along with the help of a local star garrison friend. Jim notified me last night my undersuit was ready to be shipped so i paid off the rest and it is now on its way. very excited to get it done

 

 

Up next. we finally, got the 850 kit in. now some things to address. i was unaware they were gonna trim some of it as a favor. at first glance i was very confused until they reached out a couple days later. not all of the pieces are PLA printed, it is all in fact resin, which means i would have to fully paint the entire armor set to match. the backplate they did do the hard part for me so i now have to clean it up entirely and fix a corner. i was missing a back side wing so i am being sent extras as we speak. the thigh connector parts were looking a little rough with the mold so i kind of left it alone for now until i work on it more. looking at it all was a bit overwhelming but yeah, i worked with what i got.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sunday was the 501st armor party. the host was great for giving advice on how to cut and trim excess materials. it took about almost 4 hours to cut everything as much as we can. next we're gonna have to clean up the rest we can with belt sander to get it all fine and trimmed and then we can glue everything together for assembly.

Jim Tripons undersuit is finally here. The top fits wonderful however the pants would definitely need some adjusting and taken in a bit but not alot. also around the neck its a little tight but not enough to choke me out. will that stretch out over time or can that be adjusted a bit?
