Approval photos submitted!

Small update: Helmet is painted and 100% completed Torso buttons are all painted White shoulder straps are attached Detonator is constructed Belt is 99% done, just need to attach the holster All that is left to do is put together the straps that connect the bicep/forearm to the shoulders and the belt that'll hold up the thighs. Shooting for Wednesday at the latest to submit approval photos.
-
Put the first coat of paint for the trapezoids, frown, and vocoder along with the aerators. Letting it dry fully then I can outline and add the black lines. Only thing then will be to add the visor and mesh to the teeth.
-
On the CRL it says for the tube stripes are "numbering 9 and 16 per side". I'm assuming that means there can be as 9 stripes per side, 10 per side, 11, etc... upwards to 16?
-
Small update: Entire torso is strapped together along with the shoulders, just waiting for the strap to dry. Still trying to figure out how to hold up the biceps, I've seen people make hooks that they hang off the shoulder strap but I'm leaning towards running a strap from the shoulder to the bicep similar to what I have for Rex. I replaced the black straps on the holster with undyed versions. Trimmed down the large belt ammo piece, just waiting on the white straps for the boxes to come in tomorrow along with a clip for the belt I'm planning on making to hold up the thighs. My belt is a bit large and wraps around me even in armor about halfway past the velcro. I was thinking of just put another piece at the far end instead of having to trim it down but I'd also like to hear some others opinons on that. Plan for tomorrow is to attach the stomach greebling along with the plastic shoulder straps to the chest. Received my thermal detonator hooks in the mail so that will hopefully be done as well tomorrow. Hoping to paint the helmet/buttons on Friday, just have to go organize my model paints. I'm hoping to have it all together by this weekend and able to submit my photos by next week at the latest!

Got the second ear on and beveled the screw holes! Tried to get the left ear to have as similar as possible spacing and sizing to the right.
-
Added the first ear, kind of bugging over the less than seamless look but several build posts on the FISD forums says that its not the end of the world. Still looking for opinions on whether it'll fly before I start the next one. It should also be noted I have not beveled the screw holes yet.
-
Trimmed out the eyes and teeth of the helmet and connected the front and back. Still some sanding to do but its coming together!
-
A small update, but the arms and legs are all fully constructed and I am beginning the strapping process with the torso. Starting with the abs and kidney plate so I can get an idea for the length of the belt. I'll probably fasten the posterior plate tomorrow once everythign else is dried.

Thank you! Thats what I figured but I couldn't find the exact numbers.
-
Starting to add my coverstrips and wanted to make sure they are thick enough. I've found other TK's with similar spacing but just wanted to double check.

Im assuming arrival time is 8:00-8:30 to allow suiting up? Anywhere we need to go to get let in? -
Following up with some updates: Received my boots, neck seal, holster (which is now modified to be an ANH style), and E-11 in. All I am waiting for is the actual kit from Walt's so then I can get an accurate size for the canvas belt.
-
So I've cracked and have begun my process of building an ANH Stunt TK. I've ordered my armor kit from Walt back in Mid October, ordered my boots, neckseal, and strapping from Imperial Boots last week and am currently looking at E-11's, belts, and holsters. I'm curious if the E-11 I've attached would make it through the approval process along with the holster. Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Weird Al "Bigger & Weirder" 2025 Tour

Sounds like TK is moving up my build list -
It makes a huge difference and is rather simple to learn. Worth the investment Finally have an update! Managed to get the helmet and chest printed out and am currently working on the back. It might be slightly large but once I get the abs/cod printed I'll have a better idea on the sizing of the torso. In comparison to Rex's chest I can lay my arms flat against my torso so thats already a plus!

I'll be there all weekend, will definitely be stopping by and saying hi! -
Purchased the Galactic Armory files for Crosshair and did a rough scaling using Armorsmith (great system for 3D printing armor). I am planning on going back and remeusaring/creating a new model (the old one being based off of measurements from over a year ago). Other parts that I plan on ordering include boots from crowsprops, along with a stormtrooper style neck seal because of the ribbing. Will also need to slice the backpack and figure out a harnessing system to offer decent support. The belt I am planning on making from leather while using the included files to make the holster. As of now I am waiting on my new order of filament to arrive along with some upgrade parts for my printer. Really looking forward to hearing advice/any need critiques!
