Ripper Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Hi everyone, Just did my first fitting of most of the kit. Lots of adjustments to be made. One thing is I need to make the abs taller. This is all 3d printed files from Galactic Armory. Feedback requested on how to make everything right. I am a bigger guy so chest had to be bigger https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53462081913/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53462262634/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53461950031/in/dateposted-public/ Having problems uploading picture. I click start new Post Topic, type in the title and text, click on insert image from URL and all I get is a popup with an endless spinning disk. I have tried chrome and edge. Anyone willing to post my pictures? Thanks Edit: Attaching pics here. --Stutz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunkRocketScience Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 What operating system are you using? If you send me the links, I can post them for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunkRocketScience Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I can see the pics fine Cory. @Stutz is our local garrison membership liaison (GML), so he would be reviewing your application once you are done, but he usually can provide intermediate comments to help keep you on track. I think @oswegojeff also recommended the Clone Trooper Detachment? Here's the link if not: http://501stclonetroopers.com/ Jeff is one of the few clones that we have locally, so he would be a good resource for you as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripper Posted January 30 Author Share Posted January 30 Ok, I reprinted some things fixed some others. I think I need to make the biceps smaller although that will be a tight squeeze. Here are the picture on clone trooper site https://501stclonetroopers.com/forum/index.php?/topic/29551-wip-501st-clone-trooper-phase-2/ Let me know what you see.

rtrnngvdtps Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Are the abs connected to the chest in any way? Maybe some strapping will help keep it closer to your body and eliminate some of that gapping Chris was talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripper Posted February 1 Author Share Posted February 1 I have not connected the abs to the chest yet. I'm going to rework with the suggestions I got to lower the chest. I did take Jeffs suggestion and connected the cod piece to the abs and use suspenders for the whole lot and that worked very well. I am also reprinting the biceps and shoulders to make them smaller. I have now got them to minimum size to fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripper Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Ok, lots of work done, I have taken everyone's advice and got a vacuumed formed top which looks so much better. I also downsized the arms and forearms. Still have weathering and some rubber connections to complete. Let me know what you think. https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53556937503/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53557190740/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53555888262/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53557077924/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53556945728/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53557086244/in/dateposted-public/ I still cant get links to upload or pics but if someone else could that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripper Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 While I'm waiting for approval I made a clone backpack.

Ripper Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 Just an update, I got my results back from submittal and I missed that the neck collar has to have vertical piping not horizontal like the Storm Troopers. So once I fix that I should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So once I fix that I should be good to go. Hopefully a quick fix. Sorry I didn’t notice this. Animated phase one clones just have a plain black neck seal so I didn’t know.

Ripper Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 Just went out for my first public outing with my clone trooper and it went great. It felt better than I thought it would but still won't march in a parade This was at the Coronado bike ride around the island. We were on Alameda and had music and motivation for the bike riders about at the halfway point. No one expected to see a clone waving them on! https://www.flickr.com/photos/199855019@N05/53835767906/in/dateposted-public/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
