HA!!! I didn't realize that was an actual type of helmet! I was going off panda over on fisd, and noticed that comment a long time ago, but never thought much of it.

Very cool!

I need to figure out how to do the tube strips and cheek strips so I can get those painted on as well. Might end up purchasing a template from trooperbay, but was trying to figure it out otherwise..

sorry, I meant the trap on the back of the lid....no covering that one up lol

Painting has begun..the right back trap is a bit bigger than the left so eas thinking of redoing it.. http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t487/bronco3001/TK%20ARMOR/20160518_090012.jpg http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t487/bronco3001/TK%20ARMOR/20160518_090025.jpg http://i1062.photobucket.com/alb...

Thanks guys....while I wait for my paint to show up...I start trimming the forearms and biceps more. The forearms are looking good, just have to do a little more sanding to get them ready for gluing the cover strip on. The biceps I'm not as sure about...I've cut them, but I did it a little backwards...

Thanks, I did end up doing rivets to help me hold things in place. I put the lens in tonight, trying to decide if I like the one piece deal...not sure if you can tell but there is a gap along the top of the eye. Not a big deal right? http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t487/bronco3001/TK%20ARMOR/201...

Well here we go....this took entirely too long tonight, but had troubles getting it all lined up properly. The right ear is a tad worse than what I wanted, but I couldn't get it any better than this unless I do a whole new ear for it....so we'll go with this for now and see how it goes. I think I en...

Is there a reason to rivet it? I'm following pandatroopers build, so I assumed it was one of those things that just needed to be done, possibly for approval,etc.

Awesome, thank you! The right is definitely thicker, but I wanted input before I did anything because I was afraid I over-trimmer the left, lol.

Hopefully tonight means the start of riveting it all together! The brow I may end up putting it a bit further down....hard with those stupid clamps

Alright...I've done very minimal over the last year...started trimming, eyes, and teeth. Today I did thr ears...how does this all look? The rank bumps on the ear are angled down right? I feel they will fit together a bit better after everything is actually held together with screws/rivets, but hopef...
