  1. Well damn, I didn't know there were so many. Thanks!
  2. Looking to get pants and shirt, I know Imperial Boots make them. Any other makers I should check out for these?
  3. Back with my second Pathfinder's build. I've loved the ST since Rogue One, then to see them pop up in The Mandalorian and Andor, it has renewed my interest. I was able to pick up an 850 shoretrooper kit at a great price. I still need to order the soft parts, I'll probably get them ordered from Imperial Boots when their June wave hits. I picked up a pair of Orca knock-offs from Amazon already. I've built 850 kits before and they tend to fit my dad bod ok. I think I have most if not all of the strapping material I'll need. So i'm excited to get cutting once the armor arrives!
  4. That's awesome! I really like to watch build threads through someone's progress. Don't hesitate to reach out with questions!
  5. Thank you all for the support and guidance along the way!!
  6. I think I have a couple of the 5w speakers around here. As for the foam, I was just using acoustic foam, its not very dense. I may have some dynamat tape here as well. Ill give that a try. No lens fogging, I was just thinking ahead until summer. I can however see how the open ears would definitely help with air flow. We have a few troops over the next couple of months, Ill see how that goes before adding fans. Thanks for the input!
  7. I'm curious to see how people are are mounting any electronics. Currently I'm using Ukswrath mic and Poweramp, I had to add foam behind the snout to keep the feedback down. Needless to say my nose rubbing the foam. The Poweramp is behind my head in the "ring", and the back of my head is right against it. I know these helmets are tiny anyway, but I was going to add fans but may have to sacrifice the mic system. Anybody have pics of their setup?
  8. Awesome! Thank you for the info, much appreciated!
  9. So, I am going through the CRLs to prepare for lancer and one of the things is rebuilding the helmet. I know I have to paint the snout background, no issues. So on to the questions: 1. Seal the seam (its a cap/back type from SC). I see it's optional so I'm on the fence about it. I would probably use ABS slurry but I don't have any of the abs from the armor. I have other white abs, but the color might be off. So I'm torn on sealing the seam since it will require a complete repaint of the helmet and may not match the white of the armor. What are your thoughts? 2. Does anyone have a source for the 3M bolts? I've found some that are 3D printed but being small, some things just tend to look "printed" even when finished. 3. Is there somewhere I can post photos for lancer to get some feedback? I mean, other than the request thread? I didn't want to gum it up with random posts. Reviewing the lancer requirements, I'm pretty sure everything else is good, if not close. I tried to build to the upper standard when I put it together.
  10. I want to thank everyone for their help, I was approved this evening!
