Hey man don't worry about a thing, I was the same way when I started (heck I'm still learning) but with a little time and research you'll be on your way! There's plenty of friendly people here that can help ya out, myself included!

Hey guys thanks for the compliments On a serious note, my purchases are on par with my budget and deadline for my build. I'm buying my soft armor all at once from the same place (Max's Sci-Fi Creation Shop), along with my Blaster (DVH) and helmet (Chef). Then I'm buying my armor, gloves, balaclava and boots. EDIT: Also seeing as you are also a Lego person, feel free to check out my thread! I posted pics of my collection!

Hey now I'm from SC, and this Scout's choice is Pepsi haha! You're just a little more south lol

Everything is lookin great, Cheyenne! Looking forward to approval pics! Only problem I see with this is that your choice of drink is a Coke and not a Pepsi

What kind of decals are trooperbay's and SC's? I was hoping for the transfer ones because those seem a bit easier for me..

When in doubt you can always count on Mickey!

White! Shoot for Lancer! The only silver rivet is the bottom one on the tank I believe.

Looks great! I'm six feet tall ass well, did you have to do any trimming on your SC armor? It looks really well proportioned!

For a Chef helmet?

Thanks guys! I may just end up buying decals from trooperbay.. getting paid next week so finally gonna start my build! Yay!

Does anyone know if the SC kit comes with decals or if I'll have to buy my own? If so who sells good decals?

Looks awesome, man! To be honest I've been keeping tabs on you, and it's awesome to see your build! I'm next up within the next month or two

Yea man I'm new here too, I was gonna aim for Lancer at the start too. However a lot of people have said to just get 501st approval first then Lancer, so that's what I'm doing. Everyone on here is extremely helpful and really nice. We're all here to help!

Thankyou! ....another panda. hmm.

I have been watching the Trooperbay tutorials on building Stormtrooper armor, mostly to have an idea of how the whole process is. So are the any tutorials like that for Biker Scout armor? I've seen the videos by Riblet15 on YouTube which were really helpful, however I would also like something really in depth like Trooperbay's....except for Scout armor.

Day two! I think I'm done!

Gah I don't know I went back and looked at Chef's and I like his a lot too. Geez picking the helmet kit is the hardest part it seems. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

After doing some more research, Altmann's is the one I want. Thanks everyone!

Welp it seems I'm stuck between three new lids haha. Chef's looks fantastic! I've seen both the KS, and Altmann as well. Guess I should have mentioned that I'm 6'0 and a 135 pound skinny guy. Looks like more research between these three! Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

I'm sorry if this isn't the right place for this but I wasn't really sure... Anyways, should be going to local lowes, home depot, etc this weekend to prep for the kit and such. Just wondering what all I should pick up, I know a few things I should be getting which I will list, let me know if I missed anything! -Dremel (and dremel things..?) -Exacto knife -Powerdrill with a few drill bits(?) -Sanding block, file strip, sandpaper -Rivet gun and rivets -Clamps -E6000 -Paint in Black, Dark Grey (White?) -Paintbrushes -Masking Tape -Hot glue gun -Heat gun Anything I missed or don't need? (P.S sorry I have been posting so much, I have too many questions and am all around excited to be starting this journey)

Is the Altmann lacer approved as is or would I need to mod it? How much are they?

Decided to mod this into a Scout Sniper rifle to tie me over until I start getting my kit. Basing the idea faintly off of the E-11s.

What are best Biker Scout helmets? Are there any that would be ready for Lancer approval right away? Right now I'm kinda stuck between SC, KS, and Altmann's. I'm getting SC armor and I can order it and get the Helmet kit with it so that's a big plus for me.

I will be getting mine from Max's Sci-Fi Creation Shop They sell the Cummerbund, Flightsuit, and Flak Vest together. All made for approval and Lancer Status. EDIT: https://www.facebook.com/Maxs-Sci-fi-Creation-Shop-1651285501763603/?fref=ts Link to their Facebook page.
