I'm going to post my progress on this Shoretrooper armor from Jim Tripon. Hopefully I can get some feedback and help. I have started on the straps, following a youtubers style, minus some modifications since I can't sew. I figured stretchy fastener wouldn't be too important critical? 1. Any recommendations on whether I should paint the blue now or if it's not too important even after gluing buckles etc. I think I will be going with the squad leader, since the armor Kama isn't acceptable for the grunt? 2. Should I be drilling into this fiberglass at all? I attached my thermal detonator to the back belt with two screws but it cracked when I used a screw that was too large

Awesome, thanks for the reply. Also, I had question about the accuracy and detail of this bucket. https://www.therpf.c...75&d=1502041039 https://www.therpf.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=749774&d=1502041039 A gentleman by the name Alain makes it. Just wanted to know before I purchased...

Hi there, I'm hailing from Washington state near Tacoma. I just purchased Jimmi's Shoretrooper armor. I also have a helmet purchase in the works. Curiously, does Jimmi's build come with all the necessary parts to attach the armor together and to myself? And another question I hope someone can answer. Which style is the most comfortable/mobile? B or C I like the look of the Kama but I'm a bit shorter, would that make the kama look better or worse? Thank you guys, I hope to get cracking on this within the month.

So I was speaking with a seller and he told me people are putting their speaker in the chest area instead of on the helmet region for Shoretroopers? Any validity to this and pictures?

Out of WA here, 5'6" and I'm doing a jimmi Shoretrooper build. Hopefully STs look good on shorter people
