  1. I have been working on Shoretrooper for a couple years. While all pieces for individually, I finally suited up yesterday with everything. A friend who doesn't cosplay helped me (how do you all suit up alone!). So a few things are crooked. I feel like the chest plate is way too big. I couldn't get the helmet to sit correctly as they were rubbing on the back. I also think once together the forearms are oversized for my arm size. I had all the pieces printed to my measurements, so I'm a little disappointed. Do you get the same read from the picture? Looking for suggestions to salvage this. I can't get the file size right on my phone, but loaded the picture here. https://photos.app.goo.gl/s5FcajJgEtThMVVU8
  2. Started this journey June 2020. So excited, almost ready, waiting on soft goods to put it all together. If you know of a good suiting up video, please send me the link. Everything is a bit rigid and intimidating putting it on the first time. Helmet: 850 Armorworks Armor: 850 Armorworks Boots: Ardmoor Balaclava: Costco Ammo Pouch - Etsy MilitarSurplusStore Shirt: Darkside Closet - on order Pants: Darkside Closet - on order Gloves: Need to order
  3. Just notified by 850 Armorworks - Grunt Armor is on it's way to me this week! I was late with my measurements to The Darkside Closet so timing will be a bit off. Will start the picture portion of updates very soon!
  4. Here's the plan: Helmet: 850 Armorworks - ordered in 2020 Armor: 850 Armorworks - ordered in 2020 Shirt: Darkside Closet - ordered today Pants: Darkside Closet - ordered today Boots: Ardmoor - on hand (£83.70) Belt: unsure (may be with 850 order) Gloves: unsure Balaclava: Costco - on hand Ammo Pouch - Etsy MilitarSurplusStore - onhand ($26.42) Most worried about putting it all together when everything comes in. The strapping I keep reading about makes me nervous. I'm a visual learner and need to see someone else do it first.
  5. Keeping myself accountable to finish my journey to become a Shoretrooper
  6. Journey is having a boot sale. Hoping I can make these work with a lot of weathering and some darker shoe polish. https://www.journeys.com/product/mens-levis-keith-chelsea-boot-tan-797959
