Building a shoretrooper captain first time WIP for 501st approval hopefully

Hey there, very new to the forum, not sure if this is even the right place to be posting this. I am about to attempt to build a Shore trooper suit. I thought I’d turn one of my basement rooms into my workspace. Any and all help is welcome and greatly appreciated. I’m located up in bc Canada. I am looking for feedback from  members on which vendors should be sought out for each piece. Here’s what Ive got so far

 

Helmet: Joe Knowlton

Balaclava: 

Neckseal:

Shirt:

Chest Plate:

Back Plate:

Abdomen Section:

Abdomen Side:

Shoulder Armor:

If anyone knows of any Facebook groups I could join as well that are Shore Trooper specific that would be so amazing. I will update periodically with any progress.

Welcome Emmanuel!

Checkout the vendor list linked below. I you haven’t decided on a kit yet look at some build threads in the Shoretrooper HQ and WIP forums to see the differences between the available kits.

Shoretrooper Fam on Facebook is the place to be for everything relating to Shoretrooper builds. They were an enormous help in getting mine up to spec.

They also have a vendor list that has been used by members whom have been approved by the 501st and also to get Vanguard status. Although remember although parts or vendors are approved armour needs to fit the specific individual and may require modifications to do so.
