MatuteX77 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Hello there!! I am also building a Patrol Trooper armor. I have started with Alain's files but then I added Mr Poopie's too. This is the first time I build a costume by myself, still learning about 3D printing and learning from scratch all about post-processing (sanding, priming, painting). So my build is going slow, but it is going... I have two printers, one with 220x220x300 print size and the other with 330x330x400. This is what I have so far: Printed parts Seems the shoulder bell is rather large...comparing to a TK's Post-processing Still a long way to go. Soft parts will be hard to come by. But I'll leave those for last I guess. Except boots, since the printed parts should fit them. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatuteX77 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hey guys, I am browsing for pants, and I am not sure which way to go... The CRL says: "Black, loose-fitting, cotton type material." But over here I found 3 cotton ones but slim fitted (and some with the stripe wider than it should be) On the other hand, I found a polyester one, which seems to be loose and the stripe somewhat narrow. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aradun Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I can’t see your photos, but our very own [mention]BikerScout007 [/mention]used these for his build and I think others may have used this source as well.https://www.uniformswarehouse.com/striped-polyester-slacks-68986.htmlSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatuteX77 Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 You cannot see them? Weird.I have seen Mickey's choice, but unfortunately for me it isn't an option. It would be very expensive for me to buy it in the US.Thank you for your reply.Sent from my motorola one vision using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hask Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 The last pair look to be the closest but are the wrong material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatuteX77 Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 Thanks to the visual aid from@MrPoopie 's WIP post. I'm laying the ground for my belt pouches. I tried in paper first because I'm terrible at cutting even but I like how it turned out. Found a faux-leather cloth so now I have to go for it and making them for real.
