Small paint app on the right bicep using yellow cab Montana gold. 

Info on the position and sizing of the stripes received by shoretrooper fam fb page, source Mr Paul. 

Additional weathering to follow...

Making progress with the greaves... 

Got a few more pieces to glue in place before filling and sanding, then I can bash on with the primer and paint. 

Shims cut to size to fill inside void to make flush for joining both halves, boomerang and sniper plates cut, sanded and trimmed.

Rear cover strips fixed in position for the open rear closures. 

Front greaves fully secured closed sealed with contact adhesive.

Today's updates include strapping for the biceps and shoulder bells. 

I'm pleased with the fit and positioning of the straps, and they hold up really well when kitted up for test fit.

All armoured parts assembled. Test fit for adjustments...few minor dressing issues, but easily resolved with assistance when kitting up. 

E22 stunt is on the horizon...looking for additional reference pics for bolts and screw placement any help would be greatly appreciated.

Great build, about to order my breaches, top and neck seal from Keep Trooping, can I ask what size you went with and what height and waist size you are please Paul?,

I am 6’.1 and 32” waist but usually get 34” waist in trousers I case be weight fluctuates, thinking XL to be in the safe size but perhaps L would be ok

Hi Christian, 

I'm 5'10" and usually go between a 34 and 36" waist. 

So I went with a medium shirt and large breeches from Keep Trooping. 

The neckseals are made slightly large to easily adjust and tailor to your needs, fortunately mine is just about right and not too tight. 

Hope this helps, good luck!
