Sorry for the double post. As I mentioned above. I recieved my GM last Thursday, and I'm stoaked. Small problem, I'm a n00b at this stuff since this is my first armor and I'm going to need lots of help. I got some of Torso_Boy's tutorials and been reading other posts. But I'm still in need of help (for example how to cut, how to mate parts, where straps would go, etc). In a nutshell, "all the good stuff". I'll post pictures as far as my WIP goes (and see if you guys can aide me). I'll definatley won't have it ready for SDCC this weekend. I wish I would have had at least a month more time. Hopefully it will be ready in time for the Clone Wars midnight screening. Thanks for you time, everyone, MTFBWY -RamZ Here is the only thing I have that is ready. The Bucket and blaster.

Ram, I have been over at clonetrooper.net longer than I have been here. WE might be THE source for marines, but they are the experts when it comes to building the stuff. I would go over there and look for some of the tutorials. I have some stuff that could help that I could post. I will try to find them. I did find this one that I saved on my computer awhile back from ct.net:

I did find this one that I saved on my computer awhile back from ct.net: Thanks Shadow. I've checked out their tutorials, but I'm still having a really hard time with the armor. Also, how do I attach the Ammo boxes to the Bandolier (which I'm making from an old belt) and the same with the strap that goes on the right bicep? Here is a picture of my Right arm parts. Obviously, the parts are too big for my arm. What's the best way to cut and the combine both parts of the bicep and forearm? I know that once I have them done the way I want them to make them seamless I just have to put some Bondo on them.

Ramz, here are the pictures you wanted. I hope they help. shoulder strap strap from bicep up to shoulder strap strap closed The bicep hangs from this strap and that keeps it up.

My shoulder bells are hand made by me out of "found" objects. There is just a piece of velcro on the shoulder of the shirt and the other piece on the inside of the bell. That is all.

Cool. Thanks for the heads up. I guess I'll improvise somehow.
