Hello Sabrina. Welcome to the 53rd!. You know that coincidentally, some of the first GM costumes build I saw when starting my research were from Germany!. They were fan build, I believe in Sintra (a type of plastic, easily manipulable by heat). As it happened to me, when you become more and more familiar with the costume, you may notice that this costumes are not the most screen accurate out there, but you still may be able to get some info from the couple that made them, or maybe even do something similar with a little more screen accuracy with some patience. They were accepted in the 501st anyway!. Their site is www.imperial-armory.com and they have a step by step gallery of the build. Maybe you could even consider only some parts of this build option. This is the link for the GM gallery costumes.imperial-armory.com/#30.13Anyway, we will be more than happy to guide you and give our feedback in every step if you decide to go this or any other way. Welcome again and good luck with your build!.

Good afternoon, Gents, New guy here.. Marine from those old 90's.. Heard about this group from some buds in the 501st Everglades Squad in the Florida Garrison, and it got me interested in getting the Galactic Marine armor. I live in Palmetto Bay, FL (south of Miami). My name is James Touma.. I want to start working on my armor (I think it may take a while, but am highly motivated. Attachments:

Hello and welcome James!!. Glad to have you here!!.
I've been in MIA twice last year, but didn't make it down to Palmetto Bay. Anyway, I've been a very few miles away.
I wish you best of lucks with your build. You know we are here for any question or doubt.
Do you own, or have you built armors before?. What's your plan, to buy parts and assemble?, or to build some or most parts of your armor?
Welcome again and enjoy!.

Greetings everyone, currently have a TK Commander at Centurion grade, I'm with the Wisconsin Garrison. I'm now ready to tackle my next build and would love to build a GM. New to the clone scene and any advice, pointers, and where to go to get needed items would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Dan TK-3967
