Hello I'm Craig in Michigan. I'm new to the boards. Am looking to start building my very first Star Wars costume. Gathering some materials this week and hoping to start working on the helmet this weekend.

If this is your first ever costume, I compliment you on your courage. It is no easy task. Good luck, and ask a lot of questions. Some of us have been here for YEARS.

Hello Craig, welcome the 53rd FAC.
As ToyHunter80's mentioned above...You're commended on your project. The Galactic Marine is one of the toughest builds to do...specially considering it is your first build. I don't want to scare you by saying that because the GM is my my first build as well. Just saying that because we (The Galactic Marine trooper) have very limited Official reference, and resources. I started mine a little over 2 years ago. and has been troop-able since then...but to this day I'm still not finished with mine. Feel free to ask as many questions as you like, we are here to learn from each other. I'm looking forward to seeing pictures on your helmet build hope any criticism you may get from myself or any of the Marines here will help get your build looking Amazing!

yes. this is my very first build. so far, i'm liking it. I've realized that this is going to be a difficult build. thank you for the compliments. I'm sure I will have lots of questions as I get deeper into project. I will start a "WIP" thread as soon as i get my helmet brought to life. I've been through a few others "WIP" threads and loved seeing all the pics and reading all the comments (good/bad/helpful etc.)

I get excited every time a new WIP is started, especially one with a lot of pictures. And then I get real jealous when they finish theirs and I am still stuck where I am.
