Hello guys, check this out ! This guy posted some great instructional videos regarding the assembly of his FX armor.

Hello Guys, as promised a short introduction of myself. I'm Phillip, 29 years old and originally come from scotland, last year I moved from the netherlands to belgium to my new bought house. Over the years I've evolved my different hobbies, and from one hobby I've always found a reason to add another one. I have many interests which include: Scifi and Historical modelling, collecting militaria, moulding and casting (mostly TIN) , scratchbuilding tanks, painting and collecting fiction and historical miniatures, playing electric guitar and creating music, Linux and gaming related server projects, and of course starwars.Historically I show a lot of interest regarding the development of tanks, planes and weapons during the great wars. I've always been interested in the stormtrooper armor, but in the past I lacked the funds/time/skill to be able to make this possible. I've been collecting historical items for a while now together with my wife, and now I have the room for it in my new house its interesting to expand our diverse collection. About 2 years ago I went from small scale to 1/16 scale Rc tanks, and the larger scale modelling was very attractive, especially since I had acquired a lot of skills on the smaller scales. Recently I came across the stormtrooper armor kits that are available by chance on the internet, and it has once again spurred my interest now it is feasible budgetwise. The building of such a kit seems an interesting project, and the many skills ive developed over the years regarding building/modifying/painting and scratchbuilding would be a great asset to let loose my creativity. And I find it a nice way to step up to an even larger scale , 1/1 ! I currently do not own a set of armor yet, I've still been doing a lot of research regarding the first kit I wanted to obtain. My choice is now pointing towards a AP or TM kit. My preference is towards a European based kit, hence the interest towards TM. MovieFX (germany)was a close alternative, but there are generally enough reasons not to choose that one as some of you might know, even when picking it up in person. SDS is just way to expensive for someone not receiving the British pound as a currency Im looking forward to adding scratchbuilt items to complement the armor, and also adding mods etc for appearance and maybe even for practical trooping. After my 1st kit I'd like to start an Imperial officer or even a Boba fett kit, who knows, or maybe even a 2nd trooper. I'm still not sure if my trooper will become a Sand or Death star version yet though Thanks for having me here. Greetings, Phil a.k.a WarlockWmD
