A big warm hi to all
This is my first ever attempt at building anything, my DIY skills have been compared to that of a Drunken Baboon. I don't really like DIY but have carried SW with me every day of my life after seeing the film so many years ago in a time far far away.
I have been lucky enough to get myself a TD TrooperMaster kit, Paul has been no less than fantastic through the whole process inspiring me to enjoy the build and have fun. His support and offer of help during my journey has given this novice the confidence to give it a good go. Hopefully i will give this amazing armor the credit it deserves, i really would appreciate any input as the experience on the MEPD is mind blowing.
Here is where i am.http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d134/millenium110/005_zpsbf92bcb3.jpg Upper Bodyhttp://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d134/millenium110/012_zps41a47156.jpg Lower Body http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d134/millenium110/002_zpsd87b1de8.jpg All limbs measured and cut evenly from both sides. http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d134/millenium110/019_zps429598de.jpg Biceps http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d134/millenium110/022_zps84c4b3a1.jpg Forearms

I am in the process of sourcing my Back Pack, Pouches and pouldron.
I apologise as i obviously have not got the hang of posting things properly.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my WIP, i look forward to eventually becoming a proud member of the 501st and MEPD to stand alongside some amazing individuals.
I still have some trimming to do on the return edges but i would really appreciate opinions on the general fit?
Many thanks in advance
