Hello, I am about to start building my first armor and have a few questions...
1. I am looking for 501st approval, but it looks like there requirements are different between 501st and mepd, is this the case?
2. I've noticed that there seems to be difference in how armor is trimmed. What I mean it that some are trimmed right to the end flat, so you just see the thin plastic edge and some has a lip left around the end, I assume this is to make the armor look like it is thick? Which method of trimming is acceptable for approval, or does it matter.
3. What is the standard width of the strips for joining the pieces together on the legs and arms? Can you make them bigger to make more room and still be approved?
Any input is greatly appreciated, and I'm sure I will be back with more questions if I run into any problems.
