luismfm70 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hi all, i think the trimming was a little too much.... is this too bad? (Edit: This post was submited in the wrong place, should be in Imperial Issued Armor. Cant detele...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconoclasta_88 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think they are fine. No such thing as too trimmed for most parts. So no worries. Maybe in the future you can upgrade to rubber handplates... to make it more accurate. But so far, looks fine. Saludos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luismfm70 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hola Juan, thank you. I got an AP armor, the handplates are made of plastic. Do u know where i can get some rubber handplates? Gracias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconoclasta_88 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hey Luis... AP is good! But rubber ones are better Maybe you can get a set from Karin user Sonneschein here on the MEPD, or try Troopermaster. Also, maybe contact Karin on facebook. You can add me as a friend and I can send you her contact. Anything you need, just ask. Saludos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smally Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Seem ok to me. I'd always prefer over cut than under cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luismfm70 Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Im in contact with someone for flexible plates, looks the best option. Im going to keep these as spares for my stormtrooper armor. At the moment im working at the helmet. This weekend im going to sand the pieces. I think i will have a problem with the gap between the ab and back piece. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
