Next progress.
I was warned by Taras that the armor pieces wouldn't line up perfectly, which is understandable. Even with my Stormtrooper a heat gun was required to make everything look decent. So, using that same before mentioned heat gun I shaped all the armor pieces for the legs as well as the gauntlets. Below is one of the shins that was almost done, just needed to get it a little more over.
Finally got it to where it was acceptable. I do see now that the back of the shin slipped down a little. I will assure you that the top is flush with the seam.
Then utilizing the awesome containment box I drilled out the cuts in the shin armor for the straps to go through.
Got it pretty close with the dremel
I still had this sweet needle file set from when I built the Stormtrooper. It was a necessity for doing the Teeth on the helmet. It worked pretty good to clean up the cuts on the armor as well.
Now the shins are drying after a quick wash.
Probably going to glue the thighs together in the next few days, as well as work out how to secure the shins so there won't be any slippage while moving around. Also the Wife found me the paint at Canadian Tire this morning. Things are progressing, albeit slowly.
