Title: Any good tips on Putting together TK armor (anh stunt) ?
Post by: Colberto on August 30, 2023, 02:07:13 PM

Hey Everyone,

I’ve gotten my TK armor from Walt’s trooper factory, however it’s hard to find how i put it together. Does anyone have any useful tips or step by step instructions? Thank you so much!
May the Force be with you.

I haven't assembled a TK kit in decades, literally...So I cant be any help there.  Did you seek assistance over at the Detachment?

No method of building is the same. You'll see them use power tools, but you can also do a build with just hand tools. There're also different methods of strapping the armor together. Also check out Whitearmor.net that's our legion's Stormtrooper specific online hangout. You'll find more tips and advice over there.

Hey Fox,

So even if my armor is from Walt’s trooper factory I can use these videos that don’t have the same brand?

If Walt's armor is made out vacuum formed plastic just like the originals those videos should help. Also, for expert advice join whitearmor.net that where the 501st experts on Storm Trooper armor hangs out.

The Trooperbay tutorial above was my Bible for 2 TK builds, one of which was from Anovos.

Maybe try joining the 501st forum and go to their help section and post about trying to sign up for their white armor board.

I think I need my armor build before signing up. But is it true?

You can sign up and gain basic access to all of the 501st forums. You only need to have fully built and approved costume to access member only sections.
