First time posting, welcome any feedback of how I can be doing better! Started my armor journey hoping to wear a full kit at Emerald City CC in March 2023. Was unaware of the 405th at the time and just kind of winged it. Used the template from Aguilar Workshop on Etsy and my brother (bless him) 3D printed, sanded and base painted the kit for me. The pic with the lightsaber is what I was able to pull together for ECCC 2023. We couldn't get the legs to fit right but was proud to wear what I could! We worked thru the summer and I attended my first meet up at Rose City CC 2023 (red background pic). We had all the pieces printed and even some detailing but a lot of it fell apart lol so more work needed. At that meet up I was introduced to the 405th by Kahn319 and have been lurking since. I was able to get some more detail and soft parts together for ECCC 2024 and was able to be in my first ODST group photo. After 18 months of trial and error and a lot of lurking in 405th threads I'm diving back in to hopefully have a re-made kit with a fresh look for RCCC 2024. In the next few months hoping to tackle a fresh paint job with upgrades to soft parts and infrastructure. Wish me luck!
