Pepakura Republic Commando Build

Hey all, how's it going?

As a fan of Star Wars one armor that has always looked great to me is, as the title probably makes obvious, the Republic Commando armor. I'm reasonably experienced with pepakura, bondo-ing, and resin so this build will hopefully go smoothly. I'm starting with the bicep, and I'll post pictures probably before the day is out.

I'll likely be trying to go for a set of Scorch armor (the orange one in the middle).

By the way, the files aren't mine, and I'm not sure who made them but they seem reasonably accurate. If anyone wants them I can PM/email them.

(This'll be my very first build thread, so please excuse any newbiness)

There is a Scorch action figure that might also provide a good reference.

So I finished the first bicep, and I'm going to probably start the chest/other bicep next. The standard scale seems spot on luckily! I'll post another update when I finish the next piece (should be in the next 2 or so days). Also, I found a good picture of the action figure Huckleberry mentioned. This seems like it'll be great for getting the details to add to the armor. Thanks for the suggestion by the way!

EDIT: Found the backpack here ( https://www.propakura.com/file/republic-commando-backpack/ ). Still looking for the elbows/abs.

Thanks in advance

Just finished my bottle of superglue 3/4 of the way through the forearm, so I'll put up some pictures when I get some glue (probably tomorrow)
