Hello everyone of the RPF! Along with this being my first post, it is my first build as well. I was hoping to find someone who could help me out, and this seems like the best place to ask.
I've been a member for a while, and I love the work that I see people do on here, its awesome. I've always wanted to do something myself, but never known quite what. Well, I was talking with a friend the other morning on our ride to work, and both of us being huge Star Wars fans, we got the idea to build Stormtrooper armor and walk around our local Seafood Festival (I live in North Carolina) in said armor.
I have Pepakura because I plan on making the armor that way. I have downloaded Fierfek's Stormtrooper files, and have them saved. That is basically where my knowledge on the matter ends. I don't know how to appropriately size the pieces to fit once cut and folded, and I don't know much on actually working on them until I get the finished product. I saw a video a few years back that someone made of them making ODST armor, and the videos showed how to start with paper and end with the final product. Ill look for that again, but I was hoping some of the fine people on here could help me as well.
If you know tips or anything else that could ease this process, since it is a first build for me, that would be much appreciated.
