I had issues deciding what costume I would eventually build for my first. However once Rouge one was released,I made my choice. I'll keep you updated as I get more done. Here's just some pictures I took of me cutting the armor out.

Good luck on the build.

As a tip...your pictures would be easier to view if you hosting them on a site such as Photobucket and posting the IMG code here. The pictures will show up better when viewing.

The helmet finally arrived in the mail. It's a fiberglass and ABS mix from BSP,the same vendor as my armor.

The quality is very high and has the most accurate details I've seen on a Combat Assault Tank driver bucket. I'm super excited to get it and expect some more updates soon. I'll post more images of it if requested.

I've assembled the bicep and forearm pieces. They will be big enough so that 2 separate pieces won't be needed.

Also installed the vents on the back

A bit of an odd question,but does anyone have some good tips for making the inside of your bucket smell better?

You could spray the inside with plastidip. I'm not sure it will be "better" but will be different at least!
