Hello Everyone,
I have been working on my ANH Darth Vader since last August. It's about 80% complete, and should be ready for approval by June. It has been a long road, but I am getting there. Really looking forward to trooping with the 501st. I am also working on a Neo Pixel lightsaber project.

Welcome Scott. Do you have a thread, or have you visited SLD? The Sith Lord Detachment .
What type Helmet do we have here? We have quite a few Vader in the Garrison and they may be able to help give you some installation pointers.

Thanks Jason. I do have a WIP Thread over on Sith Lord Detachment:
http://forum.501stsithlords.com/index.p ... vader-wip/ The helmet that I have is an EFX. Most everything on the helmet is complete, with the exception of matching the paint to the armor. I had to do a bit of remedial work (fiberglass and paint) on my armor this weekend. When I am happy with the paint on the armor, then I need to repaint the helmet to match. I welcome any advice or input that any of the current Vader's are willing to provide.

Complete armor rework is nearing completion. Made a big mistake with a previous bell attachment experiment.
