TK Clearance Guide (First Order Stormtrooper)

Guide in progress & subject to editing

Due to an increase in Fan-Made First Order Stormtrooper kits making it into worldwide circulation, I will accelerate the 99th FOST Costume Standards Guide (99th CSG).

This will be an evolving piece of work that may change rapidly in look & format but will be posted & amended live in order to help those researching the costume now, in making informed decisions & avoid unwanted expense.

I will leave the post unlocked so further information can be added but please raise your build questions in your own FOST research wip & I will respond there. All comments will be eventually removed from this thread to clean up the guide when complete but also during creation to avoid confusing discussions & to keep the guide on-point.

Although much of the construction detail cannot be disclosed for the kit in this guide, the members of the Clearance Team will be shown the build process in slightly more detail & may be able to provide guidance on the completed look of your FOST costume even if they cannot go into detail about the construction at this time.

**Please note, much of the fanbuilt armour has been constructed by moulding multiple separate pieces as whole constructions & so may differ in appearance. This may mean that the armour still requires bonding, filler, sanding & pain work to modify to screen appearance.
