Just like women don't wear underwear according to Lucas. Nice paint job although I think the orange weathering of the kneecaps/shoulder bells may be a tad too orange.

I was thinking the same thing about the orange but I'm going to hit it with some brown and gray with my airbrush and dull it down some. It matches the template pretty accurately but it wasn't until I was finished that I realized the template orange was a bit HOLY****INGGODTHAT'SORANGE ORANGE

You have the wrong skull on the shoulder. It should have the horns connected to the head for ESB. You have the ROTJ.

BAH! I knew I screwed something up. The person I bought the armor from packaged the sticker with the armor. Should I use some paint to connect the skull or should I just go ahead and get the other decal

I would go with another skull decal. It would be hard to get the right color for the decal and paint to match and if you went over the whole skull you might as well just paint it on with the templates.
