I think a pep build could be cheaper if you're a pep master and you're able to perform a build with no waste and as few resources as possible, but in general it seems to be cheaper to go with a kit. I'm only operating on advice given to me in my first ever post on these boards about a year ago by more veteran members. What could I expect to pay for a helmet that I can take my time and put together? Thanks for saving me a hassle and money it seems. That's why I was attracted to the pepakura. So I thought the pepakura builds would be less expensive but your saying they're cost more and less accurate? I like building these myself but vader and stormtrooper pose an issue for scratch builds. But I will say, accuracy is a must for me. My collection is more nostalgic than anything else. I'm too tall to be a stormtrooper, 6'3 220 so it's just a display piece.boba maker has a tutorial on a snowtrooper helmet I am beginning to work on but I would also really like to have a stormtrooper, boba fett and vader helmets as well.

If you'd rather go a more tried and true route, I'd suggest looking at this thread: get an idea of where the 501st gets most of its TK armors. If you still want to go through with it, I know where to find TK pep files. When I first got onto the FISD, I was planning on doing a pep build, and I was quickly warned away from it. The armor often ends up being heavy, expensive, uncomfortable, and inaccurate. Hey Kevin, we don't actually generally suggest the use of Pepakura for armor builds if you're trying to join the 501st.
