I've made some adjustments to what was pointed out including tightening the pack straps. These are pictures where I didn't have any help so there's likely still issues in these photos. I do know that I'll be able to tighten the pack more if I get help, so if it's still too big of a gap in these photos I think it'll be easily fixed. I believe I have the belt aligned better, it's fairly straight in the back too, but in the photo I wasn't standing up completely straight so it might not appear that way at first glance (another thing that can be fixed next time with help). I fixed the calves too, luckily I was able to take the cover strips off and put them on the correct side with little to no paint damage.

Well it's a good thing I am not an accountant Im not exactly sue what I did wrong, but I miscalculated the goal, and we are going to need to re-open the fundraiser. The correct total to get us to the 14 month goal is $865.39. As of writing there is approximately $100 still to raise to make this goal. All donations will still be eligible for the 2025 supporter banner. We' would still ask for a $5 donation from members, but any value no matter how small will be appreciated. Apologies for the error.

I went with a low budget version! The ID plate is 3D printed and the troop count is simply drawn on with permanent marker. A great way to keep track of troops and a wonderful conversation starter!

Thank you to all of you who have contributed to the forum. It really does help and means we can keep helping troopers.

Thank you to all the members that contributed. We have reached our goal, and have locked this thread, so no further donations are needed for this campaign. Thank you again for this amazing community for pitching in to keep this forum run!

if you are going to do it, may as well be canon. this is an original.
