Yesterday I glued the strap connecting the right arm to the right bicep, I think it turned out very well today, it fits right and doesn't pinch. I also redid the paste on the left bicep, and it turned out better this time, with only some slight discolouration but I'm still going to paint it white. Today I put on another coat of paint for the buttons, I think one more should do it and then it'll be excellent. I'm also going to start cleaning up the bicep and putting on the straps and parts to connect them to the shoulder bells.

I connected mine to my inner suspension harness. Very similar to how the movie armor was done. Though this option is obviously not required.

Yes elastic from the biceps to shoulder bell.

Just to clarify, you mean from the biceps to the shoulder bell? For the forearms, I don't think I have a lot of room to trim them because of the detailing on the back. I suspect if I can add strapping to keep my biceps up they won't touch. Re the ab/belt tilt, I noticed that in the photos as well. I have scoliosis so my right hip naturally sits higher than my left, so I think that's probably why. I'm not sure I'll be able to do too much about it, but I'll see. It's not as pronounced in other photos so I think it's more of a dressing issue, or things shifting around.

Thanks Sally, send them through when you're ready, but if you have any questions about how they need to look, certainly check the TFA TK CRL images and replicate those as much as you can. We can photo work any of the compilation images into sing if needed, plus we can cut them from the backgrounds if you can't, so all is good.

I do find at times super glue although quick to dry does not handle knocks very well and can come loose again. I like to use a 2 pack epoxy glue, 5 minute, glue then tape in place, it's a little sturdier.
