First off, I am not against advice, constructive advice. Second, I am not used to taking orders. I am not in the military nor do I have any interest in being so. Advice is fine, when it sounds like an order, not so much. Third, I can make changes on my own and fix the problems. Keep in mind I have a life as well. Just got a new job and had training for 3 days. I cant do work, nor should I when I am exhausted.
Now, onto the advice given. Thermal det is an easy fix, so is the paint job on the helmet. At one point I was considering getting a new helmet, I still may. What should be mentioned is that the new armor didnt quite match the helmet so I had to paint the helmet. I will most likely have to do the same to any new helmet as well. The chest and back will be a tougher fix... I dont know exactly how to fix that. That is a bit more.... technical. And advice it that regard would be nice. And lastly, the knees. The knee plate really doesnt have much to hold onto. The angle makes it hard to glue to the shin. I wanted to simply rivet the knee into place which would work the best. I know everyone says there shouldnt be a rivet on the sides, but If you notice in the info regarding the knee for centurion it says "Ideally" there should be no visible rivets. It doesnt say absolutely none visible. The ammo knee/thigh is lined up to meet at the top of the raised edges on either side of the thigh. The center box on that is lined up with the strip in the center. It is also not specified as to the straightness of the knee/thigh part.
So, now that I've said all I needed to, any other comments?
