Elastic definitely allows movement, anything else without some give will just separate the snaps.

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the ranks

Congratulations and welcome to Centurion trooper

Congratulations and welcome to the EI ranks trooper, looking forward to seeing your Centurion application, good luck

Looking smart Kris, good luck with approval, not that I think you will need it

All you do is right click on images in Imgur and select copy, you can then paste directly into your thread or you can select "direct link" in Imgur

Looking smart

That would be the paint looks a little large, if you check the reference the painted area just stops short of the outline of the circle.

Much better, if I may could you also rotate your forearms a little too, they look to be rotating backwards and you'll find you'll catch the small front boxes on armor, also watch the position of your TD

FYI tube stripes can also go on two ways, but the correct way from back to front, they have a greater fall from the top, from back /////// front

I believe they are mainly FB based https://www.facebook.com/BackStageProps/

Looking good

It can take some time so please be patient, someone will be with you soon, remember we are all volunteers who take on these rolls and real life can take preference

Congratulations trooper and welcome to the ranks

Why not paramedics use it, ok maybe it's a little different Super Glue for Wound Closure article

I've had issues locally with Rustoleum so I use acrylic automotive paint, dries a lot quicker than enamels, standard white from automotive shop (which appears to match Anovos helmet), once the white is applied I also apply several coats of gloss clear acrylic, then satin black.

Appears they are sitting high then, perhaps adjust them down a little or the strapping between bell and bicep may need shortening.

Nice work, you may want to add a little glue to the drop box straps as they should be aligned with the end of the belt. You will also need to add a few more photos: Front and sides of your sniper plate, angle of sniper plate on side should match angle of shin. Outside and inside of thigh ammo strip rivets Cod rivet Close up of your TD, showing correct "pan head" screws And blaster D ring

Coming along nicely, I also have a lot of return edges left on my armor, I'm a little skinny in some places and it helps to keep them in place. On wounds I sliced the top of my thigh with a Dremel cutting disc, was in the middle of an Anovos FOTK build (which took 10 days from start to painted finish) and as I was rushing just slipped, didn't have time to visit the doctors so out with the super glue, worked great, still rocking the scar but it's a nice memory, I managed to wear that armor at the very next troop Like already said you can trim off at a later stage if you find it pinches and you incur any armor bites. Keep up the great work.

Looking good, just with the sniper plate if you are going for higher level clearance you may need to adjust it slightly, ideally the angle of the top of the sniper plate should follow the angle on top of the shin

Normally it's just so the GML can check some details, a lot of people take images on phones and they can auto save for a lower resolution, it's very hard to enlarge those to see fine detail Nice work on the mannequin, I also made a pipe build frame, managed to find some of these adjusters which work great when putting the armor on and off.

Great news, glad it worked out. Also have a look at the ear alignments while you trim and them, ideally they should look like the image below but it's not a requirement if you don't achieve that "ideal look".

Shoulder bells should be inline or just below the chest/yoke, not on top A nice little addition can help that

Here is a thread for inside helmet components which show some various helmet openings for size reference https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/40405-let-me-see-some-helmet-builds-looking-at-inside-ideas/?tab=comments#comment-540224 In this thread you will see what I mean by bringing the back plate further back, you can see on the images how much bigger it makes the opening compared to yours https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/46429-help-needed-helmet-assembly/

Definitely looks like you have a lot of overlap from back to front, I would remove the rivets and adjust. To remove rivets you need to clasp the back of the river with pliers and with a sharp drill bit slowly drill the outside cap of the rivet, slowly so there isn’t any heat build up
