    Yeah I kept mine seperate too. Knee gaskets popper to thighs and shins, Shoulder and elbows are sewn together and worn almost like a jacket. Means I just wear a tshirt and leggings as a base layer.

    Do you have pics of that upper body setup?

  2. Good morning, a friend of mine was talking about getting a shirt with gaskets already on it. Was wondering if anyone has done this or found a few pieces to mod.

     

    Right now I have geeky pink gaskets and a one piece undersuit with the shinny shorts. They are fitted to form and while they work it's a process to get everything on. Now that I'm approved would like to start making mods to get kitted up easier

  3. Well I went ahead and ordered a kit from Wayne (jim kit) got it done and approved. No idea if this MIMIC build will ever get done.

     

    MIMIC just can't be counted on. I thought when I got armor in April I'd have the rest by the end of summer. Being told  by Christmas but who knows. Mimic is a garbage vendor and I would stay away at all costs

  4. Only kit I know of that doesn't need paint is MIMIC's kit. You can find him on therpf.com I have half my kit in and it's beautiful.

    There is one spot open on the run and you probably won't be waiting near as long as I have been.

     

    My garrison mates that are doing KB kits just got clear kits and planning to paint with Kyron Gloss White I think

  5. I've been following your stuggles with those incomplete kits on facebook.  The whole situation stinks.  BUT I'm glad Mimic is rounding the corner on finishing those kits.  In hindsite, I should have been more patient with him.  In fact, I may peek in on that thread now...
     
    He has one spot open again lol.

    He has help and is almost done. Has really responded well to feedback. And I do love what I received so far

  6. Good lord that sucks; I was all happy this morning when I got update from MIMIC that he finished ALL the molds. Has been a hell of a waiting game but glad I stuck it out.

     

    Sorry to hear about your bad luck. I have 3 troopers locally with PETG kits and they have a ton of bad pulls that are being reworked in bondo and a bunch of parts that are missing. I'm doing what I can to track down suitable replacement parts to make the kits they have complete. Just a shucksty day for everyone my heart is broken for everyone.

  7. Over the weekend I had some troopers at an armor party receive armor in that was missing parts and rather than get upset I've been on a kick to preach inventory as first step in the build process.

    I heard a comment from another veteran that had a similar mind as mine and was wondering why there were no checklists etc, was his first experience receiving hard armor. A lightbulb kicked on in my management set mind and I created a community shared document with various armor makers and a list of what should be included.

     

    I invite the community here to help contribute to the document and hope it helps as something that is helpful during BBB days and helpful to any makers. Please if you make any edits just note what you did below on each tab (there is tab for each maker)
