I’m guessing this will make for a more difficult mould build, but after working with jimmiroquis I always wished that the traps and tears and the ear bumps were separate. I think it would look more realistic especially for painting. Bottom trim too.
For sure. I’d love to see how the rubber matches up with fibreglass. Mine are really just sitting there, velcroed to the chest and back with straps under them. I think the rubber will work.
I have made some progress. Almost everything is painted although I may want to do some touchups in the spring. I am reworking my strapping as I had started out with a harness but have slowly switched everything over to being attached to the ab surround and suspended from the chest & back plates. I need to adjust the strapping that joins the butt and cod and then I think I'll be ready to test fit again. I just haven't had the free time lately.
I ordered it late September/early October thinking I would get it for Halloween. I think they claim 72 hour shipping. Anyways it was closer to two months. I’m starting to think these aren’t the most truthful people to deal with.
Okay, so you guys tell me if I'm just being nitpicky...
What I ordered...
What I received...
I'm guessing that I misunderstood "durable PU Leather,top notch quality fabric has been used with outstanding craftsmanship,highly durable, comfortable and easy to wear." I thought PU leather would mean Leather like or leather look. I guess PU stands for pee-yew.
I also misunderstood, "Including: A jumpsuit+ Gloves+ Belt + Helmet + shoes"
Maybe I got the deluxe version where they were able to combine all of those elements into one item?
I'm also sensing that sarcasm doesn't come across on message boards very well.
Pretty much. It's sort of like those onsies people wear to hockey games. The feet and gloves are all part of it. I didn't get any kind of mask or helmet. I'm not going to contact them about a return, shipping would be on me and probably cost me most of the $46.00 that they probably won't refund anyways.
Maybe I just got a dud. I mean the reviews are all good. Surely they can't fake those.
@SlyFox740What are you using for the scope rail? I see in the Reference that it sits a little higher than on the ANH blasters. I'm planning on doing the "Z" attachment at the end and the post attachment at the front.
I got that email too even though I had signed up over two years ago, ordered, paid, waited, and then cancelled, then waited for a refund, ordered from another vendor, started building, received refund.
11b30b4 - did you trim your butt and cod armor at all? I'm thinking I'm going to have to do something, but I'm not sure where to start. Maybe narrowing the cod and just reducing the butt a bit.
I'm ready to attach the thigh ammo pack and the shin's sniper knee plate. It's hard to tell exactly how they are supposed to align. I found this image but it seems a little haphazzard.
I was looking at the ammo pack being more aligned with the edged of the thigh armor and the sniper plate lining up to look more like an extension of the shin's trim.
