  1. Thanks a Mill DEO! yes i unfortunately saw that the belt dropped a bit myself, hehe. Im going to do the single Snap in the center as you suggested keeping the belt up. Hi Brien, I did a combo of Magnets, snaps, and Velcro. Magnets on the Chest and Torso, Snaps on the bells, arms and thighs, and velcro on arms, knees, etc Thanks Paul!!! Fantastic to hear good feedback!! Gents - A note After i took these submission pics, i did see a few items needing addressing 1) Belt in the front dropped, can see the top of the cod 2) Knee plates are too low, need to be centered 3) Spats need to be a bit lower as covering the pill holes on the shins 4) Upper arm Gaskets peeking out from under the biceps. Im working on each of these items to address and any additional feedback is welcome. Andy
  2. And then theres Resin Helmets. I find that Resin offers the greatest detail in helmets, then FGlass, finally ABS. I have FGlass for my FO and Like the weight,.
  3. This still cracks me up. I wouldnt bet $1 on anything that Anovos says cause it would be a sure loss.
  4. Hi All, heard from my garrison that they were submitting my submission up to legion for review assistance. as such, figured id post them up for staff to see them here as well. hope this helps.

  6. Of course i went looking for this set at Target so can have a MicroMe! but alas they did not have any. oh well. haha
  7. Thank you Daniel, Deo and Glen! Much appreciated. As far as Submission, i have not heard anything back from my garrison CTG. im only hoping that they have reached out to you here at FISD for assistance as we dont have any FOs in my garrison. Hopefully will hear something back, but nothing as of now. Andy
  8. Hey Brian, I use a photo hosting site called Imgur. Its free and hosts all your pics, though not sure if there is a limit as i havnt hit one. You can create an album then upload your pics, they also offer built in editing tools and offer the BBCode links for forums. Give them a shot.
  9. Thanks a Mill Darren and Same here! I keep checking for status updates on my submission. Its killing me!!! And it Feels SOOOOO good to be suited up in that FO! WOW!!!!!
  10. Wanted to share last modifications before Submitting pics for approval Chest - Adding Magnets While i initially did snaps, it was nearly impossible to access them. So after speaking with a few fellow FO troopers: Darren Vaughan and Kevin Snow they suggested Magnets. Here i took ABS and using 1" PVC Strips, i adhered these to the yoke using Loctite Marine Epoxy: For the Magnets, i used Loctite 60sec CA I bought some D-profile Rubber weatherstripping and lined both the inside of the neck, around the chest, and lower yoke in hopes to protect the paint on the Abs and elsewhere. Aerator installed Final Pic with Aerator Inside of the Helmet Padding, Mic, VoiceAmp, Speakers, Dual Fans etc installed Thighs Holster Installed Shins with PillHole Detail For the Knee Gaskets, they were a bit too bulky, so i inverted them and ran a new stitch on the sewing machine then cut off the excess Done
  11. its on sale right now for $191.25 for the TLJ TK Helmet. Thats a great price for a complete ready to wear. now if you can also find someone that has the $25 off coupon then even better winner.
  12. HA! Good luck with them.. A few of us will order from them from time to time but dont expect anything for a year. As long as your good with that then best of luck. Personally i wouldnt order Armor from them if you are attempting to have it completed for an upcoming event.
  13. The Helmet interior is a 1/4' black headliner material i got at Joanne Fabrics and the Helmet Liner is from Amazon. Believe it was for the Vega Line motorcycle helmets.
  14. What is that cool cup one of them is holding? Oh it’s a blaster. Hahaha
  15. So under the shoulder bells, just about where the FO Insignia is, there is a single snap pad. I ran a strap from the bell to the biceps. Just helps keep them up.
  16. LOL "Executed" hahah!!! i see the pun Matt - Looks great man!!!! great work!
  17. Some great progress and starting to look good Viktor!
