Split rivets, cod rivet, Han snap, and butt snaps all fitted. The strapping system is almost complete, I'll post pics later, along with the completed arms.

Lid done, the white stopped the bleed!

Final part of the lid build. Lines done, eyes sorted and a base coat of white put down on the cheeks. The reason for the white is if there is to be any bleed, then it will be the white that does, and not the blue, as the white will hopefully plug where the bleed occurs. We shall see!

Then it was time to trim the ab button plates.
The smaller trimmed down to 70mm x 20mm. The larger has around a 5mm frame surrounding the raised area. Just need a sanding and then they're done

Second coat of grey done and vocoder painted. Need to tidy up the black lines, and then pop on the virticle stripes before doing the tube stripes. Also going to remove the lenses and reduce the flashing around the eyes.

Great work so far Mason.  Not sure if you plan on going to higher levels of approval.  A real easy fix is your drop boxes lining with the ends of the belt.
 

 
I'm not sure if it is just how it is laying flat but a real easy fix is a bit of glue on the back will force them into the right position.

Yea, it was the angle of the photo making it look out of line. It is stitched in place, here's a close up.

Yes, it looks like a mess, but, it's an organised mess! All parts initially sized up ready for trimming. Tapered the biceps, fore arms and thighs. A lot of excess being removed!

Poppers fitted to both belts, holster attachments done. I had to re-punch holes for the rivets due to my old plastic belt being a different size. The holster poppers and rivets are the correct distance of 20mm away from the ammo belt edge. Drop boxes done and stitched in place to stop movement along the belt. Just waiting for the glue to cure on the cover plates.
