Smaller chest and back plates


Recommended Posts

I asked a long time ago about modding my FX chest and back plates, but never got the nerve to cut. So I want to ask some new questions.

 

Which chest/back plates are smaller than the FX?

I do not want anything that I have to paint. It must be white ABS and match the rest of my FX.

Would this be acceptable if I were to begin to try and make it to elite status?

 

btw, my suit is FX with an AP bucket (color matches perfectly) and I'm one of those "short" TKs. :D

 

Thanks.

Jason, how about contacting AP about a chest plate? B)

AP and TM (Troopermaster) both make an accurate size armor in ABS, check Paul out as well! But remember that not all ABS white is the same color tone...FX is more BRIGHT white (bluish tone) and TM and AP will be more milk white, like the original screen armor.

If you're worried about length, you can make them 'look' smaller by trying this and attaching them differently

This way, the neck hole can be really small as they come apart :)

So cos of that, you can pull them higher up your abdomen.

 

I have a TM one and do this cos I'm very wee lol

 

Or is it sideways you're worried about? Your arms can't close comfortable when you hold your blaster?

 

If so, look at the mod on making your own return edge on cut armour

 

TM, SDS (if parts are available) TE AP and many others are smaller yes.

 

I'd cut it...go on ;)
