gazmosis[501st] Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Looks like a pass to me! Rock that armor my man!! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobojuice Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Finally! What took you so long?! Looking good man. I will say that you can drop your biceps down a bit to even out the look of the armor. Edited October 14, 2011 by bobojuice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 I think it's a pass too. If Mason is not back online soon I'll give the thumbs up but am hoping he gets Internet to make the call personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Here is what I'm seeing: * Your shoulder bells keep moving around. I'd suggest you get them strapped up to sit correctly and then re-submit a chest up shot (no need to fully armor up) * The right side gap looks greater than 1/2" to me. The only way around this is to suit up (legs not needed) and have someone hold a tape measure up on each side. I think you are otherwise spot on and you did a great job on your suit. I'm surprised about the first bullet as your GML should have caught that, or your photographer ** ** Then again, my wife has no idea what to look for and has taken pictures of me after I've been moving around and sometimes my left shoulder bell unpops. Very embarrasing. :-p EDIT: oh, and I'd move your shoulder straps down in front a wee more too, but that's just me.

bjsavage7[TK] Posted October 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Yes sir. I'll make corrections and have new pics up tomorrow. Usually the shoulder bells stay put. but yeah, they kept moving around and my wife doesn't have any clue to fix anything wrong with the pictures she takes. LOL. I'll get a tape measure for the sides too. last time I measured it, it was ok. I think I can move the shoulder straps down a little. Shouldn't be a problem. Thanks!

bjsavage7[TK] Posted October 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Heres some pics I just took. I think I have the shoulder bell problem fixed. I moved the biceps down a little, so I think that helped. I measured the side gaps too. Sorry the pics don't look too clear. I also tried to move the shoulder straps down, but I was afriad they would brake, so I had to leave them be until I can figure out how to get them off in one piece.

dashrazor Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 the only problem i can see is the shoulder straps are too much to wards the back of the armor.. i would move them about 1.5 to 2 inches down the front of the chest plate. looking at the way it is glued now (right on the edge of the chest plate)it could break off and possibly ruin your chest armor other than that it appears to be a fine job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjsavage7[TK] Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I moved them down just a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
