You are only missing one close up pic of your sniper knee plate but I can see it in the full body shot. If you could add one to your application to make it complete.

bzb Posted March 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Thank you! Added sniper knee photo, second to last. I still feel like I need to make a couple minor adjustments for fit. We'll see how walking a couple miles this weekend fares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bzb Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Had a failure at the shoulders with the sew-in snaps. Either I flail around like an idiot in the armor, or my sewing skills are sub-par. Or both. I decided to do the double-up and use velcro and snaps on the whole piece. Outside of this, I haven't had any other issues, and functionally everything is working out well with this setup. I've received a lot of compliments on the fit of my armor from other 501st folks, and have had a blast at two parades entertaining kids and adults (and taking a TON of #stormtrooperselfies) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
