TKSpartan[Staff] Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 10 hours ago, Alikh said: sizing with the shin sniper and thigh ammo added. I need to tighten the lower eod of both thighs to get a better ergonomic fit, but Im thinking I may be about there, sizing wise? The sniper plate almost touches the thigh, but I think that won't be an issue when the thigh fits more snugly at the knee. Looking at the pics it appears the left thigh is a bit higher than the right- thats just a result from where I stuck it on a temporary velcro garter I made to keep everything up while I sized it. Its sitting more evenly in previous pics. Kidney I need to pull up, especially where it sags on my right. Abdomen I tried pulling up a bit tonight, but there wasnt much to be gained there without discomfort. Hi Alex, If I may , adjusting a little more the lower section of your thighs (it looks like you have enough room) would give a better look. Not too square legs. This is easy to accomplish by reducing lower section joint. References 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too square legs. It could also possibly eliminate the need of filling in any gap in higher approvals later on! Lower thigh ridge joins (front and rear) shall butt-up flush against each other. Any gaps must be backed with ABS or filled as not to be noticeable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alikh[TK] Posted April 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2023 Ok, so it took forever.... but I think I finally have the build done. Obv still a checklist of things to go through for higher approval, but at least the armor is fully constructed and fitted to me at this point.

Alikh[TK] Posted April 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2023 Made myself an e-11 this weekend! Picked up a 3d printed e-11 kit from @kmwilson343 . I ordered it with all the hard parts already pre assembled. The kit, as it arrived: After some sanding with 80 and 120 grit, applied the Bondo Sanded down again with 120 and then 400 I primed it, then painted a few coats of both flat black and silver, followed by a several coats of clearcoat. The spring is currently missing in these pics, because I took it out while painting and well..... just now realized I forgot to put it back in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what I went with. Although I added @justjoseph63 metal sterling folding stock .I was really pleased with his E-11. Heres some pictures of mine.
