Thanks for your application. For me the ribs on the bund could be closer togther, then you could bring in your pouches a touch, the pouches also look a little under sized on your frame, lets see what the others have to say.

Ive posted this up in the admin area, just waiting for the others to post their thoughts

Pretty good app mate, couple of things jump out at me, the foam filling in your pouches want to be covered as the black is showing, just over lay them with some fabric that matches the pouches and it will hide it. Second thing is you want to adjust your arm armour a little as it looks a little out, I only have quite short arms and my SC armour sat the same untill I trimmed some off the bottom of the shoulder bells and a little off my bicep tops, which then brought everyting in line and a cleaner better fitting look

HI guys weve had an email from Matt Mills (TX-5575) of the Special ops detachment, they are doing a charity fund raiser for a very good cause, support if you can please, there is also a free raffle for 501st members. It is for the Shriners Childrens hospital, please take a look this is their donation page http://support.shrinershospitals.org/site/...&pxfid=3280 This is to the 501st main forum about the raffle http://www.501st.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t...asc&start=0 Thanks for your time

I just use a rectangle of foam cut perfect to size to keep it square, Ive since cut a recess in mine to hold my rom/fx voice amp

16" is reguarded as high your right, but not if your 6'5" It all comes down to looks and scale, I usually say you need a gap of around 20mm between the top of the boot and bottom of the knee armour for the look to be right. Boots will always sag a bit as they wear in, but thats just the nature of the beast

Not bad at all, how did you cut the soles in the end mate?

They sure are, youve done a great job

Not bad at all mate, I probably wouldnt of used spray glue for the toes though, as the boots bend and crease as you walk the glue is more than likely to fail as its just not up to the job, far better to use E6000 or goop, you maybe lucky though but mine came off after a few troops and you can never get them stretched again as before. But looks wise toes possibly could have done with anouther stretch near the laces, not sure if you have the dog bone trims on upside down, but overall not bad mate

Yup I glue mine totally not just the ends, I use E6000 or goop and pin it down and tape while setting

Lets see some progress pics then matey

I just went to aircombat on the net UK based, cheap and chearfull. needs pockets unpicking that arnt needed but its thin and cool to wear and does the job just fine for me

Well done mate The Lancer army grows

Not fussy as long as I get drunk lol As Dave has said as soon as I Mike adds his comments you will hear back mate

I love my hyperfirm pistol, im going to have to talk nicely to one of my States side brothers to buy me one and ship it on at some point as SF wont ship to the UK As my misses needs one

You will find a dremmel will just sort of melt it, I use a sharp craft knife and curved hobby scissors bro

Il accept lager if its on offer

Cool glad that bit of advice worked

Im happy Im also thinking it could be the holster pulling it a little, if you look in the last pic you can see the crease in the boot starts at the bottom corner of the holster, ok as is but if you want perfect if the holster could be heated up to make it more curved to match your leg would sort it right out I think. But Im happy to go ahead as is as its more of less sorted, in any case there will always be a certain amount of creases, that is just the nature of the boots. Good work mate, you have a nice looking scout.

I wonder if the elastic strap is what is causing your flight suit to be so tight around your leg, making the boot on the right hand side to look loose at the top as the left leg doesnt? Did you try just sewing a square of velcro direct to your flight suit to hold the boot up?

Right your pretty much there, something has been brought up and that is the weight of the blaster pulling down your right boot. Now it does look like you have quite skinny calfs, so you have a fair bit of slack in the boot tops. This slack couldnt be taken up by Witness as you will then loose the shape of the boot making them un acceptable, so your stuck with that, but you could try velcro'ing the boot to your flight suit to support or add something to the inside of the boots bro, its no big deal just a tweak. It could even be the way youve attached the holster pulling it a little? I thought I mentioned this in your build thread? Get this done and submit a new picture, front on of you in kit, and your good to go mate I recon.

Good job trooper

lbs means nothing to me but im a 45" chest and SC fits me just fine

Your forearm armour looks like it wants to go up a touch also bro Also a little tweak to your suede crotch patch would be needed, where it sits flat at the top, you can see corners sticking out each side of your cod, un pick it a little, trim some curves each side and re stitch, so the patch curves in at the top towards the cod. Have a look at Ducmans build as I got him to do the same mod and it looks 100 times better bro, easy fix

The bells still look a touch flared to me, put some 25mm elastic around the bottom of both bells and your arms to pull them in nice and tight to your arm, which will pull them more into line with the rest of your arm armour.
