  1. Congrats, well done!
  2. Thanks. Overall it's looking good, just a number of smaller points to address: - Flight suit at the legs too baggy - Knee guards should sit about an inch above the boots - upper arm armor should face to the sides - drop boxes should sit higher (max one inch below the belt) - pouches should sit a bit closer to the ribs (about an inch away from the last rib respectively) and come up a bit - try to get the gap between the shoulder bells and the armor evenly on the front and the back. Currently you have a very large gap on the front and a smaller one on the back. In doubt I would have a larger gap on the back and a smaller on on the front. Cheers, Constantin
  3. I mean copy in the way that I am able to see your pictures in this thread without having to click on links.
  4. Hi Aaron, thanks for your application - may I ask you to copy all relevant pictures in this thread (not just links) before we proceed with our review? Thanks, Constantin
  5. Hi Rob, great to see this project coming to live! I wonder if that is the efx armor but I understand you have to keep it confidential 😉 Nothing wrong with the IB boots per se, they're "okay" (though not approvable for Lancer out of the box). I guess with bringing out an CFO armor you've set the expectations high for the rest of the gear as well 😉 I've made a thread covering all bits and pieces of the biker scout armor which you might find helpful here >>> Cheers and good luck on the project! Constantin
  6. Hi Ruthar, this is a great application and it shows your passion for the bikerscout armor :) Just 2 things to point out for us; the mandatory one is the blaster. The barrels are carved out at the front and should be filled/flat. That should be an easy fix, you can use some putty filler and paint it black afterwards. You can check out some pics of an original blaster here: http://www.originalprop.com/blog/2018/04/26/exclusive-details-photos-original-han-solo-blaster-movie-prop-from-return-of-the-jedi-to-be-sold-by-juliens-auctions-in-june/ The optional part is not necessary for your Lancer app but something you might want to consider for future upgrades; the cod piece runs down rather straight and is a tad bit long. The section starting below the belt should be more tapered towards the cod. Cheers
  7. It's really been some time somebody nailed it on the first shot - very well done indeed! Please see announcements
  8. Dear all, please join me in congratulating Jake "Gruntsky" TB-67890 in achieving the rank of Lancer. Great job, Jake!
  9. Hi, thanks for your application. We'll review and get back!
  10. Strapping cleared from my end
  11. Hahaha, sorry, bro - I had to do it ;-) About time I would say, heh? Looking forward to reviewing this fine application Cheers
  12. Please join me in congratulating Chris "Bootlegger137" TB-14831 in achieving the rank of Lancer. Well done, Chris!
  13. Congratulations, Chris - please see announcements
  14. Hi Jake, TD tube looks great but the point for the mud flap was to make it wider not longer... Cheers
  15. Hey Jake, definitly looking a lot better - good job! We still need to see the td tube and the mud flap. The cod piece has still some wrinkles but I there's def improvement. Cheers
  16. Stunning build, really nice work!!
  17. Hey Tyler, not sure if you've seen it but I've written a tutorial on how to assemble the armor here >>> http://forum.bikersc...opic=17305&st=0 Hope that helps!
  18. Hi Chris, thanks for you application - here's your list - pouches should be between an inch away from the last rib (respectively) and the outer edge of the chest armor - please try to pull up the cod by about an inch - the drop boxes should hang about an inch higher (please check references) - the suit is bunched up a bit, particularly around the knees 0 The boot shaft is a tad bit baggy (no action required at this time) + Nice job on the TD! Cheers
  19. Yes, but it was a close call. Yes, the shadow on the area above the arch gives the appearance as if it is not padded (or to a lesser degree as the area below the arch).
  20. Yeah, I think most points can be fixed with a new cummerbund/cod piece. Not sure if you can fix the current boots without affecting their integrity. Also the general shape of the underlying boot is not very accurate so you might just consider this as potential future upgrade.
  21. Hey Jack, please feel free to ask any questions in this thread. Cheers
  22. Hi Jake, please see our findings below: - cod piece: upper part need more padding - belt sits too high; as a rule of thumb the pouches should sit on top of the belt - mud flap should be about an inch wider - TD tube: color should be a medium grey - suit is bunched up between the knee guards and the boots Optional but recommended: - boots: the sole (particularly the front part) is too big
