Thank you guys this is all really helpful information! The belt is dropping because I need to adjust the Velcro - I’ve lost 2.5kg since I first started the project so will add Velcro and adjust the belt fitting - I will also change the length of the cod piece elastic as I think that’s what’s causing the wrinkles and ‘pull’. And it probably could do with coming up a little too. how are my chest pouches looking - I’m slightly barrel cheated so even with an X-ray bit of length I feel they are still protruding our a little.

Thanks for the tips - will look into that, right now I’m shedding a lot of weight what with works gym now being open again to employees so the belt is definitely going to need adjusting so do you think I’m at the point where I can start the Lance application?

So more trimming on the chest and back plate along with the straps, and some other small adjustments

So did some more work on the cumber band and cod piece to meet Lancer spec - @Retrofire and @Chopperwhat do you all think?

A bit of Endor weathering while walking the dog!

Another job done

Totally agree - time to break out the airbrush

Finished - plus a little more weathering

one boot down!

Chop chop chop!!!

Hold my beer - hahahaha

Ahh yes, the boots are already on my ‘to do’ list - I need to post more measurement photos too. also my GML’s approved the costume this morning (JST) so now it’s full steam ahead for Lancer Approval!!

Is there anything else you can see that might hinder my application for lancer?

Awesome information!! Many thanks for that! the stitch line has completely gone now as I removed the thread completely and then washed it - I’ve used a different method to attach the cod price to the cumber band that I think is much neater. I also repacked the pouches as they looked off in the photos and aligned the flaps properly.

No time like the present!! chop chop!!
