Hiya! You will likely have to cut the main strap regardless in order to get the desired look. One end will likely attach to the back of your right ab armor and the other to the left front ab armor. Ref screen used pics: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome!! This is where I got mine: https://etsy.me/2XMOyuM Not sure if this is the best or cheapest place but I am happy with it...

Hello peeps, hope you are all safe! I finished up my armor box and am glad to report everything fits. I tried doing the bucket emblem on the wheels, but the result was very “meh”.... As far as my blaster, I have been hesitant to reach out to 3D props as it appears they are having some issues. Not entirely sure what to do... Don’t really want to print one up myself... Will likely wait to see how they are doing a few months from now... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey thank you so much, it has been an awesome journey!! Feel free to reach out for anything! For the undercoat I used restoleum satin dark walnut paint-primer, I also used rustoleum as my clear coat before weathering and after i was done with everything. I did have some issues with the one of the clear coats on a shin which ate up the dark brown and i had to redo everything. I believe it was mostly weather related and improper deployment on my part. I cant speak to using montana gold as an undercoat first hand. However, I have become a huge fan of the brand. If i had to redo, would likely go with a montana dark brown for the undercoat... So to recap the only negative reaction i had was throwing a rustoleum clear coat on a rustoleum dark brown. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thx guys. Appreciate the input! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Understood! I will wait until I have a finished package for you guys. Makes more sense, thank you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, not confusing, I had seen the requirement for the blaster in a previous post. Was just wondering If i could/should get everything else knocked out or if I should wait for the blaster before I even start a thread. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you!! Judging by their posts it does look like they will be very backlogged as they are still taking in orders... But it’s all for a good cause, so more power to them. Thank you for the recommendation on the pants, I will definitely pull them up!!! Ok, I will take some new pics and put my Vanguard submission in! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you sir!!! It was almost a bit heartbreaking to be done lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Approved!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

OK I have submitted for approval!!!! I did have a question. As stated, my goal is Vanguard, however I don't yet have a blaster (waiting on NL props to start working again). I know that I can't be approved until I have a blaster, but would love to start working on the armor towards that goal. Would it be out of place to submit for Vanguard with what I have? Here are some of the pics I submitted!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good morning peeps! Finally finished up the bucket and the rest of the missing pieces. Hopefully my next set of pictures will be the ones I submit for basic approval!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you! I will give it a shot... If not accurate, I will try to source from UK. Thx! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Some small steps today, but finally took some full body pics with what I have. Still missing a couple of pieces but definitely helped in identifying some issues and areas that need improvement or need to be corrected. Feel free to chime in!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys, does anyone know where to source the chin cup in the US? My understanding is that it needs to be JSP JS-AHV000-500-000, but i can’t find a place to get it from. I did find these two, but I cant tell if they are the same. Does anyone know? https://www.fullsource.com/jsp-281-csd-2pt?gac=1550001466609&shop=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw4871BRAjEiwAbxXi21kuqpH9NP6m_0NA9gmyd6nPsp4tfeGV5TWQ5hgkDxqOSM_5ai3I4xoCNkUQAvD_BwE https://m.galeton.com/product/detail/2-point-standard-jsp-reg-hardhat-chin-strap/11760-product/?set=FreeShip_50&code=FREESHIP50&gclid=CjwKCAjw4871BRAjEiwAbxXi2yvxJly7el04c4EDrGHOSW4bnTydSyfgm9IXSokecEkUgu7DQBNIbBoCLyAQAvD_BwE Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Updates for today. Starting to work on the fit!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you sir!! Appreciate the guidance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So after much research and photo comparing I noticed that I was measuring the wrong way. Below is what I came up with. Also some updates on other pieces. Really coming together now!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Might go with this.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Greetings peeps! I could use some help with my Left Shoulder bell measurements. I am using Theo’s and Paul’s wips to guide me as well as comparing to screen used pics(eyeballing). I did have a question, are the measurement supposes to be consistent throughout the bell? Or should they taper? From what i have seen they should be the same at all times. Here are some pics with the measurements that made sense to me... Any advice is welcome... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Started painting some of the blue areas. Forearm needs some touching up but overall fairly happy how they came out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am very happy how the shoulder strap magnets came out. Thank you Theo and Stefan for your instructions on that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hope all are well! Ran into some issues today. While weathering my shoulder bell I decided to give weathering spray a shot, since i will need it for the blue sections of the armor. I haven’t used this product before but it was a complete fail... I followed the directions in the bottle and even watched some youtube vids... I think i may have deployed it too close to the surface, it pretty much ate the Sahara paint job lol. I sanded down the bell and have started from scratch on it lol. Any advice on how to use the weathering spray are welcome. I’m pretty sure it was user error, but have also chucked that can in case it was a bad batch... Other than that here are some other updates: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had loads of fun today... That sahara beige looks absolutely phenomenal, almost makes me want to switch to grunt! Lol Here are some progress pics and took one of the entire armor for funsies. [ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
