@mrbill8128 yeah I see that after the pic. It’s been sorted but haven’t done another pic. Also noticed I will need to have some way of keeping the boot up but that’s already in progress just for another day Also gonna fit foot straps yeah it’s attached to the bund and it was indeed inside out lol Honestly still shaking have posted that lol

To say my anxiety is going off the charts is a huge understatement. I’m trying to stop my hands shaking and bursting into tears as I hate what I look like and I know I’m a big fella. A few things regarding the dressing. I did this on my own , yes I struggled and yes I’m aware ( thanks for @Aradun’s help in spotting that. I also now the rh bell is all over as the ties haven’t been shortened to length yet and the elastic anchor came loose. These are now getting rectified. I just wanted to try it on despite it looking a mess and there are dressing issues galore ,but with help dressing and sorting the last couple of things I will be the chubbiest scout in the empire but hey we sit on bikes yeah lol please be kind. This is a huge thing for me ps I was baking so obv no neckcovering and balaclava

Quick addition today. Stuck on suit and positioned and then makes suit using white tape. Then peeled backing off Velcro and placed on suit and stuck down. This should be okay but can always secure with fabric glue and weight if needed.

Suit arrived and fits with the extra midriff bit. Tiny bit long in sleeve lengths but that’s not an issue with the gloves. now to sort full dress up an clearance pics

Suit on way back from chef. Should be here tomorrow/ today (Saturday)

Be interested in that as well. I see he also does a dlt-20. Same as in that comes ready be assembled and paint but that’s easy enough providing it’s a good print

Update from Chef Suit updated and is waiting to be posted

Cheers Pete. ( @Retrofire ) Means a lot. Would you say the weathering is at a point where it’s good? Other than that everything is good to go for final dress and clearance.

Apologies for yet another photo dump but I decided to try to dial some of the weathering right back as per convo with GML. Have also uploaded pics to my ISG WIP but as always I would love some input /advice from you wonderful people. Just want this done now , im so close. AFIAK everything else , boots etc is okay but that can bar sorted as need be so they are still as shown previously TIA

That’s what she said. Huurr rhuurrr Scout looks great. Can’t wait till het suit back to get mine cleared

Looking great bill bit too clean tho 😉

Right that’s okay. Cool 😀 front armour now sorted. tweaked holster boot but not hard to sort out further magic eraser pad due today if needed

Bund front and cod , back and pouch Looked at the scoutopedia link for these. Hope it’s okay , knowing my luck though.. this is where I start to panic massively

Cheers. Yeah the bund and pouches are all good. All pics are uploaded on ISG as well but all advice is good advice after all

@Retrofire First attempt and latest. Least it’s an easy fix Latest Would value your and anyone else’s input

Cheers Pete. I had to redo the front as had a wind/sneeze issue and from of armour was a bit too done ive cleaned it off and redone it. I’ll sort a pic out.

Quick pic. This will lighten as it’s drying ( very fresh ) followed the images on here from other cleared and the video so fingers crossed

Right. It's weathering day , temp about 9 degrees in real money and some cloud. No wind so it's time. Have everything I need and the tutorial video queued up. This way when the suit is back its dressing , pouch check and securing then clearance pics woohoo

Yeah. all I’ve had to to do is cover the postage to him

Chef has the flightsuit back so all being well won’t be too long now. It it stops being so damn wet I can get the weathering done lol

Quick update Flightsuit off back to chef to be sorted. in mean time added Velcro to back of knees , back of belt either side of the join and the front ‘buckle box’ just in case. Also had issue with the fitted zip tie anchors coming off their adhesive backing on the shoulder so removed them , cleaned the surface and fitted new ones with new zip ties. Then I remembered the armour video that @BikerScout007did so went back and checked that , then copied the solution to fit the top anchor to the shoulder bridges. So that now has a tie anchor stuck to a piece of industrial Velcro secured to the Velcro on the bridge cover. Make the pain stop lol

No matter how long it takes eh brother 😉 😂😂😂

Yeah. Already spelt to him and resubmitted the correct measurements. one option he mentioned is to add an elastic section to make up the difference. This would be at a point where the bind would hide it I assume. I’ll be sending it back on Monday and it’ll be done when it’s done. it’ll be fine in the end

Houston we have a problem flightsuit isn’t tall about above the waist so can’t get over shoulders. I need to remeasure and sort that That’s my mistake and it’s sortable the main thing is that all the amour fits , had to use the extensions , but the test fitting was with ISG scouts so belt bind etc all good. The upper arm t-bits are both exactly the same so the pointy bits are both the same now the crl just states there has to be a t-bit bit but nothing on the L/R orientation. Hoping that would be okay its a blip but it’s all sortable

So full face helmet fit with padding and cup. Hopefully that cant be seen.
