"buckle" on the CB glove

[Heatshock]

a few troopers have asked me abt this bit in the CRL

here was a pic supplied to me by MB way back when

I do NOT have access to any of the original pics though

 

 

its not a formal 'buckle' per se. I would say you could use one if you like, and its colour is to match the grey of the strap. Alternatively, some well place thin black thread or paint would do the same

ah, ok ya would not have seen that otherwise. thinking id use that to sew the 2 ends of the material together with the same material sewn sideways so it gives the same color but with a definite break to show the lines. need to redo that part of my gloves anyways.

I was always wondering about that. I had also seen another picture, but I can't find it, of the glove and that same strap, but it was wider on one part. It was a high-def pic like this one, but of a different angle. Almost like the glove strap would have stretched at a certain point. Still can't find that pic.

Yeah, "not a formal buckle," but one of those little details that we want to add. Right?

 

So, same width around the wrist area would be okay?

 

And Nate,

Look at these pics, and tell me what you think of the elbow straps. To me, it looks like a regular clone elbow strap, but it has two grey strips with a black strip in the center. Not at all like the two black separate strips that we have been doing. Are we okay on ours? And should it be changed to what's in the screen cap and the other pics?

Let me know what you think about it.

 

 

 

 

And in your pic of the glove, you can even see thread stitches in the knuckle pads. Cool.
