caaw Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Hi folks been building a biker scout. I got the armour and helmet from someone all ready built. I have ordered some new drop boxes and drop box straps to change to smaller boxes and wider straps. The flight suit has artificial suede on it so i have some genuine suede to replace the rising patches and but flap. The boots have been made i have a new holster on the way as this one was previously fitted with 5 rivets and is showing stress fractures. New Leather gloves ordered awaiting delivery. Any pointers glaring errors help cheers caaw
spookymufu Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 I'm no expert but it looks like the bicep part with the T bits are upside down.....
Chunk Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Easy fix to both. Just flip them over. You placed the biceps on upside down. Can the clips be rotated on your TD? If so rotate them too so it sits right.
Chex Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Redo the pin striping on your tank so that it runs straight across and doesn't slant down.
caaw Posted August 2, 2014 Author Posted August 2, 2014 Yeah the td and biceps are on upside down. I shouldnt take pics after a full day at work being tired. And the pin striping that can be changed. Any thing else? or does it look pretty much ok?
caaw Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 Heres a more updated pic with a local group still awaiting my new flight suit. Should have that by end of next week and then will put it in for clearance.
Darth Voorhees Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Looks good to me! The smaller drop boixes make a huge difference...i think you'll be good to go. Did ya fix the pinstripe on the tank?
caaw Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 Yep fixed the pinstripe as well also cut slot into biceps so elastic passes in front rounded corners on shoulder bells. Fixed extra elastic onto knees, fitted td correct way round.
Darth Voorhees Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Sweet, ya look great and being a former GML, i think you'll have no problem getting cleared 1
caaw Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 ok so i have been working on the costume and think its done heres some pics.
bikerscout73 Posted April 18, 2015 Posted April 18, 2015 Looks like your cumberbun is not all the way velcroed in the back......looks open
caaw Posted April 20, 2015 Author Posted April 20, 2015 belt is sitting on waist bund wasnt fastened correctly wife helped ill get picks of flak vest up its in wash at the minute.
caaw Posted May 10, 2015 Author Posted May 10, 2015 Here is a new set of pics for clearance velcro fastened properly what do you all think
rasman06 Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Looking good. I would pull up those drop boxes a bit and even them out from front to back. Need to be about 1.5-2.0 inches below your belt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
