4505Marcel Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Thanks for the app, we will review and get back to you
4505Marcel Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 There are a few issues that jump out to me, the boots are far too short. There is also too much stitching on the rear velcro closure. The velcro on the bund must not have the X stitch showing. Pouches want padding up a little. I would also like to see the TD greeblie flipped over to match the other lancers
PredatorMV Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 When you say the boots are too short how tall should they be? I used the patterns on the boards to make them.
PredatorMV Posted December 4, 2015 Author Posted December 4, 2015 Sorry for he long delay, but I finally got around to updating my boots to the standards set forth. They are about an inch taller and no longer have the excess stitching on the back. I also old greeblie on the TD and flipped it and replaced it. Pics follow.
4505Marcel Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Sorry for delay, the boots usually go up to just under the knee plate. Say a gap of around 20mm ish between boot and knee plate. The stitch around the top of the boot is a little low to be honest, if you look at the movie boots, the stitch is very close to the top of the boot
PredatorMV Posted December 19, 2015 Author Posted December 19, 2015 Wow that would have been good info to know before I rebuilt my boots and finished them.
4505Marcel Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 All the reference can be found on movie stills bud, we don't know for sure about how close the boots are to the knee, as no doubt they were all different, but it is clear yours were very low. 20mm gap ish is what I use personally on my builds
4505Marcel Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 The other issue you will find with your low boot height, there isn't much space to fit the holster in, you will find when you kneel down, the bottom front corner of the holster plate will rip into your boot bud, the top boot seam is low also, the film ones were very close to the top
PredatorMV Posted December 26, 2015 Author Posted December 26, 2015 Yea I don't care anymore. I'm not remaking them a 4th time. Cancel my Lancer app delete this thread
