Retrofire Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Nice work Mark it's looking great! Those liners look really comfortable in your lid. You'll be able to fine tune the drop boxes once you get suited up. They should be around 3.8 to 5 cm from your belt but that all comes with the final adjustments once you have it all together. Looking forward to seeing your pre-approval thread. 1
Mandalorean Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 Looking good Mark. Yeah, as Peter says, the boxes should hang about 2" below your belt. How you've connected the drop box clips there is fine, but thought I'd point out that the screen used ones were non functional and the webbing just passed behind the clip in one length. With regards to the DLT; I know here in the UK we class all troops as canon and I'm not sure we can take Battlefront images as canon as the game allows any character to carry any weapon. Might be worth a converation with Rob and Marcel. Keep up the good work, Andy 1

You know, it never occurred to me that the clips could be done like that. Ha! I keep forgetting that this is not meant to be for actual combat deployment.
Black Falcon Posted July 12, 2016 Author Posted July 12, 2016 Straps for the back plate. I am a 'belt and braces' kind of guy so along with the glue I have added some good old fashion gaffer tape.
Black Falcon Posted July 12, 2016 Author Posted July 12, 2016 Added the suede patches and elastic straps to the jumpsuit. That was tricky.
Black Falcon Posted July 12, 2016 Author Posted July 12, 2016 Finally found some suitable tube for the TD.
Shada Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Looks like the vacuum cleaner tube I used! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1
