Like Johnny Cash said! One piece at a time! Looking good bro! 

hahaha thanks my brother! better to do every piece slow but near perfection than to do it quickly and it looks like crap...

tonight I’ll try to finish the tank!

Strider chestpiece looks flawless, those return edges really are neat!

just wondering, how long will they soak in tea you think?



thanks buddy! appreciate it!!

my current pouches took a 2-3 min to soak before I took them out and put them back in for another minute or so.. just to checl on them if the are not getting too dark. its not rocketscience and if they turned out too dark, wash them with warm water to make them lighter..

update : shoulderbells done and connected with zipties.. have to test it out if my shoulder holds, otherwise I’ll velcro the straps instead of a knot.

also finished the underarm armor! up next : biceps armor. we’re getting there!

I know right! I am just beat from all this work I've done! :P

 

In all seriousness, nice job on the shoulders and forearms. Can't wait to see this all come together.

thanks bro!! Luckily I am already Lancer and built a kit before, so I use that experience in combination with doing research to finish this as nice and accurate as possible!
