My only minor gripe with them advertising this as the “first 100% screen accurate armour” is that they’re using the Imperial Boots boots.  Which are not screen accurate.

Looking forward to seeing the complete kit. I'm waiting to see how far thier gonna go with the soft parts as far as accuracy.  I'll own a set of the armor hands down.

Hi Guys. 

 

I am here to research but had to stop by the thread. Any advise on soft parts is very welcome. It is only the armour which is full screen accurate/made from studio produced armour but I would like to aim high for the soft parts too.

I have to ask, but are you aiming to use your current Scout Boots for this kit, or are you looking to recreate something similar to the Sierra Sneakers?

Currently we are looking at running with the current IB Scout Boot. Do you have issues with it? 

 

 

Hi Rob, great to see this project coming to live! I wonder if that is the efx armor but I understand you have to keep it confidential  😉

Nothing wrong with the IB boots per se, they're "okay" (though not approvable for Lancer out of the box). I guess with bringing out an CFO armor you've set the expectations high for the rest of the gear as well 😉

I've made a thread covering all bits and pieces of the biker scout armor which you might find helpful here >>>

 

 

Cheers and good luck on the project!

Thanks Constantin, I'll check that thread out. We are aiming for Lancer right out of the box, I know its a high standard but you have to aim for it right?

I think that "issues" is probably far too strong of a word :) , but the sole and boot shaft are two of the areas that would prevent them from Lancer approval.

looks great! curious how the planning would look like regarding the softparts. anything you can share on this ? thanks!

I've read the Lancer tutorial / thread , and am still non the wiser about boots .... to be exact, what is incorrect about the boots offered by ImperialBoots ?

there are several things:

~ the vertical stitching on the front shaft part of the boot
looking at the photos they have listed now, the only pic showing the front shaft stitching is the last picture, the shaft folded down and open, you can see the vertical stitching there. 
have they changed their design since the picture was taken?

~ the velcro closure on the rear closes the wrong way.  theirs close to the outside instead of to the inside

~ is the velcro the correct width?
idk 


and this last pointer is more preference and of how it will look rather than not pass lancer.
~ the sole voids will leave odd placement for the sole cutouts, the original voids are not even.

I am going to add on to what 762s said.

The soles on Imperial Boots are different from the origional boot soles. The slots and spaces are different (like 762s stated), and can't really be modified easily to make them look like the screen used boots, like needed for Lancer.

Rs:

And origional:

Also the bone stitching and bone position look a little off, but that's not as important as the soles.

I mean, technically the armor is screen accurate, just maybe not the other stuff. :P

It's early days for the RS armour.
They seem to,be working hard upgrading the soft parts as we speak !

When they eventually release this armour to us, I'm sure it will be sorted .
