Chopper Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Hi Mathijs, thank you very much for your application. The Level 2 team has reviewed your application. Overall, very good job! The RS screen used armor really looks great. After looking at your photos, we have the following adjustments for you: Shoulder Armor Your right shoulder is extended out a bit too far. The left one looks good. Please bring in the right shoulder so it's the same distance as the left one.. Upper Arm Armor Your bicep armor appears to be riding low. Please bring your bicep armor up about 2". Also, when you take new photos, please rotate your bicep armor to 90 deg position on the left and right. Optional note -- if you're having trouble keeping the bicep armor in place, you may want to consider putting some velcro on your flight suit and bicep armor to keep it in place. Forearm Armor When you take new photos, please rotate your forearm armor to 90 deg position on the left and right. Otherwise, looks ok. Gloves Please trim the connector tab from both gloves Cummerbund The sewn curve on your cod appears to be too high. You should be able to unpick it and remove the stitch marks using an iron. You should aim to replicate the position of the screen used cod. (See below) Knee Armor Your knee armor looks somewhat oversized when they're on your legs. Please look at using some heat molding to fit them to your body a bit better. If you look at the screen scouts, their knee armor fit much more flush to their legs. (See below) Again, great work overall -- just a few adjustments. You're mostly there. Please let us know if you have any questions or need any clarification. We will do whatever we can to assist.

TK-23181 Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 I've shortened the zipties on the shoulders. I've turned the upperarm pieces to match the picture. I've lowered the cod connection to the bund and shortened the connection of the elastic strap to make the cod piece look longer and shorter at the bottom. I've handled the width of the knee armor by shortening the elastic. I did a total repaint too. The RS was looking too yellow... Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
