Stroker Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Eliot thanks for the app. The team and I will go over it in the coming days. Please be patient with us as we are working on two other Lancer apps. Also the election put a hold on some stuff as well. We'll get back to you soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroker Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Eliot we've been over your app and this is what we've found. It may seem like a lot,but don't let it overwhelm you. If you have any questions what so ever please shoot em my way @Stroker. Helmet Looks good. The pop shot weathering needs to be knocked back. Super fine steel wool will get the job done without harming the underlying paint. Flight Suit The thigh straps are not attached evenly. The front straps looks to be attached 1" higher than the back. It's throwing the way the straps set on your thighs off. The butt flap also has a seam running the entire edge all the way around. The flap needs to a single piece of actual suede meaning it shouldn't have any visible seam at all. Shoulder Armor Left shoulder needs to be brought in a little to match the right. Vest We would like to see a picture of the Velcro closure on the back of the vest along with a measurement. Chest/Back Armor It appears the chest and back connection is nylon? If so it needs to be swapped out to cotton. I'd knock some of the weathering back a little also. Back Armor The tank topper will need the hole filled in with a epoxy filler or something similar and then the white circle painted on top of the filled area. The screen used toppers had the white circle painted on. The rivet on the bottom of the tank needs to be silver not white. Cummerbund Pouch flaps look a little long? They look to be a 1\2 longer than they should. They should not pass the bottom of the pouch. Bund looks to like it's dropping on the right side. You can use some Velcro to help hold it in place. Also the bund is not fully closed in the back it could possibly be causing the dropping problem. I'd have someone help me for the next round of pictures. Belt and Detonator Drop boxes are setting to far forward they need to be brought back and leveled out. The boxes need to set no more than 1" from the bottom of the belt. Belt clips will need to also be repositioned once you get the boxes corrected. Also is that elastic you used on the drop box strapping? We can't tell if it's cotton or elastic. Ideally you want the cotton webbing from the bottom of the chest and back closure to match the drop box strapping. Knee Armor Lower strap is 1" it needs to be changed out to 3\4" or 1\2" Boots You did some great work carving the sole out! However the sole needs to be painted a matching wheat color. We don't accept the two tone sole for Lancer. It has to be a solid wheat color. A local hobby store will have wheat color paint or something super close. Blaster Gonna need some pictures of your blaster. Definitely need pictures of the front and back of it along with a picture of it in the holster. Please have it holstered when you take the next round of pictures. Like I said don't let it overwhelm you. Also have some help you dress out next time and spot you for the next round of pictures. If you need any help at all just reach out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nimble Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 I have been slowly working ar collecting materials to correct the issues. Some of the fitment issues were due to my shoulder being out of joint at the time the pictures were taken but i can redo those. Unfortunately white cotton webbing in various sizes has been hard to find locally. I had to go with a blend on some parts originally and hoped that would be enough visually. Some other issues have been corrected Im just waiting to upload everything again when its all done unless its ok to submit it here piece by piece? Here are a few completed items. -Knee armor strapping has been changed -Belt box strap was nylon but has been changed to cotton and weathered to match the rest Blaster is also a DVH. I was confused as to the description in the crl. Do i need to add clear lens discs to it or as long as it appears to have a lens is it ok? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroker Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Yes any pictures you have that shows the above items mentioned please post them here. Blaster doesn't have a actual lens,the dvh blaster is good to go for Lancer status as is. Take your time and don't get discouraged. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
