Hi There,

This is a continuation of my earlier introduction thread here . I ordered everything from Chef's Creations . Which as you can see in this picture delivered most soft parts:

Flight Suit, Cummerbund, Flak Vest, Boots, pouches. So now I need the armor parts and helmet. I am thinking about ordering from RSProps

Are there any recommendations? I am thinking about visiting RSProps as well, see if everything fits and how it looks like. Anyways, I would like to hear from you what you think.
As I mentioned in my other thread, I am rather tall so I couldn't order everything from RS Props since they only go up to XL in soft parts.

Pull that bund WAY up.  It should rest right below your pectorals and stop at your waist.  

@Chef makes quality stuff so I'm sure you are in good hands

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah I noticed from other pictures. I tried to put the bund up today and noticed it's perfectly possible.
It doesn't look like Chef's Creations sell everything (armor, helmet etc.) or maybe DIY kits which... I don't look forward to do. Anyways, any hints on buying the other parts to complete the suit, with the exception of a DIY kit from which I am pretty sure I'll screw it up, lol.

I wouldn't worry too much about buying a kit you need to assemble.  The Scout is a very simple armor to build.  It was my very first kit and I did fine!  And I had no experience at all with this sort of thing.  We are here to help.

If you need an assembled kit, RS Props has one on offer and they are in your neck of the woods.

HI Ken,

I'm a 55 year old lady if I can build a kit I reckon you could kill it.

Just as Mickey mentioned we are here to help you along the way. 

Also with your cummberbun, once you start putting together your armour and placing it on, you will find you'll be able to fit your cumberbun in the right place.

Yeah I feel better buying an assembled kit rather then a DIY. I probably have a lot of time to think about it though because of the Corona Crisis.
When time comes, I'll probably make my way to Manchester.

The doors at RS are open six days a week , call up any time and ask for Paul who will show you around and measure you up !
