Gojira72 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 So I am most of the way completed on my Captain build. I am using the Imperial Surplus V2 kit and I was curious if anyone who had built it has any tips on how to do the straps at the top of the chest and back. There is this metal plate underneath with these nylon straps with Velcro attached to them. I was wondering if anyone who has either built the kit or any other kit with a similar system has any tips for how to get this attached?

Tarok Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Imperial surplus has a series of videos on their YouTube for the Mudtrooper. happy to be corrected, but I believe the Shoretrooper straps the same way.HTHSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I only have the V1 and haven't gotten my hands on a V2 yet. Have you joined Project Sandstorm? That is the build group for Imperial Surplus Shore and Tanker kits https://www.facebook.com/groups/185085985241647 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gojira72 Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 So after a little bit of digging I found this image from Imperial Surplus showing some marks as to where how to place the straps and more specifically the cut marks for the front straps. Here is a close up with my chest plate. The cut is not clean, however it is covered by the strap paddle so it does not bother me very much. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMxxON3PjcP7OTRcrTaBWb4iWrB_XWBVVSJww_y-c00Di1Zi-uo5xU-p_27rMZQeA?key=QVBhRWNFekVYYXZQOG92QVE2Qmo4a19reW9kcHlB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
