So I was slowly building this until I hit con crunch time for Motor City as I had a photo op with Giancarlo Esposito, so rush the finish. 

I noticed afterwards my right shoulder wasn't centered, probably will stick some velcro under to mitigate that issue in the future, but...the question is?

Good to go?

Got a few tweaks?

Go in a corner in shame?

Aside from the shoulder issue you mentioned, you should also pull your cod down a bit, so it's not so scrunched.

Also, remember that the chest pouches need to go over your belt, not under.

That's all I can see from what you posted. Let us know if you have further questions.

I think it’s allowed to be worn under the belt.

Okay, so ive noticed my tank isnt centered. Before I break things trying to separate the tank from the back...is that something that'd get approval kicked back?

Glue, not sure if it was epoxy or some other adhesive. Studio Creations has the flat section to glue the tank on. I can cut inside, shift, then reattach if needed. I can remove the bottom rivet and replace. The day before the con I torn apart my helmet because it wasn't straight.

I use magnets to attach the top part of the tank to the “hump” the bottom part of the tank goes on with Velcro. 
Are you referring to the rivet on top of the tank? Thru the tank topper?

I think you should probably fix the tank if you can, so long as you feel you can remove it without externally damaging the armor.

The rivet on the topper is really just for show as it didn't go through the every layer fully. Which is a good thing in this case

Good to hear that. It should be built as cosmetic.

Good thing the inside is not visible, lots of hot glue and a little ledge made of expanded pvc board.

Always a good idea to shoot some photos to your GML to ensure you're on the right track. We can help you based on the CRL but it's the GML that will ultimately approve you within the garrison.

Yeah, I just wanted perspectives from the pathfinders before submitting. I am now approved :)
