owtlaw17 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Well here goes nothing, would like to see if my gear is up to the challenge! The armor is SC. Tank topper and T-bits are MC. Helmet is MLC with an MC snout. Flightsuit, cummer, and Boots are LG Blaster is PA. I have a Comm system in my chestplate, and i use a hyperdyne board. I also have a neckseal(preference). Any other questions, or pictures needed please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecyclone Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Robert, Need to see a close up pic of your "rank/vent" stripes on your tank and a close up pic of your T-bits. Flip your pouches and bring them in a little closer at the top. Tuck in your collar so it doesn't hang out. Slide belt down a little or bring you cummerbund up, the bottom of the belt should be even with the bottom of the cummerbund. I'd personally prefer you change the black square on the chest to gray, if you need gray vinyl I have some I can send you, let me know. Greeblies need to be added to your thermal detenator. Your suede crotch piece looks to be hanging off your suit, that needs to be fully sewn/attached to the suit. Get some updated pics with these corrections and we'll go from there. Good luck!

Ok, I think i have taken care of 90% of what you have asked, (sent a close up of the saddle sewn into flightsuit, the only thing i haven't found is grey vinyl tape, i am going to try one of my electrical supply houses, if not i will need to borrow yours. Anyway without further ado, here is another set of photo's(sorry about just giving you a close up of the T-bit but the one i took out side was to dark, but i will put it up here anyway. Front Back T-bit Picture showing saddle detail, and Detonator detail Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecyclone Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Much better. Still need to see a close up of the stripes on your tank. it looks as if there is a larger space between the middle of them, they should be spaced evenly. No need to "borrow" anything, PM me your address and I will send you some gray vinyl sticker asap. Command will review your request, stand by.

My apologies on the tank, i did take a photo, but forgot to put it on. I have a (2 stripe space 3 Stripe)military configuration(see photo), if you need i can put the 6th stripe in place. Again sorry for not sending the photo. Tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluecyclone Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Ok, we would like you to change the position of your belt and pouches, they are not correct. The pic below shows what I mean, the pouches should be even with the end of the chest plate, and the belt should be brought up more so that the bottom of the pouches touch or slightly overlap the top of the belt. I know you have the issue of your cummerbund being a little too long, as shown in the first pic, so you might need to get it taken in or altered. Update with new pics once this is done. Thanks.

Sigh, I think that pretty much kills it for me, I am going to have to make a brand new Vest/Cummerbund/Pouches, and that is going to take some time. Thanks for your consideration.

bluecyclone Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Robert, Please do not be discouraged, this is just part of the process. Being the first Lancer, I had to change many things and it took awhile, longer than any other Lancer after that. Contact Denise(Ladyghost) and see if she can alter your cummerbund for you.

No worries, I am not discouraged, and i have already contacted Denise(i will be seeing her at SWW). Just letting you know, it will be awhile for those repairs, as you can see by the ribbing, it would be impossible to bring in the pouches. so i am more than likely going to need to make another Cummer/vest, with shorter ribbing. and while i am at it probably another flightsuit. I am trying to build a shadow scout as well, so lots of irons in the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the summer events it slows you down, because you are in costume almost every weekend, or you out trying to enjoy summer! Thank you all again for your consideration, Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
