Starting to look at this again. It looks like there is a web style belt crossing the cummerbund area. The textured ribbing appears to be the webbing verticle. Whwn I finish with my current obligations I will do a test run on my theory of construction. I am eager to see the BARC completed before C4. By Dragoncon at the very latest. So this is an urging to keep up the good folks. Mike your sculpt and 1st run on the chest armor is phenominal.

I agree, there is clearly a garrison belt around the belly holding up the larger pouches as can be seen here. The smaller pouches are not.

Also a smaller waist belt below.

I have a friend of mine that knows a lot more about dyes and materials. I'm working with her over the weekend to figure out a better method for approaching the vest. We're going to attempt different dyes on what I have so far and see if the dyes take to different materials while we're at it. :-)

 

There's also fabric paint, and I have access to my old airbrush for putting a camouflage pattern down.

 

The goal here is to make this look as close as possible to the original. Hopefully I'll have photos soon.
