All right, time for pics!
First, the armor:
I have trimmed the chest en back plate, shortened their shoulder parts to make them accurate, and modified the sides a little bit:
For the back plate I will probably drill out the circular indentation under the right shoulder, and make a new elliptical hole under the left shoulder.
Next up for these two is the attachment of the shoulder straps. I see a lot of people affixing their shoulder straps with Chicago screws. I want to be able to seperate my back plate from the chest plate for transportation, so I will affix the shoulder straps on the chest with the screws, but do something magnetic for the back. But first some more sanding of the wedge connectors.
The scout belt hard parts are also done for the most part:
The detonator is also done for the most part, just need to paint the tubes and affix the closing caps
My chest rig and MP-40 pouch have been lying in wait for almost a year now, finally time to start modding the chest rig!
Inspired by Maxime's build (here) I will also be modifying the strapping on the rig. I'm going to replace all the strapping with leather, and also go for a three layered leather approach the the shoulder straps. Way more accurate than what is currently described in the CRL.
Unfortunately my kit did not include aluminum greeblies for the helmet and chestbox. I don't want to paint resin greeblies, I prefer the real aluminum look. So the first order of aluminum greeblies also arrived this week, with the other chestbox greeblies on the way.
The coming weeks I'll just keep working on it, hope to be finished by the end of May.
