The recessed/raised lines do not extend all the way to the bottom The inside line of the trapezoid matches the angle of the buckle On the back there is a raised trapezoidal section that starts at the base of the back and extends towards the left shoulder. There is a small recessed rectangle directly about the top of the trapezoid and is black. The top of the Trapezoid is the same width as the bottom of the recessed trapezoid under the top left shoulder. The angle of the top of the this trapezoid is parallel to the bottom of the recessed trapezoid at the base of the left buckle. The raised section gets higher towards the top and arches out slightly from the wearer’s back. Cuirass Chest 3 vertical oblong recesses near the collar on each side of the chest near the centre opening The chest extends over the shoulder towards the back forming the shoulder straps which have an attached trapezoidal buckle that appears to connect to the trapezoidal buckles on the upper back armour. There are recessed lines extending diagonally out from the back collar to the shoulder, these lines intersect a few recessed lines deep with the vertical horizontal lines on the front. Raised smooth/flat section at front extends around the under arm of the wearer towards back. Starts as rectangular and tapers to match shoulder/arm hole There are two raised panels on the lower section of the chest, each extends under the arms towards and forms the lowest part of the sides. Each panel has the appearance of a separate piece and there is a recess that runs around the outside edge Left lower panel has one recessed diagonal channel Right lower panel has a small rectangular box/raised area with at least 12 evenly spaced, vertical and slightly angled recessed lines, the bottom of the box/raised area extends slightly outwards from the wearer.

There are a number of vertically diagonal, evenly spaced recessed lines that start approximately halfway under the armhole and extend back to and underlap the Cuirass back. The recessed lines match the diagonal shape of the back armour. Both chest sides connect to the lower back armour The centre section of the chest has the appearance of being a separate piece that has rectangular and horizontal recesses in lower section, vertical recesses in upper section and a small rectangular recess near the top Gorget (Collar) - One piece that goes under the cuirass to form the neckline of the armour Finished in a high gloss deep red that matches the colors of the entire costume Sits flat around the neckline Sits under the cuirass (or chest/back) and fits closely to the Neck Seal and appears to be part of the cuirass If there is a seam, it is as unnoticeable as possible and shall be securely closed with no visible overlaps or gap present There are 3 visible steps forming rings around the neckline, ascending from the neckline to the cuirass or chest/back.

The centre section of the chest has the appearance of being a separate piece that has 12 rectangular and horizontal recesses in lower section, 5 vertical recesses in upper section and a small rectangular recess near the top

Thanks mate I think you're absolutely right. Based on that last square in the bottom right corner, the way it has been "joined" is slightly off:

I have not been able to find any separation between the chest and back. The shoulder seems to morph from the chest into that termination block at the back. I also cannot find a decent enough pic to confirm the separation between the termination block and the back.

So we are saying that the Chest/Back armor is comprised of 3 components: Poncho, Center-Chest Plate and a Back/Yoke? If this is the case then maybe the CRL should be written with the Chest/Back as one section that can easily be divided into L1 - L3, I would expect that this level of detail will be L2/L3

Based on what you're saying @gmrhodes13 and what I can see here is my closest representation of the chest/back armor with the poncho The green represents the "poncho" and the blue represents the outer armor. Judging by what I can see the outer armor is one piece that sits over the top of the "poncho" to give the appearance of one piece then overlaps and closes at the back (solid blue). The irregularities that you are seeing around the neck are probably due to the way they were fitted or difference in actor body shape around the shoulders.

This was one of the reasons I was holding off on the chest and back CRL, it appears that that the chest and back are one piece joined at the back, however they are two layers with the "poncho". That top left picture is very telling! On the side show toy there is a small seam, but on the real world suits there is none. Did you notice the little ledge on the abdomen towards the back to keep the belt aligned?

I saw that in the FOTK and wondered about why you would considering they are different boots. One has a heel and the other does not. It’s up for debate, however it could be an opportunity to “fix” it? For me personally, I think it should be what’s on screen or display.

This section is now pending agreement. Once agreement has been reached then I will add this to the main CRL text. Boots & boot armor Boots: FO style boot finished in a gloss or semi-gloss red that closely resembles the armor Sole is black rubber with no visible heel No visible buckles or laces Boot Armour finished in a high gloss deep red that matches the colors of the entire costume Fixed to the top of the boot and sits under the spats divided into 3 sections that the top front section has a number recessed lines running vertically as shown the outer section has diagonal lines running parallel to the edge of the armour as shown the inner panel is smooth/flat and has no recessed lines the front panel is of equal width to and lines up with the front section of the shin OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): The boot color and gloss shall match the armour Top front section of the armor has approx 10 recessed lines Outer section of the armour has at least 14 visible recessed lines Rectangular section on the toe and the heel of the boot that is knurled Stitching at the top of the sole runs the entire diameter of the boot There is a seam down both sides of the front that swoops out to the side of the foot There is a vertical zipper on the inside that spans the height of the boot.

I have to say I am really interested in the back/chest armour. There are a couple of things that stood out for me. First is that there are overlaps where the back overlaps the sides: Then there was a couple of things that @gmrhodes13 pointed out in the videos where it appears that there are two layers to the chest/back: Above I have tried to illustrate the point he was making by highlight the front and back of the chest/back armour. It's kind of like a poncho idea that was used with the Deathrooper except that it forms part of the armour. I am thinking that the chest and back are the same piece but with two layers. What does everyone else think?

I am in a agreement there
