Pic lost blaster so far , not my sofa lol still to be added , weathering ,sling and sling loops

Thats a nasty experience that ,bloody hell. Glad it was all sorted.\ The fact they are a bit loose is better than I think. Given our weather I can always wear thicker socks and the insoles seem really comfy. Still waiting on an armourer on ISG ( ahem @SirCalcium 😉 ) but theres no rush. blasters are off to get built ,painted and finished by a guy I know whos a puperb propmaker and the jacket and trousers will be measured and sorted in the new year so im hoping to be out and about after easter.

So just waiting on armour from Walt but no rush. costume will be measured and made in new year. nearly there

Boots arrived from Crowprops yesterday. Ordered oct 10th. Shipped via DHL Express and straight through customs 🙂

Power 5 holster arrived from Darman Props. Quality is epic but need to soften it up a bit. Will get better pic , this was taken in my works underground parking lol

Belt and boxes areives today from Bailey Build Designs Quality is epic

Gloves arrived The Dents " Daniel " style

Code Disk for Cap and belt Hooks are here Hooks to be painted

It is what it is eh. All the stuff from Etsy will be here months end and the armour by year end. Boots and soft goods will be next year but with it being properly tailored jacket and trousers its worth the cost to get the test fits etc Will be worth it

WIP up in ISG buddy

Montana Gold Paint ordered from Fat Buddha in the UK Anthracite Shock Black Shock White Plastic Primer

Added ordered goods to Initial post Soft Goods material back in stock , deposit to seamstress to be sent when paid end of month Gloves to be ordered and also sling webbing and sling tri-glider

WTF has pulled the trigger on mad sale so ordering the armour tonight / tomorrow my time TBH at that price it was daft not to

Some one in my garrison bought scout boots off him so I was gonna see exactly what he did to get his into the UK successfully

Forgot about this sorry. Going through the messages again think they would do if they got a chance to catch up and take the time to make up the patterns etc but never really got s definite answer sadly. In the end I decided to go with a local seamstress who's also in the RL and advantage of that is proper measurements and test fittings etc So given that and my side of the pond I wont be going with DSC They seemed ken but it would probably be better if someone stateside took the first jump tbh boss

Just seen it go live. congrats all involved!!

Checked with my GML and he seems to think the mudtrooper ones crow props sell will do

Progress very slow and life has been getting in the way but still working towards this

its been a pretty horrific time of late so plenty of things were on hold. Decided to go ahead with the V1 for now and can always sort the armour out later. Will be re printing some rifle bits and sorting the pistol out ( paint prep ) as I gotta do the rifle and pistol for extra cool

Been doing any measurements / sizing on top of a very thick hoodie

Decided to have a go at printing the armour , bells and biceps were measured and then scale checked. Rest of the armour pieces then scaled to suit. Why not try it , the absolute worst I have to do if that doesn't work is buy the WTF which after many chats I know will fit. Should be good as my scout is not an issue and that has a similar ( ish ) clamshell. Just doing the front pieces for now to see if worth pursuing

One thing springs to mind as we know I have bit of a belly at the moment. the top of the chest /back armour will be fine as the straps /webbing are easy to sort length wise.. Given the side section and the swoops I think it might be possible to extend / add a section to make the side join longer providing it meets the style of the ref pics?

Spent a lot of time speaking to Walt about his stuff and hes seen pics and has measurements. We reckon it should be okay but at least can get the version 1 sorted If nothing else.. The scout was no issues with that armour and the bells are bigger on the IAT so will see , theres no rush and I am trying to lose weight so it'll be fun

Hey buddy , you able to get the bicep measurement?
