Knee pack! Do I trim to make it flat? No return edge?

Wait a minute - that’s not the knee plate, is it? It should have only 5 packs...

It looks like the waist belt for your kit. Also  noticed the scale between it and the JB Weld in the bottom corner of your photo :)

Armor is finally coming together! More strapping, sides to deal with, and add my ab buttons.

You dont have to glue it, just use the two rivets on each side.

Looks excellent.  Aiming high is definitely the way to go.  I made that mistake of just aiming for basic and having to redo things that would've been easier from the get go.  Keep up the great work!

A couple more photos...finally coming together! Need to make some more snaps, will probably trim up a few to make them look nicer. Thoughts!?!

Great job!

 

You can cut off the big rear tabs on the shoulder bridges if they are too long for you, I did my bridges 2" longer than the original to accomodate larger bodies, the movie original didn't have big tabs on the back.
