Cover Strips Extending to Bottom of Thighs?

[Darknoize]

For the thigh armor, can I extend the cover strip length to cover the bottom inch or so, over that little hump? My cuts ended up being sloppy and I dislike the visible seam of the butt joint. I have an ATA Shadowtrooper.

You could and hope the GML doesn't pick up on it, but that wouldn't be accurate and would hamper you going EIB and Centurion. How bad can it look? Posting a picture could show us.

You could always trim a scoop out of that area. Entirely screen-accurate

Like this or maybe not so severe...

My Bad! I instantly thought front. The scoop is totally screen accurate.

Hmm, you could be right I'd assumed rear!

Here is a pic of the 3 seams, 2 front and the back of one. Does a TX need to follow the rules of a TK? Would just putting black abs behind the gap be enough of a fix?

Yes it's the same rules for both. It's not that bad since one thigh gets ammo pack and back can be crescent cut. Leaving one. Which you could undo innerstrip and close more or live with it. You are wearing a black undersuit anyway. It would be hard to notice.

I forgot about the ammo pack lol. Cool, thank you all for your input everyone. I will just pull the inner strip and retry. I may need to shave 1mm off the strip, but I don't think it will be noticeable.

Make a little strip to join the back of the raised portion and then make some ABS paste from your scraps and fill any remaining gaps from the back. If you really need to, put some ABS paste on the front, too....
