The angle in the corners is 90 degree, not 45. 2. A half of an inch is nearly 13mm. If that is so and the angle is square, the measurement on top of the belt is also 13mm and not 10mm. I know the same picture in inch measuements and there the figuring is wright. Greetings Wolfgang The image was posted as an approximate guide, to show the knee ammo strip. But in regards to the belt, from the CRL L3: The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt. Quote
The Snake[TK] Posted October 31, 2018 Author Report Posted October 31, 2018 Managed to get okay-looking circles on my ab buttons but the paint is so runny, it all turned into blobs. If anybody has any cool tips on painting these as perfect circles, I'd love to hear them! Considering buying a template from Trooperbay. 1 Quote
LTM[TK] Posted October 31, 2018 Report Posted October 31, 2018 Template from trooperbay is what I used and happy with the outcome Quote
The Snake[TK] Posted November 5, 2018 Author Report Posted November 5, 2018 (edited) A senior garrison member, who had a heat gun and the proper rivets for the ammo pack, came over and helped me finish that off. He suggested that I switch to the AM belt. I understand that this is a controversial belt, especially as it doesn't qualify for Centurion, but I'm going with his suggestion until I get a replacement Centurion-level belt (you'll recall my last one needed some ABS patching). Pictures turned out great, but I didn't realize my belt that holds my thighs was drooping on one side until I was out of the suit. D'oh! Should be ready to submit my photos tonight, and I'm meeting the GML in person this weekend Edited November 5, 2018 by The Snake Quote
