REQUESTING HELP FOR FITMENT ANH ARMOR

[TK71169[501st]]

Hello,TKs! Finally getting closer...only thing stopping me is fitment. 1st time using imgur, so hopefully the photos are there: http://imgur.com/gallery/Yhw9Yx4

 

As of now, I'm wanting to start with the lower half. Most notably the thighs and bate plate...

 

But plate sticks out, and I feel that the thighs are too high on me and wide. What do you think? How can I fix this, so I can not only look accurate, but also be quite mobile in armor, too, without armor pinches and rubs.

 

Height: 5'6ish / 7 

Weight: 145/50

 

Assuming I need to make trims on top of the thighs, reposition straps (kidney, back plate, and thighs), and perhaps thin the thighs, so they are more fitted and to prevent the butt plate and thighs interfering. My guess. Anyway, let me know what I should do. I would eventually like to submit for level 3. Keep that in mind. Thanks all in advance (:

Moved to hard armor general discussion, as the tech support forum is for forum software issues, not armor issues.

I've added your images to the post, you may receive more feedback  

 

It is very difficult to take images of yourself as stretching can make pieces shift.

 

Good to see you had someone else take some photos.

 

Looks like your kidney is too low on the sides, should meet with the top of the ab on the sides, this could be because your backplate is pushing it downwards, you may want to see if you can bring the backplate up at your neck/shoulders, if not you may have to reduce the height of your backplate. Thighs are too long, they are overlapping the butt plate, you may have to do a little trimming there, height can be an issue with some armor fitment, here are a few great threads for building to a smaller height

You can also see your armor at the elbows are touching. Left rear shin does not look closed, shoulder straps sticking up, may need a hot water bath to bend them down, thighs touching

Hi JC,

 

I had the same problem. Ended up trimming off the top of the thighs and reducing all around the bottom and sides of the butt piece. Check out my thread, I have a whole section dedicated to this issue. Also, if you can, I suggest slightly reducing the diameter of your thighs, they look a little big, not huge, just a little. I'm 5'-5" about 140 lbs. so a similar size.
