TK cod piece mod

[Wesboehlke]

Hi all, looking for advice on the TK cod piece armor mod you see all over the newer shows (Mando, Rouge 1 etc etc) where its cut across left to right, typically under the belt to hide it and re attached with elastic i assume.  What this does is allow for the bottom piece to bend freely and, if you can even imagine, allow the Trooper to actually SIT and BEND!  Ive seen it in person and it looks like a great idea, apparently theirs a tutorial on here somehere but alas, i couldnt find it.   Even with the Force....

What armor build are you going for?

 

The R1 armor is completely different than the OT and I have not seen the cod separated even though the CRL doesn't specifically say that it can't be.

oh ya, totally agree they're not the same kit at all; just using it as a reference.  My armors already built as an ESB TK, came raw from RS Props.  Was just curious about this mod as a way to make it tolerable to sit in

Very few actually cut the cod, we are just used to not sitting (or awkward sitting and not getting up), but if you did do the mod you would have to hide the cut line behind the belt, adding snaps and elastic like another other part of the armor would be the way to go.
