gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted May 25, 2022 Report Posted May 25, 2022 Shame the lower shin decals don't fill the whole area, the decals probably right sized just the recessed area too long Reference 1 Quote

They are Anovos decals and my kit is BSP which they obviously made the recessed oval too large on the armor. I could always use some gaffer tape and cut to size but don't want the black oval to be too large. I'll go with this for now and see what happens. 1 Quote
DocDan[TK] Posted May 28, 2022 Author Report Posted May 28, 2022 (edited) The shin decals were really bothering me! I took some time and made a small template and used some gaffers tape in place of black vinyl. Hopefully they look a bit better as they now fill that recessed area a lot better!

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted May 28, 2022 Report Posted May 28, 2022 Definitely worth the fix, looks muuuuuuuuuuuch better 1 Quote
DocDan[TK] Posted May 30, 2022 Author Report Posted May 30, 2022 I'm on the home stretch! Getting the final clips on the shins and thighs. 1 Quote
DocDan[TK] Posted June 10, 2022 Author Report Posted June 10, 2022 Decided to powder coat my thigh holster bracket. It will hold up better than paint and clear coat Missing some screws but working on that 1 Quote
DocDan[TK] Posted July 4, 2022 Author Report Posted July 4, 2022 Hey all. I finally got some time to take my submission photos yesterday! The day has arrived...Sent them to my GML team last night. Fingers crossed! 2 Quote
TKSpartan[Staff] Posted July 4, 2022 Report Posted July 4, 2022 Awesome Daniel!! You did an excellent work. Easy pass . Looking forward for your TK ID 1 Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted July 4, 2022 Report Posted July 4, 2022 Looking good, a couple of things you may need to adjust that your GML may require Side closer not quite straight. Also there is a big gap from you the bottom of your TD to the armor. Biceps could be rotated, clips at front Good luck with approval, hope to see you with a TKID soon 1 Quote

Yeah the biceps have to be adjusted for sure. Will make sure I make sure they are in line next time I push them up and attach them to the Velcro on the bells (my wife helped attach those for me) The TD, yes, I had forgotten to place the double thickness Velcro after painting on there to keep it attached to the ab section. I have since added it and it will keep it down now. The right chest plate side wing, I agree and will make sure I get that straight next time. 2 Quote

DocDan[TK] Posted July 13, 2022 Author Report Posted July 13, 2022 Hi team. I’m in! There are a few things I want to take care of to make it better. I’m adding white felt to the back of the belt boxes so they don’t rub off the paint on my right thigh. Same with the insides of my shoulder bells on my biceps. I also want to get a better spat set up. Also currently working on the heavy F11D, pistol and shield. 3 Quote
