It's hard to believe I headed down this rabbit hole over three years ago. Here we are, finally submitted for approval - 3 years, 4 different FOTK suits owned(/sold), from 4 different armor makers, parts from over a dozen vendors, a new house and workshop, and a new baby along the way since I've started.

 

 Thanks for looking!

Looking awesome mate, I'd be amazed if this didn't pass a GML review.

Nice work, should be an easy walk through

Wonderful! :icon_bow:

If you've pissed your GML team off before, they're gonna make you shoot on a different background. :rolleyes: Your suit looks amazing, but the black pieces blend into the flags. 

 

Seriously though, looking good sir. :jc_doublethumbup:

If I could suggest a couple of things you could tweak for EI, (or disregard, after all I'm no DO).

 

You could centralise your thighs at the knees, I had similar issues when using fabric gaskets, I finally ended up adding a stiffening piece of foam inside the gaskets which takes up the slack and keeps thighs and shins better aligned. Even a small block of foam on the outer sides of the thighs would pull them over.

You can see on the rear image how the thighs pull the fabric gaskets to the insides.

Not sure if you can reduce the circumference of your spats as there is an opening on the rear and you can see the grooves.

I know the DO's have mentioned wrinkling around the shorts on an EI application previously. Also you could adjust forearm to glove spacing to match.

I also noticed the angle of you posterior, front corners appear to be under the belt and pushing the belt upwards at the back

A quick view let us say , and apart of the fit details noted by Glen, everything looks good for EIB, but consider that the EIB applications request for additional and more detailed  photos .

 

keep it up. :salute:
