Looking good.
Wraps look like they need more length to them. I have leg wraps for another project and a 1.5 inch wide wrap needs 5 meters of length to give a decent cover, non slip wrap on my shins from ankle to under knee.

Looking very good indeed! I heartily encourage biceps, thighs and shins on Legacy, just because the chest plates have such a heavy feel to them.

With the straps on the chest plates, well my last main kit before I retired was Legacy, and eventually I just fused the chest and ab plates together. I didn't notice a very serious decrease in flexibility compared to having them separate, and fused together meant I didn't have to mess around with the positioning every time I put them on or moved to much.

This is coming out great so far.

Yeah, I bought a cheap pair at Dollar store. Ordered a longer pair now. Thanks for the kind words and advice

Thank you. Yeah, I went one fused chest piece with Chicago screws. Only strap is a seatbelt nylon at the shoulders that have chest and back together. I definitely eventually will be adding biceps and thigh and shin to be heavy melee since i love Samurai's.

This kit has come a really long way Vod! :)


I see a couple of paint runs on the top plate of your backplate that you might want to sand back. 
Your kama really stands out as being more weathered than the rest of the kit. 

Other than that just a couple of questions :)

Is your helmet 3d printed?

Do your gauntlets cover at least 2/3rds of the lenght of your forearm from wrist to inside of the elbow?

You're getting close!

I didn't notice the paint, thanks.

I'll definitely add more to my soft parts to match Kama. I figured Kama is what gets caught the most from being fired at and also just terrain, bushes, dirt etc. So I purposely weathered it a bit more.

Gauntlets do cover 2/3

Bucket is printed

Roger that, the extra weathering on the kama over the other parts makes sense, it's just a pretty dramatic difference.   don't start putting holes in your flight suit, but you could do some patched/repaired spots if you wanted to.  :)

The bucket's got a few places where it's still showing the printed texture.  Like the left facing pic, between the cheeks and the earcap, but it's not really all that bad.  Check with your Ruu to get their word on it.

Wow, I realize I haven't posted in forever. Still slowly trucking a long. Of course, I had a bad mishap at last AP...wind knocked over my crate on my kit and snapped shoulders in half :( So to save time, and the fact that I'm losing weight and want to be approve before I have to start over on a new kit lol, I'm using old shoulders from my first attempt at modern kit and added some TK style shoulder straps. Only thing left to do is re add the chicago screws where old shoulders were to hide the holes

Glad to see you back at it!   :)  :porg2:


Be sure to address the gap between your collar and top chest plate -- it may not be there when you kit up, just because it's on the mannekin, but just make sure there isn't a gap there when you're in kit.

Have I just missed that 3D diamond before now? That's such a cool touch, like a giant gem.

And as for the holes - use one to tie trophies too :P Totally didn't fill a mis-aligned rivet hole in my armour that way.

The important thing to keep in mind with setbacks is to not let them discourage you, which you clearly haven't. Still looks good even with the modern era shoulders.

I like your strapping system within your armor. The TK straps are a nice touch, too. Excellent work.

Thanks Vod! Glad I was able to get it in because I already need to "upgrade" soon. Down 36lbs and counting so new flight suit will be needed soon.
