I had someone help me for the collar to get that lined up so that part looks good. Going to have it re adjusted if needed once I get the vest. as well as the chest plates and abdomen
The shin and thighs I'll re-adjust once I get a flight suit

Great to see you got the pictures to work for you here on the forums! I was super impressed with all the progress you made at the armor party!

Next step is definitely to see it on you. I look forward to more!  :porg2:

Looking good!

We'll need some trimming so your lower plates don't touch and your cod needs some more shaping so it doesn't look so flat. Also note that the girthbelt/sash is required to cover the top of the cod :)

Great progress!

What a progress. Are you going to blackwash the kit a little bit?
The cap + holster in there look nice, but isn't it a little bit unpractical for you to get to them? Or is there still some room to be able to get your weapons out asap when you need to shoot a rouge Rebel?;)

Dac'Gar Ordo honestly I wasnt thinking about doing that but seems like a good idea. There is plenty of room and the fabric is easily movable without issues. Gotta keep the slight of hand.
Tao Regulus I sadly wont be back, still have a few more months up north. Thank you! And we'll meet when I get back!
Cowboy_Ken thank you and sounds good once I get back!

Looking good! I like the holster setup, it is definitely a novel idea. Don't forget that your soft parts weathering should match the weathering of your armor. A little black wash will make your plates pop as well. Can't wait until you get back home, but we commend you on your service. You make the Aiwha Riders proud!

I'm still doing some adjusting for the diamond, as well as i still need to repaint everything, including the screws. the last thing ill have to attach is going to be the cape. Best part about this, almost done

It’s coming together now!

Looks like your right shoulder is rotated a little further back than the left, but it also might be the way you’re standing, easy fix if it’s the first one :)

Please excuse my helmet hair, it looked better before i put the bucket on  ;D
Here are the pictures that were put in for my preapp
since the picture was taken, my flight suit has been tailored so its not as baggy, my vest has been resized, I had to borrow a belt and gloves (left mine at home that day)
When i get off work i will be saving a half an inch off the top of my thighs and a littile off the bottom as well as bending the cod

So to start off I had some adjusting to do
First was the hand guards

Next was the Cod plate

I had to re-do my shoulder bells (don't have an updated picture)

As well as my shins and guantlets (which I just finished)


And to top it all off I added a belt with pouches

Looking good, vod! One thing I will note is that I would recommend trimming the thigh plates to minimize crowding between the thighs and cod/knees.
Getting close!

Looking good! Forewarning, I can see a lace and some eyelets showing on your boots. I recommend getting those fully covered before you submit your application.

Kol Var'Das the eyelets and the strings that are hanging out and visible are part of the boot itself.  They are wrapped around the ankle and spiral all the way up the boot, similar to the renaissance era boot
