Visor re-installed!  ;D





Admittedly nerve-wracking, but everything went off without too much of a hitch. I took special care when securing it into the helmet, so that I wouldn't have a repeat of my last visor tint crinkling up.

There are still a few things that need to be touched up though:



I need to weather around the cracks where the fangs got moved during the re-installation.



I filled in some of the gaps with epoxy, but these areas will be receiving some touchups as well to help them blend in



Next up is making sure both shnees are up to snuff for the upcoming photo-shoot and convention!

Finally got around to trimming my backplate up a bit. The lower portion was hanging off my vest and interfering with my belt, so it was time for some of it to go!







Still needs a bit of touch-up weathering, but it looks good enough so far. Here's hoping I'll be able to bend around better in kit!

Thanks boss! I really need to look into making a cast of them, I feel like they would sell pretty well... maybe some day!

Minor update, but I plan on redoing my kama before to long, as I feel it's a bit too much black in a primarily red/gray kit. Here's a shot of the fabric I'm looking at replacing it with:



For some reason my phone automatically brightened every image I took in that store,  the red is a bit darker in real life, and looks much nicer. Thoughts?

This makes no sense but I see you as my south FL doppelganger. We started about the same time, but that's not it. We both have our core 'squad' too, but IDK. I dig it man, I see a lot of my passion in you. You do a great job, brother.

I totally see it. There's a lot of aesthetic and functional similarities to our kits, and I think we'd make an awesome 'in-universe' tag-team. I have a lot of respect for you, your kit, and your crew vod, and I can't wait to troop with you one day.

That's definitely it. Sword/pistol buddies!

LOVE.THIS.BUILD!

Thanks boss! Looking into upgrading my attachment method though, I'm never satisfied with how well my plates stay on me. But then again, I tend to make some really weird movements, so I'm partially to blame here to.
