Seems like you off to a solid start. I will be keeping a weather eye on your thread in case you need any help or advice to steer clear of any pitfalls on the road to approval :D

Nice air tank!

With the boots I would suggest making the wrapping appear to go all the way around the toe of the boot as the bit of fabric you have bordering the front of the boot looks a bit rough compared to the other wrapping on the boot and when going for this sort of look you really want to give the illusion that the whole boot is wrapped.

Keep up the work!

Looks good so far, if you get a chance some close up pictures of your plates would be helpful. Just helps to get a idea if they "organic" enough in terms of the paint or if they need to be dialed up.

I thought that's what it looked like...just didn't know what you used in the middle. I used the same pieces on my kit. Looking forward to seeing more of this one!  :)
