Flight suit. Pics taken in morning with sun up but in shade

Have not weathered. Need to know if color is ok or to dye to get the purple hue or is it ok as is?

Good progress!

The weathering on the chest and knees may be a bit more than what we have seen - might try to lighten that up a hair.

on the flight suit - dont forget to add a little PURPLE weathering - where did you get yours?

Thanks!! I can lessen the weathering on the knees and chest. Looking at the pictures, especially the knees I was like…yikes. As for flightsuit GWABO. Is there a purple dye, fabric spray paint that others have used? Thanks!!

I would recommend either airbrushing some purple otherwise you can do a wet on wet application. Wet down the fabric a little, then dilute some purple in water - put it in a squirt bottle and spray lightly. When dry you should see some light purple hues come out

Raquel mentioned the left thigh earlier. I also think it should be a bigger size.

Great job so far!

Thanks!! I will get a larger plate. How does the color look on neck seal? Continue with that shade? It seems a little to purple but I am not sure.

I think the purple is a little heavy, but that can be washed out. Go about half as much for the next try and you'll.havr it nailed.

The jet pack is wrong and will not be used but I wanted to wear it to get a feel overall. The butt plate is new and 12 inches in length as prior photos in wip show. Also in process of making larger left thigh. Was able to use some purple fabric paint as shown in prior wip pics. Did a quick dye and dry. Also “action” pics to show movement. I think the butt plate is right size. I feel the misaligned jet pack and jetpack being to small throw off the rear pics view.
I also tried to reduce weathering on knees.
Any feedback is requested.
