wozza8470 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Hi guys, just wanted to get people's opinion on my weathering as this is the first time I've tried to do it.All comments welcome Cheers Warren Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deckard1138 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Warren,I think that looks pretty good. The only area that I'd remove some weathering on is the area above the eyes and below the brow trim. My eyes tend to want to focus there. Other than that it looks cool. That's just my personal opinion. How does it look when it's together with the rest of the armor? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozza8470 Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 It doesn't look to bad against the rest of the armour that I've weathered albeit I've only done the chest piece and one arm so far. But I see what you mean regarding under the brow and around the eyes, the top of the helmet is weathered it just hasn't shown up very well with the lights but I'll rectify the brow areaCheersSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne Trooper Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Looks like you're replicating the "Move Along" Captain with the way the brow has been set. If that's the case, just review the SWAT threads and try to mimic. If you're just doing your own thing, I'd say you're off to a great start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveMonkey Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 All in all it looks pretty good. Are you going for PO or SWAT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozza8470 Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Police officer, I don't think I'm clever enough to go for SWAT.Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveMonkey Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Don't sell yourself short, you can do it if you really try.That being said, I would think it would be good for PO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozza8470 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Cheers, really appreciate the feedback. After looking at my pics I really need to raise the thighs and do something to keep the top of the shins closed as I don't think the Velcro is working very well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airborne Trooper Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Looking good! Only thing I would suggest is shortening the bee stinger a bit and maybe inserting a small wooden dowel to keep it straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airborne Trooper Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Should be fine for basic! Might I suggest you lower the belt a tad: the plastic portion should be flush with the bottom of the ab's center rectangle and the canvas portion should cover the gap between kidney and butt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozza8470 Posted June 8, 2017 Author Share Posted June 8, 2017 Have lowered the belt a fraction. What does everyone mean when they say it should be OK for basic? What do I need to do for police officer? Sorry if this is a dumb question. Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
