Thanks guys, got most of it done today, as well as a sunburn! I will have to look at how it all flow together to see now I want to modify it. I figure it will be complete in 2 weeks. I will keep you posted.
Ok all,
I have been slaving away on this project for the trip to Tunisia.
I have gotten the armor 80% assembled.
Started weathering the Helmet today. Here it is so far.
Sorry a couple are a little blurry.
So, i am trying to get everything assembled for Tunisia, but i cannot figure out how in the name of Zeus's butthole to get the pouches on the left shoulder.
Can anyone help me out?
Progress update:
I got the legs assembled with velcro, looks like it is going to be a snug fit.
They breakdown very nicely and should not have too much trouble fitting them in to the 28" Samsonite Hard case for the journey.
Only thing that might be a problem is the plastic flexing and creating a slight splitting of the seam in the front of the thighs.
Next is getting the ab/butt and chest/back together.
Still have to figure out how I want to hold the knee-plates on I was thinking about snaps instead of the velcro due to the flexing of the plastic.
Hey All,
I am not sure of any of you caught my first post looking for armor for a TD project to take with me to Tunisia this May. I am nearly complete with the initial armor and just require some fitting things left. I will be using the techniques I have learned to weather clones and am looking forward to completion. I may need a bit of guidance as I am not (for this trip) including a Field Pack due to the size ability to travel to Africa with it. I will post pictures as soon as it is fitted.
