[Pauldron too flat?]

So I got most of my strapping done today, and decided to try on my fine Trooper1 pauldron. However, it appears a bit flat.

I then tried tucking the elastic into the inner bicep hook, and it looks like this:

It looks better, but I don't think it's curved enough, and the elastic sticks out a lot in the back. Do I need to trim down the elastic a bit, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks, I'll check it out. They're pre-weathered!

[Removing writing from Enfield Straps]

I haven't purchased them yet. I'm curious if the writing can be removed or if I should look elsewhere.

So I'm looking to finish up my T-21 and one of the things I need is the straps. Someone here recommended these: http://www.ima-usa.com/original-post-wwii-dated-british-enfield-web-khaki-sling-with-brass-fittings.html?p=2

Yet they're covered in writing. Is there any way to remove it?

[ANOVOS armor]

I'm curious about their sandy offering. I'm on the waiting list for ATA right now, but this seems like a pretty good deal too.

Hi, I'm from Southern California. I've seen the 501st pop up in the news from time to time, and recently decided to take the plunge. I like the Sandtrooper armor the best, so here I am. I'm on the waiting list for ATA so I'm going to start putting together accessories while I wait.
