netslave Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I am working on fitting the armor I just purchased, and the codpiece is separate from the Ab Plate. I've added straps/snaps to secure it, but I haven't fitted the belt yet, and I'm curious how people handle this. I can edge the belt down over the seam where the cod/ab meet, but I'm afraid it'll look too low. From what I can tell, the bottom of the belt should basically be right on the seam, which means the seam between the Cod and Ab may show. I'd like to avoid adding more plastic to the cod, or permanently attaching it to the Ab Plate (I like the bit of extra movement it gives while separate pieces). How do y'all handle that type of situation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIVE Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The belt is "low" in the front on many sandtroopers. So you should be able to angle it so it's hiding the seam but still higher on the edges and back — that's how the "Stop that Ship" trooper (which I have) is done. Photos would help, but I'm betting that will work for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netslave Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Cool, I'll post some pics when I get home, but that leaves me hopeful for now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netslave Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 Here's the armor I'm working on. I'm sure I'll be fine. I test fitted it to me tonight and it seems like it'll work. Just maybe needs something to secure the codpiece from moving under the belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
