Hi Alex and welcome to the dirty side.

I really like your weathering,  looks great.

At a first glance I would recommend shortening the inside strapping from the chest to the abdomen, the abdomen should sit a little higher up inside the chest.

I think your armor suits you well but the thighs should be more tapered towards the knee to follow the natural shape of your leg. 

Cheers mate and have fun browsing the MEPD forum, heaps of great info to be found here.

Hello Alex,
As I already mentioned:

- fix the right shoulder bell
- Abdomen higher
- Belt higher and fix it
- Tighter at the bottom of the thighs

- shorten the Mortar Tube

- for a better look, change the shoulder Pouch against a canvas pouch and the left Pouch of the Hip against an accurate one.

 

Regards, Thomas

- Belt higher and fix it -> definitely ! will fix it today 
- Tighter at the bottom of the thighs -> on it will try to fix it today too 

- shorten the Mortar Tube -> ok does it need to be flush with the top part of the backpack frame ?

Hi Guys 

 

I hope you are fine and well ? 

 

quick update : waiting for the mp40 pouch to come (the good one in can vas for lvl2 police officer), I did the changes on the legs, reviewed the back pack (with the precious support and advises of Thomas/bigwan (I will have a trooping this weekend and will come back asap maybe on Sunday)

Also I've been deployed !! TD24079 report for duty  and requesting access (if there is one to request) to the merchant/store part

 

thanks 

best
