Kai Dragoon:
Okay bought 2x4 sheet of 6mm sintra today and traced out my chest plates, diamond, belly, and collar. I cut out the chest plates and diamond. I used my dremel and a metal cutting wheel. Ill cut the collar and belly tomarrow. I still need to clean up the edges and all.  http://s1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg577/kaidragoon/?action=view&current=2012-03-21191730.jpg

TrooperJasher:


There is you image for ya.

Umm quick question, did you make sure that your plates were the right size? Hate to see you cut everything out, only to find out they were too small...

But it looks like a good start

Kai Dragoon:
Thank for the image i tried a bunch of times and couldnt figure it out it just gave me red x's. i cut out large ones. but i read some where on here to go with what size shirt you where. which for me is med but the pattern looked small so...

Kai Dragoon:
okay so now Im nervous as to what size plates i need. so I cut a med and lg on the white is the sintra and its the large jango and the cardboard is the med jango. Im what i consider a small guy 5'9" at 150lbs if you guys could help and tell me which is better brown or white it would be much appreciated  ;D  http://s1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg577/kaidragoon/?action=view&current=2012-03-22111806.jpg#!oZZ2QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1244.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fgg577%2Fkaidragoon%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3D2012-03-22111457.jpg   http://s1244.photobucket.com/albums/gg577/kaidragoon/?action=view&current=2012-03-22111806.jpg#!oZZ2QQcurrentZZhttp%3A%2F%2Fs1244.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fgg577%2Fkaidragoon%2F%3Faction%3Dview%26current%3D2012-03-22111457.jpg

Ref Al'drann:
Firstly, Here's how you post pictures

Here's the pics for people who don't want to click:




The medium is a better fit for you. You can easily trim your sintra plates down to that size. That being said, you'll still have to do some extra trimming on the outer edge of both chest plates as well.
Here's what I mean:


Half an inch to an inch will probably do it. trim that off of your cardboard test plates and post it up again so we can see.
