Kote Gra'tua Shock Infantry WIP

[Trengence Gra'tua]

Here is a concern I have about your WIP thread, you have the armour all painted and it looks great! I think that if you want more feedback it would be helpful to see some of the plates ON ya so we can see if the sizing and spacing looks right

[Kote Gra'tua]

Good point.  I'll duct tape up some plates on me tomorrow.

Good point.  I'll duct tape up some plates on me tomorrow.

How were you planning on Attaching them BTW ?

[Kote Gra'tua]

Heavy Duty snaps.

Your kit looks pretty good so far man.  Definently get your plates taped up on you so you can check the sizing and see if you'll have any spacing issues.  Forgive me if I missed this in a previous post, but what are you planning to use girth belt and utility belt wise? 

[Kote Gra'tua]

Belt is on page 1.

[Dresdon Rayne]

Duh, lol.  No idea how I missed that, lol.  How about a girth belt? 

[Kote Gra'tua]

Do I need one?

[Thaxos]

Do I need one?

Depends on how all the armor sits, but it tends to help fill the gap if you've got some empty space between the bottom of the ab plate and the belt line.

OK here's the first test fit using duct tape.



BTW I need to remember to remove my gun before I put on my vest.  It's a little snug.

Well, since your using duct tape, the obvious straightening issues can be ignored as long as you promise to make sure you attach them right when you go permenent 

The sizing looks pretty much bang-on. Good job Vod! 

[ConDar Ward]

^ Move it all up  ^  1/4 " - 1/2 "   ?

But as far as Duct tape goes , it can sag that much ...... so forget I mentioned it .... 



The Colors , Size , Shape , fit perfect ....... 


This is going to be 1 Kick Sheebs Kit ...... I'd wear it .....

Lookin good, lookin good.

The plate size looks good.  The paint job looks kandosii!  Most folks that use snaps also use velcro to help keep the plates in place.

Just a little food for thought.

Lookin good with the sizing so far Vod!
