How much and where do you cut on the rubber suit?

Just got my set in today. Here are some quick shots. Loving the Stealth Cap, with no issues on mine so far. I don't have pics of the Rogers fig though, as I'm pretty sure I'm going to sell him, and don't want to take him out of the box. Great fig, but I want to sell him to get Falcon.
A quick (read: terrible) shot of my two secret avengers. These guys look bad ass together.
Gave the blue under suit some quick cuts,but other than that rogers is stock.

This looks good enough to be a digital still of the movie. The only thing that may be missing is the Captain America soundtrack music that is playing in my head right now

Today I added two rubberbands to the midsection of Cap. I did not cut the fat suit or anything else. To me, he doesn't look a lot different, what steps am I missing? I'm trying to find the old post about the mod, but haven't come across it yet.
I tried the rubberbands also but I didn't make any noticeable difference. I think to really notice something a body swap or sculpting is required.

It's weathering. Put there on purpose.

What mods did you perform? It looks GREAT.
Any pics anyone have of where and how much to cut the blue rubber suit?
Also does anyone want to paint my Gloves,belt and boots to look more weathered?
The fact that its so consistent between figures seems to point that way, but it really does just look like a paint rub. Doesn't look very good. Definitely, not their most convincing weathering.
I'm guessing it is on purpose as well, because the 2nd helmet...for cap to hold while using the Rogers head on the cap body has the same mark on the exact same spot.
Just pop the large strap up over his gauntlet. It will sit tight there.

Yeah tried that. Problem is the glove hand is too open and doesn't really grip the smaller strap so it starts to slide down. I'm thinking of swapping out the gloves for another pair that has an actual gripping hand and more flared out wrists that will cover the lower arms of the suit better will help. Jeez this figure has so many issues.
