Sounds pretty wham, that title, not? But I just started my first custom one and it freaks the hell outta me. Because I'm very exact on details but I have no clue on how to handle any tool to get to the point. So I started to do the biker scout trooper, whatever you may like to call it, by buying a Hasbro one with a speeder bike (don't let the lady read that, it's still hidden under the roof!). After receiving a great little package from Snow (thak you for all the hints and dos and don'ts!), I started by putting on the arm armour. I sewed the little straps much tighter (near to impossible to get so gloves, I had to remove those) so they won't move around. Now here are some pics what I did to make the chest and back armour fitting tighter:
Cutting off the long strap and using them as help for an additional hole:
Additional hole made with a carpetknife, doesn't have to look like manufactured because insert is very big:
See how tight is fits now?
Still waiting for my Tomy helmet, somewhere in the mail ...
