I crafted my own belt!
*BOO YA*

If you want to save some bucks for plating or a super fly under suit... you might skimp on the belt - for now. I did. G&M one day, I hope, but for now. I have my own creation and it was fun to do as well. :D

Yea, I may do that for the belt. That's a good suggestion. But the box on the belt with the jacks and all that I consider part of the look of the centurions, kinda like Vader and his belt boxes

They came out great!

What paint did you use or have you dyed them?

I spray painted them. Hopefully the paint stays. I'll be touching them up though.

I see.

I've used spray paint on mine too but it didn't held up very well.

But it's a lot better now after being out of their stuffy storage boxes.
