Armour is Kropserkel and is his newest mods to the armour. I'm actually working with Scott to add the back armour and proper wrap around shin armour to his kits. So I'll be having those added very shortly.

The belt is custom made by myself to replicate an original belt as best I can.
The forms for the armour are wooded blocks screwed to a leather strip. Then covered in heat shink tubing and shunk to cover then the armour is attached with velcro.

Here it is finished with my Cylon Belt.

The undersuit is custom made by a local seamstress (Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) using my Paarexcellence made Cylon suit as a base and photo reference we've come up with a replica suit.

Black gloss vinyl, cording for the ribbing.

The vinyl is applied over a neoprene fabric, glues around the edges then sew on.

First fitting, disregard the boots, these are my Cylon boots, still working on the Gold version.
The buckles on the overalls will be moved to the back under the backpack.
Shoulders need to be taken in a bit they were too lose so they are pinned up.

Really quite beautiful how rich and deep the gold ism with the black undersuit it really pops!

As you can imagine this is a labour intense costume to make because off all the ribbing. The Labour breakdown for the Cylon suit is 47 hours by a very experienced seamstress, even then it was challenging for her. Yes its an expense suit.
The Backpack, I've added a plastic plate to cover the electronics, I found I would move the controls as I walked around so this protects the controls.
