Ran into an 'issue' with the faux metal mesh skirt. It seems i can cut it with a normal scissors. However there's warning that it can wear down the blade of the scissors. That's fine. I can sacrifice a pair of scissors should i proceed with the cutting but now the question is on the sewing part. So far none of the seamstress i've asked are willing to do that as they do not want to spoil their sewing machines. I was thinking of cutting the material and folding it so need at least one edge to be sewed then velcroed so it can stick to the back of the top. Oh well...looking at alternatives such as maybe just using fabric. Anyone knows where to get fabrics that can passed as Cylon skirting?

On another note - it seems that Kropserkel is now offering real metal maille skirt (gold or silver) at a price of $200.

Have you seen the skirting thread here:

There are many fabric stand-ins you could get. Some look quite the part, a good alternative if you want to save some cost.

Don’t get the Krop .. get off eBay and save yourself at least $150!

Mines attached to my undersuit using three sew in hooks. Have eyes on the mesh that attaches to the hooks and looks the part...



I’m the one on the right.

Looks awesome MackUK. Love how it hangs at the back like in the Show. The ankle armour too looks more to the Show than the Krop one. I'll heed your advice and take a look at Ebay. I got the Roland VT-4 protector on Ebay too thanks to your advice.

Awesome Matsom.

Happy to help out wherever I can !
