posticon My Begins all glued up, STOKE


So I finally managed to get my hands on my first begins suit. All components proudly Canadian emoticon Thanks Jeff

These are the first few pics after the glue up, sorry for the crappy night time iphone quality pics conbined with crappy lighting

Now just have to figure out which way i want my belt clasp to work, add the cape and clips and I'll be pretty much done emoticon

And the funniest bit of the glue up.. lets just say that its probably best for your GF not to turn the superlue bottle upside down when she's holding it above her face emoticon

A+

for my belts, I generally just put velcro pads on the back of the suit, and the matching piece on the belt.. holds it just fine.

Looks great! I use velcro on the back of the suit, as well as magnets on the belt. Looks good for display and I can jump off stuff without the belt popping off.

Re: My Begins all glued up, STOKE


take your example of what to do by what was done for the stunt suits and their belts in all the films



stitch in a small velcro square in the front where you want the buckle to always sit, then stitch in
velcro squares on the hips of the torso armor where the straps should always make contact, and one more in the very back on the the left and right side of the zipper if you feel you need it for the weight

this will securely lock the belt to the torso that it will not slide around and will almost always look perfect, it will also keep it free of legs which need to move freely

Remember, you can also use earth magnets up front! One disc magnet behind your armor, one glued to the belt and covered in soft cloth. This will keep your belt in place without changing the look of the front of your armor!
