I'm liking it. You're having the same problem I had with my eyes showing in the flash. I'm gonna try for some silver lenses again soon to try and remedy that.

I really like your ab mod between the front and the back. It looks really sharp to me. Great job! I'm working on getting making myself a blaster so I can submit for approval.

Yep, the lenses are too clear, you need to change it so your eyes are not seen when taking flash photography.
Other than that, the abd buttons should be black, not silver. Everything else looks GREAT!!!!

Looking good so far. Agree with the lenses and ab buttons, but other than that, looks good. Needs the buttplate though. ;)

Yep, black buttons.
Silver ones looks cool but it falls into the custom TX and is not acceptable into the Legion.

I've been thinking about going to cloth for the back of my belt as well. just finished upgrading to a snap system for the harness two days ago. (The Velcro was falling apart in the test run) What material are you using? Black canvas?

Maybe hes pioneering a new sit down mod? :P I bet it would be comfy. J/K!! Looks good! Did you use the tutorial on the FISD for your belt? Or did you just kinda wing it?

Forgot to throw it out there you might want to put a strip of the fuzzy side of velcro over the rivets to keep the from tearing up your undersuit if you havent already.
