[QUOTE="RamSkirata, post: 496468, member: 14052"] Youre right! My first step in the upgrades would be to asess the entire armor-concept in terms of kit and colors. I really like the helmet, but we'll just see :) I want to spice it up with more detailed paint, "fix" the right ear with something that is not a rangefinder but does not look like it simply was forgotten. :) Plus I dont like the curvature on the chest plates. That would need updating but thats looong in the future^^ As far as activities in armor goes... really! Bouncing, Jumping chest to chest and the like... The women in unpainted armor that you see in the group picture... Ive seen a video of her rolling! In armor! A full on roll! Admittedly, my suit wasnt set up for that but hers was. Working with aluminum, another aspect comes into play when it comes to physical activity: Your own safety. Plastic will just break before it injures you. Metal will not and for someone to be able to really do athletics in armor, the entire system needs to be set up for that: Plates unmovably attached and in a way were you wont hurt youself with strange and fast movements. The back plate, belly plate and cod plate are especially dangerous. But it can be done. I do appretiate your Shysa by the way... Pre-"New Star Wars" Mando stuff :) [/QUOTE]
