fiberglass cylon undersuit project

Post by rustycylon » Sun Sep 01, 2013 11:56 am

making a fiberglass undersuit. It will be painted up and have the patches and ribbing glued to it and the armour will fit on the same as if it was a fabric undersuit.
I got the idea after looking at some of those BOG cylons.

Now that's a very unique idea. Bravo!

I'll be watching this thread with great interest.

Good luck with it. :salute:

I'm not sure what you mean.

Could you show me a photo or something?

The BOG Cylon's didn't have patches. They had ribs only. That can be made with rubber or plastic like tubing bought at the hardware store.

sorry for the lack of progress. With any luck the weekend should see the ribbing been attached.
:cylon:
Also, should I go for the cylon or colonial style lazerpistol holder?

I'd vote for a Cylon holster.
