Judge Dread , Judge Death armour build

Holy cow. You guys have done a phenomenal job. I've been slowly chipping away at my own Judge Death costume. I had a question that has been posing quite the obstacle for me. How are y'all attaching the shoulder pads to yourselves? I didn't want to have some random straps stretching across my chest and back to keep them up in place, but that seems to be on option I can think of. Do y'all have any other ideas? (i'm also on a budget with mine)
 
My first thoughts are to sew loops of Paracord to the Undersuit & attach elastic to the pads with Velcro closures. Pass the elastic through the loops & that should keep the pads in place. I intend doing this with all the pads. Done correctly the loops should be under the pads & out of sight. The elastic should allow movement without being constricting.
 
could use earth magnets ? was considering using them on mine because the pauldrons are so big don't think nothing else will hold them in place. look forward to pics of your progress
 
I would sew Velcro onto the under suit , and glue Velcro inside the shoulder piece . That way you can position and re position the shoulder pieces until you get the optimum position for them .
