Does any one know the name/type of straps which are used around the bicep
Im going to add some plastic wire like in this shot to bring the look closer!
Cheers for any help

The wires look like nylon cords, any climbing place should carry them, plenty of sellers online too. Just from the pic, they look like elastic nylon, but hard to tell for sure. The straps look like polyester-rubber blend elastic straps, you'll have to look around to find the matching pattern.

Hey buddy yeah going to go grabs some from a local store, I stupidly did not check my current straps and realised they are actually urethane :-( not sure how I can go about replicating now...
Also just throwing this out there, does anybody have any off cuts they don't need from coofunkcurly's undershirt mesh? If so throw me a pm as looking to get a bit more for my suit.

Are you talking about what appears to be 2" elastic strap that holds the armor in place, better seen here?

Hey DarthPinhead, yeah, on my cast I don't have the straps in between the chest and shoulder armour!
Yeah, comic guy is correct, they are molded urethane on movie suit, same with mine also.
Got any ideas Fabian?

They just look so perfect that even if they were cast in urethane, the mold would surely be based on something pre-existing. like a ribbed rubber belt turned inside out?

I think your right matey, I'm trying to find something which resembles this look, rather than pay to get it cast in urethane.

I think I've narrowed it down to "Ribbed rubber strip" in ze old Google. No luck finding the pattern, yet...

No problem, brother. It's actually been bugging me since the first time I saw the pic, lol! Thanks for the reps.

No probs for the rep, give it out where due!
This place looks perfect tbh, they even do custom designs!
Will send them an email for sure!
Thanks again buddy!
that should sort that problem out, next is save for some carbon fibre inserts and a cowl from coofunkcurly/finhead
If anyone watching is looking for a TDK cowl for a smaller head, give me a shout or a pm. I will be putting an interest or fs thread up soon. I have a 23" head but the cowl is too tight for me with a mesh hood. Any interest hit me up!
