Hey guys just an update on the belt, harness, magnets, and A pieces! My partner has finished molding them and we'll be pulling the first casts VERY soon (like tomorrow or Saturday). He'll be modifying his current project run in the junkyard (currently only has the buckle).

What size did you tell them to print to fit on the Cosplaysky suit?

I asked them to scale down the forearm magnet to 6cm and scale the hand magnet accordingly. The default size is 9.5cm, way too big.

Awesome, thanks. I will follow your lead then!

Just an FYI ours are sized perfectly to the cosplaysky suit!

Those look great! What size straps do the prongs on the back buckle fit if you don't mind me asking?

I opted to use snaps vs sewing the sleeves to the shirt so that I can throw the shirt in the washing machine.

I used these snaps

I would suggest using a long sleeve under shirt vs a short sleeve. And I may take in the part under the armpits in the future (if I can figure out a good spot to do so)

If you have any questions let me know!

Did you have a tailor make your alterations or did you do them yourself?

These look AH-MAE-ZING. Guess I'll need to upgrade my parts

If you and Kevin can assemble the harness and belt to be at least as good as what kingsley's produced, this is a no-brainer for me. Kingsley's offerings definitely left room for improvement. One thing to note as you guys are assembling these, the metal bits on the belt pouches need to be secured on very strong, as it's easy to knock them off when carrying a shield with the metal hardware on the shield handles.

Btw, roughly how large are the magnets and the belt buckle? The buckle looks a bit bigger than dstengler's, which would be good considering there's a ton of extra space on the Cosplaysky abs.

It was a bit of both. I planned it out then had a friend of mine (who went to school for fashion) sew it up. I added the snaps my self and disassembled the sleeves.

Thanks for the compliments! I actually modeled the magnets to fit perfectly on the cosplaysky suits (assuming the little area where they go doesn't change between sizes).

I'll measure the buckle when I get home but if I recall correctly it is about 2.25" tall.

Here is a teaser pic (excuse the horrible lighting as this was just a quick snap. Also the canvas areas aren't glued/sewn on yet so they will sit a bit straighter)

And here's some pics of other leatherwork I've done

The buckle is roughly around the same size as dstengler's I believe. Your leather work looks awesome, thanks for sharing!

I had a chance to see the cosplaysky suit up close at comic con this year, as several people were wearing them. Some had made improvements, replaced leather pieces, etc. some not. Overall, I guess if you are on a budget this is a decent option. It does look really great in photos, but in person, it mostly looked like pajamas.
