Flightsuit: I already had a white flightsuit that I had for another project that I changed my mind on, all ext pockets removed, sleeves altered, cut up some pants I was going to toss to make a pattern for the suede patch.
Helmet: I am in the process of acquiring a fiberglass helmet in a trade. side note, its the angle of the camera and/or the lens, the sides of the visor aren't shaped as badly as they appear in this photo.
Hold out blaster: 3d printed.
Still need to buy:
-Balaclava - purchased
-Gloves - purchased, no luck finding locally so I ordered from Amazon for $4, then found a 3 pack for $2.80 locally.
-Mukluks - purchased, thank you to my amazing brother for Christmas.
Still need to make:
-Vest - done
-Cummerbund - done
-Pouches - done
-Thermal Detonator (3d print parts to add to PVC)
-Shoulder armor mold - WIP
-Forearm armor mold - WIP
-Glove armor mold
-Utility belt mold needs adjusted - WIP
-Back armor mold (going to use a shadowguard back as a base) - WIP
-Chest armor mold (just happened to have this old start of a TK chest plate that is going to work perfectly as a beginning to a snowy chest plate. - WIP
So theres where I am at today.

Nice job on that vest! Looks good!
Thanks, probably the most advanced sewing project I've taken on.

some helpful information that I would like to share since there doesnt seem to be any that I could find on adding the straps to the mukluks, that I got from Daryl, a very helpful member of the CCG, using a soldering iron to melt the holes in the spine of the boot makes a nice clean hole without affecting the seam that is behind that spine, also a soldering iron CAN be used to melt a hole in cotton webbing, not just synthetic webbing.

Did work out a new trade for a new Studio Creations helmet kit, started assembling that recently, all glued together, outside edges still need cleaned up and figure out what to do with the helmet back to dome gap, abs slush? Also 3d printed snout painting template
