Finding the perfect material and scale though is trial and error, but items such as straps can always be redone. Has any one tried to make an adjustable strap for a 1:18th scale gun?
Exactly, and thanks.
Ultimately though, it comes down to whatever the customizer is happy with, or what they like, of course. I've said that several times, in several threads. I'd like to think that everyone can understand that I'm not saying you have to do it this way or that, not at all. Just trying to get people to expand their skills beyond the figs - IF they care about it.
Ripper,
