Shoulder bell to chest plate space is the same in back. I didn't know I had such wide shoulders.
I'm knock-kneed as well. I will try to boil some water and reshape the church bell thighs.
I also need to tuck the cod cup in a bit. It's sticking out and the thighs keep hitting it, and causes snaps to pop.
Just about a 1/2 inch bend is all it needs.
I have to shave some off the forearms on the inside.
The 11 dimples must stay, so I can't shave there.
Because this is an FX suit, the chest and back are long, there cannot be cut to eliminate the back and kidney overlapping. It has been raised on the shoulder as far as possible. The "O II" is as high as it can go. If I were to cut, it would interfere with the detail, and if I cut the kidney any more, it will not match up to the ab plate.
Aside from being put on a rack just to fit in this costume, this is how it has to be.
Need to lower that bottom plate...may shave some off the sides of the crotch, the cheek lift is still happening.
Ankles are also needing some trimming. I've been taking 1/4" off each pass, keeping the shape.
Back of thighs top-to-bottom is a fit, the oval shape of the knee area causes them to turn inward as I walk. There is no pinching when the rear cut-outs are in the proper place behind my knees... Hot water method coming up, definitely.
Also you can see the crotch on the butt plate, so cheeks push the whole thing up (industrial velcro is keeping the kidney and butt plate in their proper non-overlapping state).
Calves have a strip with velcro hook on both sides. The inside of the calves have loop velcro on both flaps. Gluing to one side failed. Someone with large calves posted a solution I followed on whitearmor.net.
