Sharp work.

How did you make the upside down "V" shape on the chest?

Pretty good eye for using some of those parts. I really like the way you used those wires and attached it to the belt. That's very slick.

Thank you very much!

I am glad you enjoyed it.
I plan to make a variant as I found even smaller hoses. Hope it works better.

The chevron/upside down V is made by folding a flat section of soft card bubble and cutting it at a 45 degree angle from the fold. Perfect every time.

The hoses are held down by wires so they last long. Heating hoses also softens them enough to shape and curve them. Stays in curved shape after cooling.

Thanks for looking!
:-D
