check out Lanard Corps' Dragon Han (or the ninja guy) for the long-sleeved arms, would work out great without needing mods.

...and personally, i can't imagine any prisoner would tuck in their pants into their boots... better off with Tunnel Rat lower legs.

I agree with this. I know you were set, but here's a few more considerations to avoid having a belt. Use a Tracker waist but sand off the string to use as a one piece jumpsuit. Of if you want a two piece uniform use Duke v4's waist.


I'm pretty set on the Shipwreck torso... and I can't find a Waist without a belt that looks good with that Torso... Waists without belts that I've tried are too skinny at the belt line and leave the figure looking like it's got "love handles"... I don't think I have a Duke v4 waist in my fodder...but I'll try it out to see if it's any better..

My reasoning for the Belt is that it'd be allowed for a minimum security type prisoner... and It'd be part of the Restraint system for a Maximum security type prisoner...

I ruled out Tunnel Rat's Lower legs because he has piping/seam detail running down the side of his leg... I know it's not the best pic, but I didn't make any changes to Quick Kick's pants legs...just added boots in place of bare feet.... Does it look more like the pants are tucked into boots, rather than that the pants are just kinda short...?

As far as arms...I've given up on long sleeves... Casting and assembling the elbow joint is just such a pain in the ass that It'll be easier to just use bare production lower arms with the Cast short sleeves.....

I'll be casting them for my own use... but it's a safe bet that I'll be able to produce more than I need.... If there's Demand I'l provide a supply....

I was not planning Mass Casting (20+ copies)... I don't think the Demand would warrant it...

I like this very much except I'm not sold on the Hit & Run boots. I don't recall seeing many prisoners wearing boots but I could be mistaken. Watching shows like Lockup, Prison Nation, and Beyond Scared Straight, I've observed most prisoners wearing either sneakers, flip flops or sandals.

How about Quick Kick thighs with Wild Card lower legs? Wild Card wears sneakers and althought his pants are jeans, a small bit of modification can change them to look like plain trousers. I can put together a mock up if you wish...

I was thinking Shawshank Redemption when I went with boots...

I think I passed on Wild Card's legs because they had all the patches, as well as seam detail along the side. My initial idea was just to use stock parts...I'm clearly beyond that.... If you think you can get the Wild Card lowers to match up with Quick Kick thighs... I'm all for it...

I won't be casting the lower arms... because the elbow rivet is the most work to assemble. It will be up to the end user to choose the lower arms...that way they can ensure skin tone match.

I don't have pics of the whole figure because I've broken him down and started mounting the parts for casting... But LIVEVIL made me a killer set of legs that I'm more than happy to use..

saved and hosted the file on my photobucket?

First pull from the mold came out as well as I could hope...

I messed up cutting the crotch out of the mold.... It's probably not a big problem...but it will cause enough issues that I'm planning on just re making the mold.

Now it'll just be playing with color till I find a formula/shade that I'm happy with.
