Re: Snibo's Oota TK Build
Ok sports fans..... About a 43 mm gap between the eyes. There is not too much left before I start cutting into the highest point of the " nose" so to speak.
What ya think?

Re: Snibo's Oota TK Build
Well, here it is, the first full donning of one Oota #017 TK and Oota helmet. Any comments or suggestions are welcome, I want to get it right before submitting my application to the Academy this season.........I mean going for approval!
I did notice is that I need to bend the shoulder straps down and cut down the length of the forearms, I found it difficult to put the helmet on.... And the Thermal detonator needs to be centralised.
Cheers
