I like the smaller one personally. Maybe the white 'pops' too much and it will look more 'correct' black, but I believe they look big in the movie because most of the clear shots of it are of Vaz, and she was tiny. |

I agree with Bigbisont, but I think either one would be fine. It's the steadycam vest that gives the impression of being heavily armoured. Can't wait to see the larger one painted black! |

It's difficult to judge without seeing it on the harness, but it looks about right. The other one was definitely too small. |

The new one looks perfect. but a pic of you with it up to ur chest would be the best. and where did you find the pattern for this if you can post the link that would be greeat. |

I think the white one will work, any chance we can see a picture of you wearing the flak and holding the armor in place? |
