For those of you who are curious to see the 2nd prototype, here's the fit test with the internal sleeves in place:
It fit really nicely, but because the position of the arms was different...
...it made the fit at the shoulders change near the neck. This is why it's so important to do a fit test with any alterations you make: a change in position of the arms makes the shape of the shoulders different. Edits like this can ripple though the entire pattern. So if you still want a skin tight fit, you may have to make adjustments along the way.
I wish also a happy new year.

you can add rigid pad for hands for block fingers or internal mittens, good idea sleeve for hand behind the back , but finger must to be blocked , i hope you add a leather hood :)
ReplyDeleteMy idea is to use mittens inside the internal sleeves. And if you know me, you know that an attached hood is definitely part of the plan... =)
DeleteHope you've had a lovely Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThanks thisgirl, and same to you and Grimly. We are having fun so far...

ReplyDeleteThe red vinyl looks really festive.
May I ask what type of vinyl you use to prototype?
Thanks AR80! The vinyl is something I picked up in the garment district in downtown LA. I don't see any identifying markings, but many stores carry similar vinyl in that area.
DeleteI think it was this place: Natalies Fabric 900 Maple Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90015 Phone:(213) 683-1585 (They don't seem to have a website.)
