We finally made a point to take photos of our new armors today. It seemed everytime we have been to any event lately, we have just gotten suited up & out to work the floor or march the parade or meet & greet and have been too busy before suiting down to take some time to take photos.
Here are new pictures of me in my snow armor.
Yes, there are still a couple things that need improvement. I need to finish the other back pack. Another one of the boot straps came loose after the LEGO book release event. I think I might replace all of the white rivets on my bootstraps with the more-correct "Chicago" screws. I am also working on re-doing my "Winter-weight" snowtrooper duster. I might make another "summer" weight duster too one that is a little longer in back, and different, lighter-weight pants.....eventually. BUT, if I have to go out and troop RIGHT NOW -- I can make it work.

The new back pack is complete!
I am working on my "winter" version of the coat right now.
With CV being in Florida in August....I think I may have to make an even lighter weight soft parts option in the next few months.
But hopefully, I will get to show the winter version "in action" soon.

Awesome Looking Snowy "Sister Snow"
And the material looks good, shouldn't be a problem at C V.
... As most of the time when I trooper SWW in Florida it was Outdoors, and when I was Minus the Bucket I had no problem with being too hot

Nice set-up! Besides the things you mentioned, I think you need the symbols and lettering o the backpack.

Yes, those are all painted on now (the symbols & lettering) (on the mutant back pack too!)

I FINALLY finished re-doing my "winter-weight" snowtrooper coat. SHEESH! I had to take it apart & put it back together so many times!!!!!!
It is made out of the 'sherpa' fleece and I decided to fully line it. One of the 'issues with my lighter-weight sweatshirt fleece coat is that it rides up under my armor when I am wearing it (that is why it looks so short in the back)
I have not worn it with my full armor yet, but I plan to do so in two weeks when we are going up to Wisconsin for a concert event. I really want to get some "action" pictures of me in the whole 'new' armor pieces and maybe we will even have some snow on the ground (but not too much, so we can still drive up there for the event)

The new backpack:
New winter-weight coat:
It DOES indeed have the proper belt loops, I just forgot to fasten them in these picrures
