      I actually going to mount the busa shoulders to the MKVI shoulder plate, I couldn't think of any other way to mount them without serious modifications, but if you have any ideas Im willing to listen, I belive the shoulder may stick out a little mounted to the MKVI shoulder

      This is looking great, and in such a short amount of time. Wow!

      I took a look and, I have to say... no offense to Ithica at all, since his work is quite stunning, but those shoulders really don't look good mounted in that fashion.

      I do have some ideas. After looking at the armour the shoulder is based off of (shogun armour), it appears that you could quite easily attatch the upper piece to your under-armour and have the lower attatched to your bicep piece. The middle would then be attatched to a piece of elastic running between the two, and this would allow the best range of movement.

      I hardened the insides of the busa shoulders with smooth cast 321 so they have a little weight to them. I see what your saying about mounting it to the under armor but I think the weight of the shouder pieces will force them to hang down, I was thinking about cutting out some of the MKVI shoulder plate and mounting in a strip of metal to contor to the shape of my arm also to prevent the shoulders from sticking out to far but thanks for the Idea Captain Recon I will still keep it in consideration

      I'm tempted to say don't anchor the bottom piece of the shoulders. This is what I believe to be the best solution for anchoring.

      Im going to give your Idea a try, Ill test it with tape and stuff around the house to see how well your concept works, thanks for the drawing, Also in the pics below you'll notice that the shoulders seem to naturally fall on top of each other

      This is why I suggested my method - you won't have the plates flailing about randomly if two of the three points are anchored.
