Sorry I was gone so long, rough year (THREE computer viruses in a row…).
So bennain got it exactly right (except for color, minor detail that doesn’t matter for what I’m after) with the top right belt; That is EXACTLY the effect I wanted (at least for the officers). Now, the real question is ¿can anyone make one? For a prototype, that is… See, I’d like to send it into Playmobil’s headquarters for further development, but I’d really rather not send them one that falls apart in transport, looks bad (no hot glue), or is permanently mounted to the body.
