Hi did you still got the chest holster file? I mean the ghost glock holster.
The file is for the baseplate, not the holster itself. You will need to buy the appropriate holster to attach, which is a Blackhawk SERPA CQC Concealment holster.

Hi Jesse, I was wondering if you still have the file to 3D print the chest holster platform. I also want to know what is the name of the straps and the SERPA holster you purchased?
Hi!
The file for the holster should still be live if you just run a search on my blog for holster. I added the download link as a reblog to one of the preview/Wip Posts.
The straps aren’t anything special, just 25mm nylon webbing. Make sure you get the same size buckles and such too.
The holster is a clone of a Blackhawk CQC Concealment Serpa Holster, and was taken from a drop-leg rig. It doesn’t matter if you get one that’s belt-mounted or platform mounted, as long as you can unscrew it from its mount and screw it to the printed mount with enough thread for a stable mounting, you should be good.

Hello !!! Hello !!! I love your cosplay guides as they also help me figure out gear for my cod OCS, but I have a question!! What gear is more common with snipers?
You ofc don't have to answer but it'd really help!!!
Snipers are odd in the fact that a lot of their equipment is very mission-specific, and/or carried in tertiary kit like a backpack or gun bag.
Additionally, when in their FFP (final firing point), if the situation permits they’ll remove bulky equipment and set up behind the gun in just their clothes and whatever they’re using to conceal themselves (ghillie suit, viper hood, etc).
That said, half the time all that really distinguishes a sniper from regular line troops (outside of wearing ghillie) is the rifle carried.
The following is based on my own observations from different forms of media including accounts about snipers by others, and will be a broad generalisation.
So from a clothing standpoint, you’ll commonly see them wearing full BDU tops instead of tactical-cut shirts like the G3 or Striker XTs: this is generally due to being more protective against the elements and environment, as well as adding a little more camouflage and concealment. Combat pants are also likely, given the integrated joint protection provided, though regular BDU trousers combined with kneepads may also be worn.
Additional components like ghillie suits and hoods may be adopted, but that comes down more to specific mission needs and the operating environment. And they’re always tailored for their final operational environment. That said they can come in different forms: full ghillie suits that cover the wearer head to toe in foliage that’s picked from the natural environment; half-ghillies that can be worn to hide either the torso or legs; hoods that cover the head and shoulders, with some that can extend down to the elbow and middle of one’s back (viper hoods and Crye’s compact assault ghillie are examples of these).
For load bearing equipment, you could honestly pick anything from a simple belt rig all the way to the full plate carriers worn by other personnel. Again, this comes down to the mission at hand and the operating environment.
Snipers are more a reconnaissance tool than anything else, so bear that in mind. Anticipate them carrying more tools used for observation and reconnaissance purposes, like rangefinders, designators, spotting scopes, etc. A lot of that will also becarried in a backpack, very rarely in dedicated pouches on a vest or chest rig. You could carry binos/rangefinder in a belt pouch if you’re expecting to use them a lot.
Hope that helps point you in the right direction.

it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever

I have had a ghost ask in my inbox for the longest time, and it had been driving me crazy.
Whenever I would login on desktop I would see that (1) by my inbox and think “oh! Someone’s dropping by with a cosplay ask” or a response to a tag game or something, and I’d click on it to see, only to get an empty inbox.
Well no longer.
It finally showed up.
It was a p*** bot message to a clearly scammy link from a long abandoned blog that likely got jacked for use as a distribution platform.
So yeah.
Fun.
At least my inbox is legitimately empty of unread asks now.
