Hi guys!

Some of you may know, but for the past six months or so, I've been working on body armor for the teams! Some of the JVX crew may have seen (or worn) my prototypes on one of our recent rescues. The product is about as finished as it is going to get, without me continuously updating and improving it (which I'll probably do anyway), soooo this is a heads up to say, hey, you're getting body armor.

This means that Magik and I want to get your ideas for what you would like your armor to look like. It's all gonna be made of the same material, and will generally be the same style. They'll have to be mostly black, with an X somewhere on the armor - that's Scott's call, because as much as it's body armor, it's also kind of a uniform too. However, there's a lot of room for creative license, so email me back and let me know what you'd like yours to look like, and maybe we can set up a time to take measurements and work out the details!

Oh hey, and if you have questions, those too.

Thanks,
Shadowcat

I'm figuring probably Legacy. Either one would probably go with my armor, but I think I like the idea of the neon blue with the black. And...nah, no actual lighting up. Maybe just reflective so it looks like it lights up?

How stealthy are we supposed to be making these?
