Recommendation For Waist Construction

[Crows Carrion]

What methods would you guys recommend for building the waist? The two ways I am picturing are leaving the segments separate and connecting it in the style of a belt or gluing all the segments together and sliding it on like pants? Because I have no clue which would work better.

This is what I did for the waist

I glued some straps using High-temperature glue sticks on the foam, large enough for my belt to go through the loops.


I hope this helps, if you have question ping me, I'll try to answer back quickly

I’ve been thinking about this a lot too, but I’m waiting until I get started on the undersuit since it will add thickness between my waist and the strap. I’ll make an adjustable nylon strap and buckle belt, but I still want the pieces to look cohesive.
