I have felt better these last few days and have been working off and on on the suit. As the pictures show, I have the aluminum neckring painted and installed. And the helmet visor on the LEVA is done.
I have also started installing the LS gas connectors, and have the glove disconnects in place.
And I have the UDC valve in place:

Sorry there has been little progress this week. It seems I picked up a rather nasty bug at work that has kept me under the weather this week.
I am starting to feel a little better, and actualy did a little work on a new ITMG cover for my LEVA. I was not happy with the fit of the first one I made. If I make any real progress I’ll put up some pictures.
So in the mean time, here is a photo of my last suit:
Update:
The promised pictures of the LEVA in its current state:
And for Johan, my Hasselbladski:
Until next time, remember if the caution light will not clear; just tap around it with your flashlight. Its probably just a ball of solder.

A couple of pictures of the major assyembly. The ITMG inplace over the inner suit. No hardware yet. And not finished. Just wanted to check the assyembly and location of the pockets etc.
Still need to finish the arms at the connector locations. And the back zipper/flap and abrasion patch.
Next some photos of the LEVA I am working with. Still looking for some options on the visors both clear and gold.
Things are comming together. I have applied some lessons learned from privious projects.

My new LEVA with a fresh ITMG and paint on the sun shield. It had a commanders red stripe. I am doing a LMP version.
I am temporarily using a lexan visor I had, it does not fit very well.
