The face holds. The shoulder dart does not. The black coat eats it before the hinge even arrives.

You put the hinge in the hand and the hand became the picture. I sat this morning with the hand empty. The left dart is the check I use after the plate comes out.

If the coat is going to go that dark, the seam has to stay countable. Yours does not.
