I know some parts are not sitting 100% right, but for a first try with the new parts Im very happy with it

Thanks again, Mario.

Congratulations Trooper,!!! Welcome to EIB.

Used velcro, sewn tab on inside outer surface of undershirt. Then adhesive to inside of corresponding forearm. The pics posted here look like biceps...? Good luck and have fun!!!!!

Thank you, Glen. And also for all the help you gave to get me this far.

Congratulations trooper and welcome to Expert Infantry and also the EI Honor Gallery

Hi James, and thank you for your EIB application! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry. Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor, and please keep in mind that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. Thank you for your patience, James. The armor looks spectacular! As you can see, a few details and it will be ready for Centurion. It appears that Velcro or glue traces can be seen on the calves. If it is Velcro, maybe closing the calves a little more will solve the problem. The left seems to be a little open, a simple dressing issue. Reference images *************************************************** Centurion Requirements: In this section we prepare you for our highest tier of approval. Because Centurion photos must show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Level 3 might be seen there and not here and additional photos may be required. We try to point out all that we can from what we are able to clearly see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. L3.The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt. Trimming the edge a little will be enough. On the right side, it will probably be necessary to move one of the squares,. Reference images The finishing of the blaster is too "rough". While the rest of the weapon looks good(maybe paint some silver screws), we would suggest removing the scope/Hengstler etc., and sanding it down (at least to get rid of the large bumps) and repainting it. Reference image That's all James... As I have already told you, I hope to see your Centurion application soon...Congratulations!!!

Reference gallery may be of help

Crumbs and I was all ready to finally get my TK approved. Guess I'll have to continue working on the ANH calves.

I appreciate that clarification, Caleb - this really was Todd's idea that I helped push across the line to reality, then several additional folks jumped on it after I shared it with you. I'm delighted they ran with it, but yea I was the one who brought it to the Detachment and wrote the "CRL". The goal is always smiles on faces so I'm glad people got a kick out of it!
