  1. Congrats Laurent ! First French Centurion, that's a great thing !! Hope to be the second one next week end I think this can convince other french stormies to try EI and/or Centurion too
  2. Thanks Mason ^^ I'v egot to say that it was really difficult to cut it and make it like that, but I'm proud of the result @Jarred : looks good
  3. Happy Birthday !!
  4. Great ! But, Laurent, just one thing you forgot : you have to ask for "TK" status before asking for EIB. Go HERE for that
  5. Hi ! Here's what I did with my heavy leather ammo pouch. Not easy to cut this kind of leather with only a pair of cisors... My right hand is dead Cutting pieces from the belt part of tha ammo ouch I cut about a year ago (I'm glad I kept it ^^) Cutting the top of the closure parts (realy hard to do ^^") And finally, the modified ammo pouch called V3 (V1 was to tall but ok for 501st, V2 was less tall and ok for EI, this should be ok for Centurion (I hope so xD)) Well if it's not ok, I'll have to buy another one Cheers !
  6. I'm waiting for mine too ^^ I think you have to glue the entire surface of the hand guards in order to make them get the shape of your gloves when you wear them. Can someone correct me if I'm wrong ?
  7. I've got something too ^^ PM on the way
  8. Ok thank you Mason ^^ I'll think about it to see what's the best I can do Latex hand guards and rubber gloves ordered ^^
  9. Yep ^^ I'm waiting for Mason's feedback about ammo pouch I can't wait to begin the upgrade XD
  10. Thanks ! I searched yesterday but didn't find them ^^" well, moreover, I can't see a lot of WW2 items because of French restrictions on these items... So these ones seems to be ok
  11. That's awesome !
  12. @Dashrazor : Thanks, I don't saw that oO I'll cut it tonight For the pauldron, I keep in mind your idea, I've got another one I have to try too ^^ I'm waiting for your feedback @bluehickey : I saw this one but I hesitated. May be I can get it and had the little part I already got on its right side ? what do you think ?
  13. Hi guys ! I'm planning to be Centurion with my incinerator and so, I had one little question about the ammo pouch. Let's see some pics ! in the game : mp40 ammo pouches : mine : I think the most accurate is the mp40, but the proportions are not good... Can I make my own from scratch or is mine ok for centurion (I don't think so but it's alwqays free to ask ) ? Another question : I think my pauldron is nearly ok but it has to be more smooth. So, can someone tell me what can I use to make it smooth ? I don't want to see the folds anymore, it has to be perfectly smooth Thanks guys !
  14. great project ^^ can't wait to see pics
  15. Thank you so much !! More than being the second ICN EIB, I'm the first French EIB . I think some other French members will follow with ANH armors ^^
  16. Here's the pic of the shoulder bell well placed : Thanks !
  17. Thanks ! I'll make the pic in the next few hours ^^ Well, as I explained, the shins I have can't be closed the right way : their shape made me having to close them as I did. That's why I add a plastic sheet on the right one : to make it as accurate as I can. I tried to close them the right way, this creates a lot of holes between the 2 parts and, with some fixations, it doesn't stay in place I explained that the first time I tried to get EIB status : I modified the piece to get a good looking...
  18. Thanks Mason ^^ Well, it moves a little bit when I move but I don't know if I really can fix it. Have I to fix it now for EIB (when I wear the armor, it is well placed, it just move a little when I move a lot my arms) ? Can I make some pics with only the top of the armor to show you this ?
  19. Let's go for second try ! ^^ I made all the modifications asked during the last weeks. I also modified my pauldron (really hard to do but I'm proud of it... ) I hope this time is the good one. Like the last time, I don't have my flamethrower, I have to get it back during the week so I made the pics with my SE-14R blaster. Let the pics talking : The details : All the shooting is here : shooting pics Thanks guys ! I'm crossing my fingers really hard
  20. Ok ! I understand ^^ I'm thinking of making a pauldron from scratch to match exactly the game for a next future but not for now I put the trims on the butt piece and cut the return edge of the kidney yesterday. I'll do the same for the chest tonight. I just have to find a shoulder bell to finish all the work I've got to do
