Congrats and welcome to the EIB ranks!
Thanks Steve!! That really makes my day,
-
YEEEHAAAA!!! I'm sooo happy! Pitty of the 9 month delay!!
And yeah Steve that charging handle is indeed in the wrong way! As soon as I had it in and took a picture I noticed it and was disgusted
But it's no problem taking it out again and turning it around. I'm also thinking of making the charging handle a little darker. -
Soooooo... I "little" while later
and I finally got around to getting the blaster fixed with a D-ring and charging handle. There is a lot of reasons why it's taken so rediculously long (mainly work and family responsibilities) but luckily I still got a few troops under the belt in the meantime.Here is the pic:
Btw, recap, ab buttons where too small -> got repainted; blaster needs d-ring for EIB clearing -> d-ring installed (and charging handle).

Hey there! You bet I'm just waiting to get my armour approved for the 501st
Wayhey!!! Hi Matt! Welcome here dude and success with your clearance! Although you dont need luck at all, that's a nice suit and fits you really well!
-
Hi Steve, thanks, the buttons do look better yeah. I wouldn't go bigger than that though
it would start looking too much like FX armor otherwise I'd think. But yes, good improvement indeed.I did get everything ready for doing the blaster as well yesterday but was distracted by real life again (i.e. work
) and had to leave it again 
I found parts of my old, unfinished Doopydoos kit and will be using the D-ring and charging handle of that. I only need to drill some holes where the D-ring will be going. I'll also install the charging handle in preparation for centurion one day

Thanks a million guys!

Hi Guys,
Okay it took me a lot longer before I seen a tiny window for getting the suit and the paint out and re-do to paint on the ab buttons so here it is, can you let me know whether this is okay?
-
No worries Steve! I'll get that submitted with the pics for the repainted ab buttons. Thanks for everything guys!
-
Cheers Steve, thanks a million for coming back! I hope the troop was fun and there were a lot of smiles on kid's faces!?
I'll get the buttons touched up as soon as I can! It'll be a while before I get to it though, the kids are keeping me busy tonight and the week looks pretty busy in work. I’ll hope to get it done next weekend before my trip to San Jose.

To be fair though, does "borderline okey" sound like it qualifies for a quality award?
I found your quote a little amusing so I'm poking fun at it, but don't take it seriously.Haha Mathias
You're right in one way yeah, but I think none of the original 1977, screen used suits would have gotten a "quality" award! lol When it comes to the ab buttons I have seen screen used ones that are very little as well so I think it depends which suit you would look at. But I agree that it's more aesthetically pleasing to have them "fuller", therefore not more "screen accurate".Hey Frederic. RS sets are definitely helping the Legion to look more and more incredible. In regards to your EIB application, I need you to provide a few more additional required pictures, please. Close up of your left and right sides, Cod to butt plate attachment, interior strapping, and your Holster attachment. Thank you.
I do agree Steve.
And yes I will get you those pictures as soon as I can! -
Looks very good, the armor is nicely fitted to yourself, it's very pleasant to see! Best of luck
!IMO, there's some things which could be improve for EIB though:
- On your left side shot, you seem to have a misalignement between the Ab and the kidney plates. Perhaps du to the fact you're raising your arm but if not, i think you'll be ask to fix it.
- Also I think you will be ask to repaint your ab buttons, right now they're a bit too little
Reference:
- And on the right side shot, it looks like you could trim a bit more of your ab plate.
Thanks for that feedback Germain! Much appreciated.
The buttons are getting a well known issue with the RS suits but I have seen a lot worse than these. I did debate making them a bit bigger but then decided not to as they look borderline okay
-
Best of luck!
Looking good trooper!
Thanks a million Kyle!! It would start off my new year quite well should it get passed!

Hi Tim!! Thanks and congrats to you as well!
No, we have three EIB now!! For such a new and small Garrison (was still an outpost at the start of the year) that's not bad
I hope to be able to make the mods soon enough and make new pictures for Centurion application which would be the first in Ireland. Although I always thought that John D (Lonewolf) is the most deserving for that accolade.
