  1. Hi Samuel I think you rear sight is mounted backwards. The edge that has the nicks in it or looks like serration on a knife should be facing the back of the blaster and not towards the front.
  2. Sorry I don't have the link at the moment but someone on the RPF has the pack, grenade holder rack and frame components listed and up for sale. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Excellent work! and thank your for the repairs. Your armor has met all the requirements to qualify you for Centurion. Uks and myself would like to congratulate on a job well done. Great job. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: Joseph, thank you for your perseverance and willingness to make the necessary changes and inclusions to your application. You look fantastic and this is a well deserved Centurion approval. Congratulations again and continue to do your Garrison and the legion proud.
  4. Great work will be with you shortly. In the mean time, please post up a photo of the other side of your blaster. All the images you have provided are of the same side wich has the magazine on it. We need to also see the side with the charging handle on it please. Thank you

  6. Hey Joe, what do ya know!!, Its time to review your EI application, so lets see what we have here CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry so congratulations Trooper! I would just like to say, I have no idea why this did not post the first time I put it up and very sorry that I only just noticed your post regarding this. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observation made by us and your fellow troopers, if any of these observation would affect a future application, they will be made in the above and or below sections. I can happily say, the only things we found are very minor tweaks and wont affect the outcome of reviews. The first of these tweaks is possibly just a strapping check of your Butt plate. As we see in the below photo, it is popping out and up on the side. This may even only be a photo issue, but goes towards you looking the best you can. Secondly we look at the painting of your main ab plate buttons. Just a little touch up on the two blue buttons and your done. Finally only an accuracy suggestion, but you could upgrade the mesh in the mic tips to a larger type. Reference image Centurion Suggestions: Very clean build good sir. We do our best to try and find anything that will affect a Centurion application, sometimes there are things that don't present themselves until the more detailed photos of a Lvl 3 app are seen. Hopefully all going well we wont find anything in a Centurion application that we are expecting to see from you very soon. Congrats again on a great application and a very nice set of armour.
  7. Nice share Evan, thank you.
  8. Well well well, look who we have here! Welcome to your EIB review Joseph, lets take a walk on the wild side!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry , congratulations Joseph and welcome to the Expert Infantry!! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: Here is where we go through any comments made by your fellow troopers and observation both Tony and I may make in the review process. If anything is found that would effect an application it will be mentioned either in the above or below sections of this report. We also make comment on things that can help you look your absolute best. Great job on the helmet mods to get this kit up to Hero spec, I think you may be the first with an Anovos to take it there, you are to be commended. Only a couple of suggestion to make mention of, these were brought up by your trooper brothers. We think maybe some heat treatment on the shoulder bridges will get them to sit better against your back plate. I had the same problem with mine so I used a hair dryer rather than a heat gun to adjust them down. Reference image It looks like the ear screws used here are pan head style, where they should be the V head or counter sunk style. This is only an accuracy thing and if in fact you have used the V head type I stand corrected. Reference image Although it is hard to tell the size of the painted abb buttons from your image, we do believe they could be painted a little larger. Generally the approximate measure is 11mm across, as a matter of interest, how wide are yours? Here is just a little accuracy suggestion that gets missed from time to time. The snap on the upper portion of the Ab plate was mounted on the outside, where it was mounted internally on the original costumes. This should be easy enough to drill the center out and mount a new snap on the inside Reference photo of screen used Ab plate. Centurion Suggestions: In this section Uk or myself may suggest recommended or required repairs or modifications prior to applying for the Centurion level however, the accuracy it is ultimately up to the trooper. Unless the more detailed set of photos needed for Centurion reveal anything, we can say your armour is in great shape. We do however have a minor blaster item to cover. On close inspection of your Blaster, we discovered you have the rear sight mounted backwards. The scalloped section should face the rear of the gun. Reference image Very nice build and an excellent job on the Helmet. Only a few things to attend to, although most are only suggestions, but we know you got this. Congratulations yet again, and we certainly look forward to seeing a Centurion application from you soon.

  10. Hi Gary, yes please remove the remaining return edge from the fore arms. I love your bucket off photo, you look like the happiest man in the world. The best thing is, we know exactly how you feel. Nice build, we will be with you as soon as possible. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. Hi Jim, thank you for your EI application and your patience, lets get into it!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry , congratulations Trooper and welcome to the rank. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observation made by us and your fellow troopers, if any of these observation would affect a future application, they will be made in the above and or below sections. Nice fit and balance Jim, with only a few little things to cover off. If you could decrease the gap on the shoulder Bell so they are even it will look perfect, and just watch the elastic pulling out from under the plastic shoulder bridge. You could also move those top straps a bit forward as you have quite a gap between the chest plate and the front edge of the Bells. In your rear photo, the gap is much less which generally means the straps are closer to the back plate. Something else that can make a difference here is removing most of the return edge from the bottom of the Bells so they sit closer to the biceps and intern closer to your chest plate. Reference image. Secondly, we think your fore arms are too big compared to your Biceps. You should have a nice taper from one to the next so the top of the fore arms are only about the size of the bottom of the Biceps or a small amount larger. The hands should be a squeeze to get through the wrist end. I am hoping these are glued with E6000 so you can get them apart easily. Centurion Suggestions: In this section Uk or myself may suggest recommended or required repairs prior applying for the Centurion level however, the accuracy it is ultimately up to the trooper. The only clear issue is the Drop box positioning. As per the CRL for level 3 Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box. Reference image Not much to sort really Jim, thanks for a good application and we look forward to seeing you in the Centurion mix soon, Congratulations again trooper.
  12. I will look into that for you, and if it is indeed the case that you are the first Centurion in your garrison, we can add that as Kudos under your badges. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. You da bomb Jimmi, awesome work, can't wait to see this one come full circle. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. Hey David, a couple of things for you to do, while waiting. Please post up the photos of your blaster as they are missing, hope you turned that charge handle and rear sight around easy enough. You will also need to remove all the return edge from the wrist end of your forearms. You still have some to be removed from the ridge section that has the dimples in that run down the fore arm. All if it must go for the lvl 3 CRL. Thanks for your patience.
  15. Hi Joseph, you have only posted up a the close up photo of one side of your helmet, could you please post up the opposite side. Thanks brother.
  16. Looks like they are trying to make it harder to vac form various parts by adding more hard edges and angles. There is no doubt some of our talented armourers and members are already entrenched in development of these newer versions of the original TK. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. Thank you Clint, very professional mate and we greatly appreciate it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  18. Hi Preston, welcome to your EI review, with out further delay, lets take a look!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. UK and myself would like to congratulate you and welcome you the EI rank. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we take into consideration suggestions from your fellow troopers as well as our own observation with regard to the overall look and fit of your armour. If any of our findings would effect this or a future application they are noted in the above and below section of the review. Man you did good, this is a clean build with only a few things that need addressing, to get you looking perfect. For the most of it these are not CRL requirements only accuracy suggestions so you look the best you can. I will note here, for some reason I have been unable to copy your images and modify them to add the arrows and circles we normally put over photos to highlight areas to fix. things higlighted in your thread. Thermal Det srews I am not certain of the name of the typr of screw you have used below, but the correct type are called Slotted head screws, they require a flat head screw driver to tighten. Reference image of Thermal Det Secondly we have the shoulder bridge gap between the top of the Bell and the plastic shoulder bridge. This should be close to touching, and even though you may not get them that close, we think you can still get them a little further in or at least even them up so the gaps are the same. Reference image Centurion Suggestions: As much as we try to identify everything that might effect a Centurion approval, some things don't present themselves clearly until we see the more detailed shots that get submitted in that review. The only factor we see here is the cover strip on your thigh. It needs to be trimmed to the ridge and not actually glued over it. We know you are working on this fix already, so that's great. Reference image of cover strip and where it should finish at the bottom. Great job with this AP build brother and a well deserved EI award Make your corrections, follow the level 3 CRL and the photo check list and we hopefully see you at Centurion review in the near future. Congratulations once again .
  19. Congrats Hunter, great job on the armour.
  20. That' Thats not a cast , its the real thing painted up for sure.
