  1. Just found a piece of the new TK backpack from Rouge One. It is the section with the circles on the back, which is an internal top piece of a plastic ammunition box Here is the link to a German military disposals store that has them for sale. -----------
  2. You can always look at dropping the biceps as an alternative, but make sure the spacing between Bicep and fore are are balanced left and right. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Hi Chris, 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. Thank you for kitting up again to get the new side shot, much better on the side gap. The only other suggestions we have here are to bring the tops of the shoulder bells in by shortening the straps, as mentioned by one of your fellow troopers. Also if you can decrease the gap between the bottom of the biceps and top of the fore arms and even them out. 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. We have no areas to mention here. We love seeing great quality RS builds coming across the desk, and this one is no exception. We have nothing more to add here except check the Centurion CRL requirements and get your submission ready. Congratulations Trooper. We love seeing a great RS kit, and this is no exception, it fits you beautifully.
  4. Thanks Chris, great photos by the way. Will be with you shortly.
  5. Hi Walt Just checking in to see how things are going. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to send Tony or myself a PM Cheers
  6. Hi Jim Could you please add some missing info from the top of your application. Name: Legion ID: Forum Name: Garrison: Thank you Edit: Can we also have an external photo of the snaps on your Butt plate, as we cant see them in your photos. Just need to make sure they are not painted white.
  7. Hi Dave You need to have past EIB first before you can submit for Centurion I have had a quick look at your EIB app and there will be some things you will be required to change for Centurion so you will need to re post for Centurion at a later date. Sorry Tony and are are a little behind at the moment as I am away for work this week and tony is flat out at work too. Thank you for your patience brother will get back to your EI application as soon as I can.
  8. Hi Ryan, thank you for your application for Centurion, lets see what we have!! CRL and Centurion Application Requirements: All required photos are present. Thank you for making the suggested minor paint corrections from the EIB review, your armour meets all requirements as set out by the level 3 CRL. With that Uk and myself would like to congratulate and welcome you to the Centurion ranks. Great job. Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: We have nothing to add except for what a lovely job with your build, I for one would be proud to march along side you. .
  9. Hi Hunter Any chance you could post up a close up photo of the back of your shins and another of the front. You don't need to be wearing them, we are just trying to figure something out. Thank you for your patience.
  10. Hey Chris Any chance you can kit back up and get another side photo so the gap on the non rivet side is closed up a bit more, The allowance for EIB is approx 12 mm and yours is quite wide. I do think it is a dressing issue but give it a crack. Also check the Bells as your fellow troopers have mentioned and see if you cant bring them in at the tops (not a deal breaker for EIB) but you are close. Cheers
  11. Hi Preston I am having issues accessing your posted photos to edit them and highlight areas for adjustment or modification, so for the cover strip example I am going to use another image of sombody elses armour with the same issue Please reference your action shot to see the extent of the thigh cover strip, As you can see from this screen used thigh the front cover strip stops at the ridge and doesn't pass over it. So you need to carefully trim yours shorter at the bottom. This is not an EIB requirement but for Centurion it should be correct. Depending on how yours are glued down, if it is E6000, you can pull the stips off at the bottm and cut them shorter, then glue back down.
  12. I am away for work at the moment but as soon as I have the opportunity I will post up some photos to show what I mean with regards to the cover strip.
  13. Hey Kris. Thank you for your EIB application. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. We'd just like to say excellent job on your build, which has made our job very easy in this instance, thank you. Centurion Suggestions: In the Centurion section we make recommendations to make sure you have the best chance of passing our highest level of achievement. The only thing we find that is only a suggestion would be to change the screws on the Thermal Det to a standard slotted head. Yours are close but still not correct,. Reference image Get that Centurion application in, it was very obvious from this build that this was your goal from the outset. Congratulations once again on an excellent job, and good to see another Aussie joining the ranks
  14. Nice build Hunter, we will be with you as soon as possible.
  15. Hi Preston Screws for Thermal det are a slotted head, the type that require a normal flat blade screw driver to tighten. The top shoulder bell straps could be shortened up so the top of the bell almost touches the plastic shoulder bridge. Tony and I are running a bit behind so have a go at adjusting those straps. Dont need to worry about the screws for the Thermal det, as they are not a CRL requirement, only an accuracy thing that we suggest. Could you also add a photo of the rear of your blaster showing the D ring. Lastly, the cover strip on your thigh is to long. It should finish at the top of that bottom ridge and no go over and on to it. Thank you,
  16. Excellent, Excellent another FO TK for Australia. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. Hey Jerome, thank you for your EI application, so 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. It is great to see good builds of Anovos armour coming through. I only wish Anovos would do something about correcting the helmet frowns and using correct screws so we didn't need to bring it up in so many applications. Although some of those elements don't have a bearing on approvals, they would look more the real deal. Overall Jerome, a very nice job sir with a few little adjustments and we will also go through the changes to make you look your best below. This is most probably only a suiting up issue, but just wear the fore arms at the same height so you have nice balance of the visible black areas. Also perhaps look at moving the shoulder bell straps forward so the gap between them and the chest plate decreases. I noticed in the full rear shot that gap is almost closed, so I think relocating the straps is all it will take. Two things may be causing the separation between the bottom of the back plate and top of the kidney. 1. the straps are too long at the Back-kidney juncture. 2. The chest to shoulder elastic straps are a touch too short causing the back plate to rise. Take a look at both and see what works best here so the plates sit nicely on top of each other. As ewe move down to the thighs, one is sitting higher than the other so level them out with a strap adjustment to slightly increase the height of the ammo belt thigh. Not quite sure what happened here but it does look like the plastic ammo portion of the belt is not mounted centrally to the canvas belt proper, but rather sitting too high up. it is reasonably noticable and there might be a little work to move it depending on how you have mounted it and what glue you have used on the button plates. I would like to see more photos of the back of the belt to help offering up a simple solution. Secondly, your drop boxes will need to align with the ends of the belt for Centurion, so perhaps a dab of glue to secure the elastic in the correct position so they dont move inwards and away from the ends as we can see in the supplied photo. Ok, so know we will look at the finer details of accuracy, the things that after all the effort, Anovos should get right out of the box. These little things make all the difference to having that just walked off the set look to an already great set of armour. The supplied ear screws should be the V head, not pan or dome head type as supplied. Reference Image Thermal Det screw should be Pan head variety and slotted or flat blade, not the supplied Philips head type, and as the cream on top painted black. Reference image You could also swap out the mic tip mesh for a larger type. We see many troopers using kitchen sieves to cut out from and glue in place with a touch of CA glue. Reference Image It might seem like quite a list but they are in the grand scheme of things only minor issues that can have you looking even more spectacular than you already do. 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. We have a few areas to mention here. The frown is something that we really like to see corrected as it is just not accurate for AHN Stunt. The ends should gradually taper out to a point and not finish square at the ends. Below we have supplied a series of different screen used images of the frown, so please choose one you like and modify to suit. Although a little difficult to see clearly, I would just like to point out the extra seam line on your side shims. For Centurion this needs to be almost invisible, so i can see some ABS paste work in your future. A mix of ABS small off cuts and shavings mixed with acetone to create a toothpaste like consistency. You then smear this on along th join and when set, sand it back using fine sandpaper and finally polishing it until the seam line is gone. As per the Level 3 CRL A single visible seam line is present. As we say above the final accuracy is up to the trooper, some take it to extreme and some don't. Either way it is really up to you and how hard you want to push the envelope. Congratulations once again, and we hope to see you in Centurion review in the future.
  18. Thanks brother, Know I don't need to mention it in your review. It wont be too much longer.
  19. Hi Jerome I am going over your submission photos and noticed you have painted the snaps on the Butt plate white. These should not be painted. Would be great from an accuracy standpoint if you removed the paint and posted up a new photo.
  20. Hi Walt<br><br> UK and I ar running a little behind, and will be with you as soon as possible.<br><br> In the mean time, could you shorten up the top straps of your shoulder bells so the bell virtually touches the plastic shoulder bridge, it's going to make you look that much more accurate.<br> Thanks in advance for your patience.
  21. I will edit the title for you later today Ryan. U.K. And I are running a little behind so we will be with you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance for your patience. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
