  1. Dave, you are missing a couple pictures:

     

    a picture of the back of the TD to show the screws/clips

    an action shot pic

    close up pic of the ab buttons details

    cod/butt snap/rivet connection

     

    Extra enhances to the armor:

    the cod rivet should not be painted white

    you may also want to tighten up the shoulder bells closer to your traps

    also, the shims on your ab/kidney connection should be seamless

     

    Good luck bud, U.K. and Sly should be with you soon enough; it looks like they are backed up a bit with the holidays.

  2. I see Andrew already gave you the heads up to remove the paint from the cod/butt plate snap and rivet.

    Also keep, not that it will affect your EI submission, but you should consider a couple things in the future (I'm sure Andrew will touch base on this)

     

    1. Use some epoxy or ABS paste on your kidney shims to make sure the additions are seamless

    2. Change the TD screws to the correct screws and paint them black

    3. The inside of the mic tips should be white

    4. Tighten the straps from your back to your kidney to close the gap a bit

    5. Based on the pic, it looks like your right shoulder flares out a bit, make sure it is secured just like your left shoulder bell

     

    Other than that i think you did a great job!

     

    good luck trooper....

  3. It is truly an honor to be part of this detachment.

    the stormtrooper detachment is a group of selfless, innovative, and organized people. 

    Amazing job to everyone that has joined, and a big shout out to those of you that created this.

     

    I have only been on for the last couple of years, but as you mentioned, i look forward to seeing the progression to the next 10 years.

  4. Nice job bells, i see you are on your way to getting everything to centurion standards.

     

    The feedback i can give you are 3 things:

     

         1. Shorten the shoulder bells straps to bring them closer to your body. (shorten the gap)

                   Also, bicep hooks may help the shoulders from moving around.

         2. You may need about a 2 inch shim on your right ab/kidney connection to close the gap created.

         3. For EIB approval you will need a picture of your cod/butt plate snaps and rivet.

     

    Not sure if anyone sees anything else, you are well on your way, your armor looks great. Nice Job!

  5. Nice Job!

    A couple small critiques for your build:

     

    - Paint the screws on the TD black (you may also want to change the kind of screw as well)

    - Please show the inside/outside of the snaps of the butt plate, you may have put them inside out.

    - the tip of the mic tips should be white.

     

    I don't believe any of this will affect your submission for EIB, however, its something to look at.

     

    Good Luck with your submission!
