WOW that suit looks fantastic! Beautiful job. How comfortable was the backpack?

You're spot on with your self critique Christine. May I suggest ditching the elastic kidney/ab connection and going with nylon for more control. It looks like you have plenty of room to spare around the waist anyways (so jealous). THT

Hey Sven, thanks for your patience and your EIB application. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: It appears all the required submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays and the required components for L2. The DO crew would like to welcome you to Expert Infantry . 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 have a few minor areas to go over so let's get to it. Taking a look at your helmet first, The right ear upper and lower mounting screws should align with the trailing edge of the trap. If you can pull this angle off without damaging your helmet or expose any pre-existing screw holes we're suggesting you make the correction. Reference photo Next, there should be minor return edge material at the eye sockets. Please remove as needed. Reference photo Moving down to the arms. Given your height this area can be difficult to balance out the spacing between arm sections. We feel there's too much of a gap between the forearms and hand plates. To resolve this we're suggesting you drop the biceps minimum of 1/2"+(13mm). This should reduce the gap in question. Reference photo Same situation with the legs but near the knees. We're suggesting you drop the thighs and raise the shins a bit. The goal would be to reduce the gap by a 1/2" (or so. Reference photo Moving back up a bit, as mentioned by your fellow trooper the tops of the Ab and Kidney plates should be aligned. Adjusting the connection straps should resolve this. Reference photo The lower blue button size on the large Ab plate is a bit larger than we expect to see at this level, but by no means a deal breaker. Reference photo And lastly the DO crew feels your waist belt could us a little hair cut, at least to remove some of the longer loose threads . Centurion Suggestions:In this section we prepare you for Centurion. If there were any areas of concern they would be discussed here. The only area in question, and we're certain you probably didn't even know it but the right side shoulder cover strap appears to be missing. Just make sure it's there at Centurion if you choose to apply (that means take new photos). That's it, congratulations again, great job

Excellent, thank you

That is correct

Hey Sven thanks for your submission, before we get started we have a quick question. In your suited up photos and one of the stand alone photos the waist belt appears to be patched at the holster mounts (behind the Chicago screws) however, there's one photo with the belt shown by itself that is not patched. Is the belt patched or has that been fixed? Also, can post a photo of the thigh ammo belt connections inside and out please. Thanks

You're doing good Adi. Just make sure the teeth are proportioned to each side. They don't have to be perfect and once you add some mesh and paint areas your feel are inadequate should look just fine.

Great work so far Lorelei

Awesome job A.J. You've done a fantastic job on your build. Hope to see you at the higher ranks as well

Found ya, alright let's do this John

Agreed

To suggest or avoid? Unless something has changed they still owe people armor that paid last year.

lol where's the love Frank at least throw out a wink emoji

I'm stumped. With the amp you're using you should have no problem drowning out your natural voice. Maybe a more sensitive microphone? I don't know, I wish I had a better answer for you sorry.

Let's not hahaha

It does give it a cleaner look doesn't it. Surprised the movie helmets didn't do this.

Not sure never used it. The Aker 10w can be considerably loud at the higher volume settings, I mean you shouldn't have any issues drowning out your natural voice. Did someone tell you that your amplification system is too weak or is this self diagnosis? Just curious

You may have a naturally louder voice. Nothing wrong with that but coupled with the helmet interior that echoes, what can you do. There may be some a solution not tried yet, what system do you have?

Looking good, shoulder straps (covers) are awesome

Both AM and RT-Mod are specifically designed for larger troopers. AM - [email protected] RT-Mod - [email protected]

Looking good A.J. If shooting for Centurion may I recommend you scale down the vertical Ab button plate. Technically it should be smaller than the raised area it's attached to. Here's a reference photo. As for the scope decal, looks nice. I've also see people take a thin layer of Plexiglas and place it just over the decal giving the illusion of actual glass Keep up the great work
