  1. Mandatory Information Armor = Armor Master 2.0 Helmet= Armor Master 4.5 Blaster= Quest Design EIB Thread: Optional Height = 6'1" Weight = 235 lb Boots = Imperial Boots Canvas belt = TrooperBay Hand Plates = AM 2.0 Hard Electronics= Ukswraths hovi mic and fans Neck Seal = Darman Holster = Darman Adjustments from EIB Feedback: Helmet frown, painted the edge after the uncut tooth. Got wire and created new brackets for the chest piece edge that are 1/2 inch longer so the chest sits lower. Added outer edge elastic straps to hold the butt plate flush with the lower back. Tapered the forearms around the wrist by 2cm. Any more and I'd have a hard time getting my hands through. Trimmed the front thigh cover strip to be 20mm instead of 30mm. Used the 2nd belt cover, trimmed the corners less than the first and added the raised rivet covers vs the sunk covers on the old one. AB button plates, square the edges and touch up the button paint. Adjust left forearm to bicep strap a cm or two longer to line up better with right.

  2. Putting a list here to track changes made that were for Centurion. 1. Helmet frown, painted the edge after the uncut tooth. 2. Got wire and created new brackets for the chest piece edge that are 1/2 inch longer so the chest sits lower. 3. Added outer edge elastic staps to hold the butt plate flush with the lower back. 4. Tapered the forearms around the wrist by 2cm. Any more and I'd have a hard time getting my hands through. 5. Trimmed the front thigh coverstrip to be 20mm instead of 30mm. 6. Used the 2nd belt cover, trimmed the edges less than the first and added the raised rivet covers. Vs the sunk covers on the old one. Still to do: 1. AB button plates, square the edges and touchup the button paint. 2. Adjust left forearm to bicep strap a cm or two longer to line up better with right.
  3. Thanks! Should be able to take care of the easy stuff, like extending the frown paint, or adding butt elastic straps, quickly. Some of the others that take glue and trimming might be a while. Lost my workspace for now, but hope I get room to finish it up again. Wife isn't wild about me taking over the kitchen and livingroom. [emoji6] Thanks! Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  4. Alright new front sides and back. Fixed: Shin back cover strips and opening to the inside instead of outside (Note: I had Achilles tendon surgery on my left side so that calf is in fact smaller than my right by a little) New Loop in Chest ABS connection that's larger and adjusted the pull strap so there's no gap. Adjusted forearm to bicep straps to have less wrist showing. Belt straight Thanks! Let me know. Hopefully nothing major left.
  5. Roger that. Should be able to do some more armor on shots after work. I think it'll be where it needs to be now. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  6. Alright, Shins - Swapped the coverstrips and the velcro redone on shins. Opens on the inside now. Chest Gap - made a new elastic loop about a centimeter and half larger. Put it in the center bracket, now chest sits lower and isn't being pushed upwards. Wrist - lengthened the elastic about 2 cm of the bicep to wrist strap. Now wrists line up better. Waiting on shins drying before doing new pics. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  7. Ugh, back of the shins. At least its E6000 so moving the cover strips shouldn't be a problem. Going to make the elastic loops a bit longer along the Ab to Chest. Not sure why, but feels like its pushing the chest up into my neck there. Could sit a little lower. Belt got shoved down on one side while I was tring to get the E11 in the holster. Probably need to holster it before putting the belt on. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  8. Ok new pics with full suit and E11. Fixes: Shorter Strapping in Shoulder Bell to Shoulder. Close that gap. Longer Strap from Shoulder Bell to Bicep to let Bicep sit lower on arm. Trimmed edges of the Belt so they are angled. Blue Ab buttons painted with the lighter blue. E11 Action E11 from Praetorian Blasters Ok think that's it unless you guys need to see something else.
  9. E11 arrived yesterday. [emoji3] Will update with new pics and shots of the blaster this weekend. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  10. Heres the Thigh Ammo pictures and the Sniper knee. Already know the inside of the Ammo pack is a little short, but can't do much about it until I can find a new piece. Tapering in the bottom of the thighs helped a bit. Used to look WAY off. Added all the padding around the sniper knee to keep it from drifting to the outside, which seems to be a common problem. E11 should be here soon, so will another set of full suit and action pics. Adjusted the shoulder bell strap to pull them in more and added slack to let the biceps sit a little further down. Should make the arms a bit more correct. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  11. Pictures wearing them or just the armor pieces off? Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  12. Ok belt edges angled now. Blue buttons repainted. They're lighter in person, but picture still looks dark. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  13. Ah ok, have that one also. Easy enough. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

  18. Probably going to wait till I get either my Praetorian Blasters E11 or QuestProps E11 in first. I know the QuestProps should ship in October, no idea when Praetorian Blasters will. Sounds like they are having some health issues and too many orders.
  19. Woot! Basic approved. Now perhaps onto Expert?
  20. New Photos submitted with Tapered Thighs. Tighter Knee makes the ammo box look more correct, plus it seems like the thigh is more stable and not held up by the girder system so much. Probably could've set the Calf Velcro a bit better, but was in a bit of rush to get the pictures.
  21. Knife worked great. Took off about 5cm from the bottom of the back, and now it tapers really well. Test fitted a couple times with blue tape, and don't think I should go any smaller. Trimmed up the back edge slightly as well for bit better movement with the calves. Drying again with e6000 then will put back in the interior strips after 12 hours. Hopefully ready to do follow up pictures for approval tomorrow night. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  22. So submitted for basic, and looks like I need to redo the thigh slightly to taper it to the knee a bit tighter. I'll search around, but what's the best way to remove E6000 cover strips? I have exterior and interior cover strips I'll have to take off to trim the edges so I can get the taper. Pink lines in the picture.
  23. Fronts were 25mm since its a bigger suit. I'm 6'1" and have pretty big legs so scaled the cover strips slightly larger. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
  24. Ah gotcha. Thsnks guys! Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
