  1. Agree with Glenn, with experience you can use a Hot gun ar even the induction cooktop or electric stovetop .
  2. Congratulations !!! Welcome to Centurion ranks
  3. hi, looking good . I agree with Glenn, only 2 straps are ok and use Elastic for Chest and back,
  4. Alex, could you please add a couple of photos we missed? 1- Close photo of your Wrist openings 2- Photo of your Boots (tops and sides) Thanks
  5. The right one is perfect Alex, the left one needs a bit trimming and you're golden sir.
  6. Take your time, search is the clue. Good luck.
  7. Congratulations Trooper Welcome to The Centurion 500 Well done !
  8. Hi Alex, before I can continue with your review, an easy and quick fix to your mobility cuts is needed: . Not all troopers seen in the film(s) had them, but those that did had more of a rounded finish. An easy fix with a sand paper or Dremel tool, but be careful not to go below the bottom of the raised ridge. Reference Images Cheers
  9. Congratulations Trooper, welcome to EIB ranks
  10. Hi Scott, and thank you for your EIB application! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry. Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armour. Note that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. *************************************************** Starting from top: It seems like your brow trim is a bit lower than the reference images, we are suggesting to that it be raised a bit to get a better look. Reference Images Looking at your ears sides, we note that the black horizontal anchor-like detail on each side of the ear bar could be a bit thicker as in the videogame references. Reference Images We're suggesting also to increase the width of the stripes on the chest and back plate a bit. There is a small issue on your left forearm. Note that it rides lower than the right one creating a symmetry issue and making the forearm/wrist conecction to be narrower. We think it is just a strapping adjustment,. Leveling up the left forearm an inch or so should do the job and you are going to look awesome. Reference Images Drop Boxes CRL The drop boxes… and are aligned with the end of the ammo belt. This is one of the most common issues we see, but is quite simple to address. The outer edges of the drop boxes must align with the outer edge of the ABS belt. Some E-6000 on the inside strap will take care of this. Reference Image *************************************************** Centurion Requirements; In this section we prepare you for Centurion. Because Centurion photos show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here and additional photos may be required. We try to point out all that we can from what we see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. The blue stripe detail of your helmet looks perfect in the front, but from the back of the helmet, It needs to continue over edges the rear traps with a thin raw lines allowing thetrap lines to be seem in the background as in the references Before After Reference Images Crl: The shoulder bells are considered effectively symmetrical… Moving on the bells of your shoulder, mirroring the left and placing it on the right, there seems to be a difference in shape. You may want to check if they are correct or a cropping correction will be needed. Reference Images AB belt. Crl: The soft belt proper is tightly woven nylon/cordura like/style material or material with a tightly woven nylon/cordura like/style covering. Size is 2.25" (57mm) to 2.5" (64mm) wide. Yours seems to be made from Canvas material as the OT TK’s, and the it must be woven nylon or cordura like material . Also the dimensions must be lower that the regular TK’s and must be between 2.25" to 2.5" wide instead of the 2.75ā€ to 3.25ā€ wide of an OT TK. You will need to address this for Centurion level . Reference Images Canvas Nylon Cordura *************************************************** And that is Trooper, Although it seems a lot of work ahead, you have shown that you can overcome the challenges and we hope to see your application for Centurion soon. Congratulations Again!!!

  15. Hey Justin! Cool set mate.. That's a good question, I think It will depend on how they look after the groove work. I'm sure you're going to find the way to make it to Centurion, you, badges and stars collector!! Good luck with your build
  16. Congratulations!! looking forward for your BBB day photos
  17. Just right Caleb, once you sand the inside , the outside will expand a bit and you will be Ok. Note: trimming more in the front up and down , you're risking the exceed the gums.
  18. Thank you for the updates Alex, I'll be with you Shortly.

  20. Hi Dennis. If I can make some comments about. The pencil marked area for trimming is just right to meet the L3 requirement , Reference Images I would suggest also to reduce the 3 square buttons return edge to make then more flat and move then closer into the belt, as the references.
