Great photos Trooper, just a quick fix. : your biceps are on the opposite side , the bicep with the "thumbprint" should actually go on the left side. Cheers

Hi Natali, welcome to FISD. Congratulations for your new armor set. It would be good if you can post some photos to see the main sections to fix. You can use some image host like Imgur and post directly into the thread using the Disrect Link Option.

Jakob's RWA ANH stunt build (aiming for centurion)
TKSpartan replied to Yacorp's topic in ANH Build Threads
Hi Jakob, definitely the Sniper knee is a headache , but not imposible to deal with. It's a "Clamps Squad Mission " lokk at the example photos I attached Additional, you can add a small piece of ABS plastic between the Sniper knee and the front cover strip to fill de gap. hope this can give some idea of what todo. cheers -

ANH Stunt - AP Trimmed - First TK Build
TKSpartan replied to MightyAtom's topic in ANH Build Threads
Hi Mark, They look great, good work. if i can add a suggestion. If you plan to go for the upper levels, which we hope you will, you may want to check the amount of paint on the buttons. According to CRL for level 3. : Ab button paint shall not extend beyond the bottom of the actual raised button. It is a quick fix, you can use a non-acetone paint remover , or if you have surgeon's hands, you can use a pointed tool or cutter. (I have done this last) Reference images Cheers -
Looking Great!! Good luck

Great !!! Congratulations !

TK-61490 Requesting ANH-H TK Pre-Approval [Anovos]
TKSpartan replied to TheRascalKing's topic in Request TK Pre-Approval
Hey Justin , Another great build of yours!! With a quick look , what I could suggest for your future EIB or centurion App, just a few dressing issues to consider . This is very common that the posterior plate overlaps the kidney and also the kidney/Ab overlapping a bit. Another one is the drop boxes alignment Your thighs seems to be a bit high, not a problem at all but You may want to check if you are not experienced some armor bite That's all at this first 'eye' without detailed photos. overall looks great!!! -

Jakob's RWA ANH stunt build (aiming for centurion)
TKSpartan replied to Yacorp's topic in ANH Build Threads
Hi Jakob, you will probably need to trim a bit the forearm form the wrist end (by the way,for L3 there's no return edge at the wrist end) but I would recommend to do it till the end, when you have your final inner clothes to get a better fit. Once you cut it's difficult to restore. Reference image -

TK-3373 Requesting ESB EIB Approval (RS Props)
TKSpartan replied to TK3373's topic in Request Expert Infantry Status
Hi Scott , Great ESB looking armor. !! and we are here to help you to achieve the best accuracy you can be. In order to continue your review, there are a couple of photos and previous adjustment that we need you to add. 1- Close photo of the Chest to Back connection (under the bridges) to see the Fabris/Elastic connection as the crl states for L2 Chest and back shall be connected with a white fabric or preferably elastic strap at the shoulders something like this 2- Photo of your AB to Kidney left side connection like this 3- Close photo of the inside of the thigh ammo rivets both sides. CRL L2: The rivets used shall be single cap, double cap or split rivets. No pop rivets allowed. like this both sides Previous Adjustment Needed : Please , update photos when finished the following adjustment : 1- CRL L2 Clips shall be attached with slotted type, flat or dome top style screws, and be black (two per clip). Your TD screws appear to be "Philips type" and you will need to replace then for the Slotted. "Screw driver to work mate!! " Reference Images 2- As Andrew pointed before: CRL L2 Cod A split (bifurcated) or single cap rivet is present on the lower tab (cod area) of the abdomen armor. Rivet does not need to be functional. Rivet on must be brass or silver in color, approximately 5/16" (8mm) in diameter and is not painted. CRL L2 Posterior Two male snaps are present on the lower center tab of the Posterior Armor. Snaps do not need to be functional. Snaps are silver in color with the bottom of the snap facing outward and are not painted. "The snaps on the butt place and the split cay rivet on the cod, look like they are painted white. Could be the lighting I'm not sure. These need to be unpainted as per the CRL for EI which means you would need to remove any paint from them." Reference Images We are sure this is an easy fix for you mate, a couple of minute with some paint remover (non Acetone) and you're ready. Cheers, I'll be ready when you are ready Trooper !! -
Type of Armor Maker for EIB or Centurion levels
TKSpartan replied to Vader's Wingman's topic in FISD Centurion Requirements
Hi Ted, Actually , EIB and Centurion level is not about the armor maker alone, If you take a look to the Centurion approvals Here You will see that the are different armor makes that achieved L3. When starting building your armor, if you consider the crl requirements in Blue color for L2 (EIB) and Red color for L3 Centurion) you can add all the necessary elements to achieve the Badge . Some makers would need a few more adjustment than others but in essence all are similar. You can read details about EIB and Centurion Leves HERE Hope this can help Cheers -

TK-84881 Requesting ANH Stunt Centurion Status (ATA) (474)
TKSpartan replied to Labaki's topic in Request Centurion Status
Hi Mark, according to the crl for L3 they're optional. Cut-out notches at the bottom of right and left sides of the Kidney Armor are optional. If present, each notch is approximately 22 mm tall and the back of the notch ideally is aligned with the front edges of the Posterior Armor plate.. Cheers
