Great work @gmrhodes13 Glen !! .

Congratulation Jessica!! Welcome to the Legion and welcome to FISD.

Amazing News Chris!!! . All of us experienced the same feelings but you're not alone in this journey, FISD is here to help. Meanwhile your kit arrives you can browse the forum, watch some youtube videos about TK amor building process that can be so useful . Looking forward for your BBB day photos.

Welcome back Dave, great to hear you are going to continue your build and that "no one left behind" is for real. @ukswrath Tony well done Trooper.!!!

Hi Scott and thank you for your EIB app. I'll be with you shortly.

Hi Daniela, 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. FOTKs are always amazing and yours is a nice set of armor, most of the items in this area are simple dressing/strapping issues that you could consider to check every time when putting on your armor. Starting from top: Your helmet seems to be riding a bit high in comparison with most seen onscreen. Not a deal breaker for Level 3 by any means, I had this same issue with my Anh Tk due to have excess padding in the top, removing or reducing it will help it ride a bit lower and looks more accurate . Reference Images Your neck seal looks fantastic and although you have the correct number of ribs and shiny finish as required, It should ideally have the zipper closure in the front. Reference Images Your ab belt looks to have some misalignment front a rear. This could be solved by tightening a bit or by adding some velcro behind it . Esay fix! Reference Images Reference Images Looking at your TD from the side, there's a noticeable gap between your TD and the backplate that you may want to make some adjustment to reduce it. Reference Images We are suggesting trimming your cod and posterior plate to better reflect the angle as seen in TLJ. Note in the reference images that the bottom part is thinner and actually curves underneath. Reference Images Reference Images Rotating thighs inwards would avoid the inside seams can be seen, it will also reduce the black area between the thighs and cod as well as move the thigh away from the posterior plate as they appear to be hitting on the rear. Reference Images *************************************************** 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. Something to be aware of is that the tops of your forearms have a curve (as seen in TFA) rather than a slight angle as seen in TLJ Reference Images It looks like your TD mount and TD plate are one piece, and although not specifically mentioned in the CRLs (not yet) they must be 2 separate components. Reference Images I love those FOTK fantastic looking blasters, sharp lines, working lights, amazing. unfortunately yours has some details seen in TFA not in TLJ. A rectangular "D-ring" must be present, and both it and the mount need to be white. Reference Images Another small detail that is missing from your weapon is the presence of a light mount on the barrel also known as Picatinny (Pic) rail . You can find it online on several types and sizes Reference Images And that's it, Daniela ! Congratulations for a great set of armor and we are confident that you can give a couple of steps more a get Centurion level soon !

Congratulations for your BBB day Bryan !!!! looking forward for your building thread. Remember, we are here to help.

Welcome to the ranks Trooper!!!!

Hi, welcome to FISD. Good luck with your project and looking forward for your advances. Post tons of photos ask questions. Measure twice, cut and glue once. Cheers.

Hi Darren it a bit weird thing, usually it takes about a week to receive the email confirmation. Have you check the spam file in your email account? If so, contact your garrison. Where are you located?

I'm still laughing it looks like me when making a review.

Hi Daniela, I'm starting your review now. Cheers.

Hi Rob, great work filling those gaps. before attaching the ammo belt be sure to glue the back cover strips to have to correct support. cheers .

Wow amazing, Congratulations Trooper !!!

Done,

Congratulations again Sebastian. Let's celebrate!!!!!!!

Looks good. Thank you. Remember "Measure twice, cut once.

Great work Mark. Sniper knee is always a challenge . Would you mind to post photos of the posterior side of the Shins and Thighs please? I would like to see the alignment and mobility cuts if they are present. something like this. cheers also consider the following chart when installing the thigh ammo belt> and the rivets correct position

Hi Dan Welcome to FISD. Good luck .

Hi Jim, welcome to FISD. Congratulations for your BBB day and build started. Keep your own pace, don't hurry. Feel free to post all your questions, post photos . We are happy to help you make your dream come true and that you enjoy to share a great time with your son. Cheers

Good luck Trooper, looking forward for your BBB day Photos

Maybe we are always on guard

Troopers !!! The time has come....1 Spot Left. Last Approved TK90277 Will . Surfintrooper. #999

Hi Will, 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. *************************************************** Let's start : Looking at the reference images , your shoulder bells can rotate inward a bit to get a better look. Reference Images Your left biceps alignment is perfect, the right one should be turn a bit to center the seam line. Reference Images We are suggesting to trim your Inner yokes a bit to avoid the excess showing in both sides Reference Images There's a noticeable gap between your TD and the backplate that you may want to make some adjustment to reduce it. Reference Images Also with your TD, for more screen accuracy it should have a separation between mount and plate Reference Images May be this should not be noticeable, but you could give a hand to smooth out the rim on the TD end-cap, as you can see it has a couple of rough areas Reference Images Most of the time this is a dressing issue, but your belt could be raised a bit closer to the ab section. Reference Images vv We noticed that your black pouch is a bit angled downwards, could use some stiffening and straightening... easy fix! Reference Images Your right thigh is touching the cod section and both are a bit close to the cod area. We suggest moving them down a bit. This will give you some more movement and more accuracy too. Reference Images Another dressing issue we noticed and easy to take care of is to center the knee plates as per the reference images below. Reference Images You will need to move your spats just below the black ankle rectangles. Something to consider each time you put on your armor. Reference Images Looking more in detail, there is some excess material (mold lines) on a few of your armor pieces which could be trimmed off. Moving on with your blaster and pistol, there are some small details that can be improved to give your weapons a better look : F-11D screw could be painted black and recessed also white circle paint black Reference Images The front emblem is not complete and too large Reference Images One last detail to give your Blaster a very great look is to add some Texture to your grip and de front handle. One possible solution would be using some Rubber Textured Gun Grips Material Sheet . Reference Images *************************************************** 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. If you decide to go up (as we hope you will),for Centurion level there are just a few adjustment you will need to do : CRL L3 :Ideally, the neckseal shall have 11 ribs. The neckseal has a glossy finish. This will need to replace the neck seal for a more accurate one. Reference Images CRL L3: A support tab extending from the outside top arch of the yoke shall be present. The support tab should be of a sturdy material, white in color This is possibly a challenging improvement, but we are sure you can deal with and go on . CRL L3: Gaskets shall be made of rubber. Fabric gaskets are not acceptable. Yours appear to be fabric gaskets, so they will need to be replaced for the next level ones. Reference Images CRL L3: Working lights and working front torch are required. For level 3, your E11 blaster will need to be upgraded or replaced for one with working lights. Reference Images And finally, for Centurion Level, it will be needed to smooth the print lines that are not permitted. That's all Trooper, Welcome to the EIB 1000, and keep on Being a Bad Guy Doing Good!! Congratulations !
