  2. I think this is a collateral damage due to the covid thing. Many of us are dealing with just the same : more TV, food, less activity. There's no way back Trooper keep it up
  3. Hi Matthew, welcome to FISD. Glad to read a new Imperial Stormtrooper and a Dream come true is on the way!! looking forward to see your BBB day photos !! RS is a great choice congratulations.
  4. Congratulations Shawn, Well done Trooper !! Next Stop Centurion. !!!!
  5. Thanks David. @justjoseph63 will be with you shortly. Almost there Trooper.
  6. just right David, so fast response thanks. Just noticed a detail that is also needed to fix for your Hovi Mix Tips according to the CRL for level 2: L2: ... Screens used shall be of a wide type mesh, with the rim of the mic and the inside white or painted white. Reference Images It looks like yours are white inside but needs to add a bit white paint to the rims. easy fix.
  7. Hi, David, just the top border as Joseph pointed will be ok. Good luck Sir.
  8. Keep on counting down Troopers , Last approved EIB #994 TK 18034 Dave. Only 6 spots left to go.
  9. Hi Dave, 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 by the Helmet: It seems like you have a bit of extra return edge around your eyes, especially up . To give it that menacing Stormtrooper sight you may want to trim it a bit. A few minutes of sanding or with a dremel should clean it up nicely. Reference Images This looks like a dressing issue , As you can see in the sections marked, Your sides are overlapping showing a noticeable gap , you may want to check the strapping adjustment to close it a get a better look. Reference Images Your belt is on an angle, also nearly covering the bottom ab button and it should be just "almost touching" , not a deal breaker but you can take note when dressing up. Reference Images Onto your canvas belt, some troopers prefer the weathered look which is fine, but we're suggesting you give your belt a bit of a haircut to trim off some of the extra threads. Reference Images We are suggesting to bring your thighs down a little so your shins can come down also and have a better fit by reducing the gap at your knees, also will let the to rest better over your boots. 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. CRL L3: Ab button paint shall not extend beyond the bottom of the actual raised button. The paint on your Ab plates sticks out a little from the raised edge of the buttons. CRL L3 :Abdominal and Kidney Plate align horizontally at top This is likely just a dressing issue, but your ab and kidney left side rivets are misaligned . You can also consider adding or adjusting strapping to keep them better aligned. Reference Images CRL L3: Canvas belt must be firm/sturdy in appearance. No creasing or sagging. The canvas belt looks as if it is fairly good as worn, but the wrinkles can not be present for L3. Mine is an RWA too and what I always do is to tighten it when dressing up for trooping. Reference images CRL L3: The blaster may have minor weathering or base metal exposure however, T-tracks and grips shall have the appearance of black plastic. Finally in this section, we have your blaster It appears that there are some silver showing on your blaster grip, there are a couple of areas under the T track on the other side and around it front handle, perhaps not enough paint coverage. Reference Images The scope rail is a little bent Reference Images And that's all . Congratulations for your great looking set of armor and looking forward for your Centurion application soon.

  12. Hola Rubén, gracias por tu aplicación para EIB. Quisiera solicitarte que por favor " pegues" las fotos directamente en el. Post. Para ello das un click a la. Imagen que vas a incluir y luego en la ventana siguiente seleccionas el botón "Copiar" de la opción "Direct Link" y luego simplemente lo "pegas" directamente en tu aplicación. Cualquier consulta que tengas me avisas. HI Rubén thanks for your EIB app. Please use the Direct Link from Imgur to paste the images directly into the post. Any questions, just let me know. Cheers
  13. Hi, both Armor sets are great, both vendors have great communication and service. Mine is RWA and no issues. cheers
  14. Hi Peter, welcome to FISD. Take a look to this post that can be helpful on Return Edges Let us know if you need more help.
  15. Hi Craig In my experience, making new holes and filling the old ones with ABS haven't cause any issue with cracking or something like that. I would recommend to make some test first with a piece of ABS , once you feel confidence with the procees, you can do the fix. I have another tip , I have recently used for this fix : 1- Glue a little circle of ABS behind the old hole to give some support (I have used " Zap a Gap" glue for fast dry.) 2- Fill in the front of the hole with another small ABS circle 3- Apply a bit abs paste if needed just to fill any minimal gap. 4- Sand a bit with a super fine sand paper and Polish with Car polish to give some shinning or glossy finish. Hope this can help.
  16. Congratulations Trooper, welcome to the ranks !!
  17. Welcome to the Legion Shawn, What a great story ! consider it your first Trooping and I'm sure all of us in the FISD feel happy for you Trooper!! Enjoy Being a Bad Guy Doing Good

  19. Hi Craig welcome to FISD. You did great in search, read first . Looking forward for your first photos when your armor arrives. We are here to Help.
  20. Hi Ian , welcome to FISD . looking forward for your photos when the armor arrives.
  21. Hi Dave. in order to proceed with your application, we need you to make an small adjustment to your helmet's teeth area. There's a bit excess of paint tht needs to be removed. CRL for basic states: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. Reference Images Five minutes with a toothpick or cotton swab with mineral spirit or paint remover (Non Acetone) can do the trick. Thank you.
