Looks very good!! I like the velcro on the Thermal Detonator clips. Do you like the TK409 neck seal? Is it very thick?

In my opinion, should be an easy pass!!

 

Good luck

Your armour looks very good!

 

I do however have a concern with your helmet (good thing you're working on a new one). Your brow trim sits way too high over where it normally would if it was not a resin/fiberglass helmet.

 

This is quite noticeable when looking at it from the side

If you decide to stick with this helmet I would recommend moving the brow accordingly:

Other than the helmet, you look great and see no other obvious issue holding you back right now. :)

Thanks for the comments so far guys, the brow on the helmet is an easy fix so no problems there, and hopefully the new lid should be finished soon. :smiley-sw013:

As for the neckseal I do like it, its not to thick and very comfortable.

 

Here is some pics of my new lid, still a few bits to finish off but nearly there, all decals apart from the tube strips are handpainted.

Yeah, that brow trim is upside down. I cannot approve that. Sorry.

 

While we're at it, I would recommend trimming the eyes out some more on your new helmet. It looks more confused than menacing right now. Unless that is the look you're going for. ;)

 

You're doing good work though. Keep it up! :duim:

One question how much more should I trim around the eyes on my new lid ?

 

Thanks guys :smiley-sw013:

Much better!

 

I think, if you want to you could cut away one "wall" of the brow trim, that normally goes behind the forehead for your casted brow-line. (if you look at it from the top you see the brow is doubled up)

 

Here's a rough illustration of where I think the eyes could be trimmed out a little more. Of course, it's important to go slowly and look at it regularly from a distance to see how it's progressing, whilst you're trimming.

I am however approving you for EIB. Your armor is up to spec and looking great, and your helmet is within acceptable levels, and I think you'll make it even better in no time at all.

 

Good job trooper! :duim:
