captsafe66[Admin] Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Looks great T.J.!! The only thing that may be an issue is the fasteners on the sniper plate, the CRL does state: Ideally there should be no visible rivets or brads used to secure the sniper plate to the left greave. It is up to Mathias. Good Luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 The only thing that may be an issue is the fasteners on the sniper plate, the CRL does state: Ideally there should be no visible rivets or brads used to secure the sniper plate to the left greave. Also the fitment is not aligned properly it should follow the ridge underneath, also the ammo belt on the other knee is too high up, should be riveted in top corner and aligned with the ridge on the side. Good luck with approval. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DudeSidious Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I dont think your back plate is ment to over lap your kidney plate and im fairly sure there shouldnt be strap joining your chest and back plate together. good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuteman Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I really don´t want to start another FX discussion..... but man..... Those thighs look horrible in the back. You already changed the chest and back plate, why not change the thighs too? FX for EIB, okay, but for Centurion... sorry, but I simply don´t see a mixed suit with FX parts on the same level as a full suit of e.g. T/MC, AP, TM or RS. My 2 cents.

Hunterhwt Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) I dont think your back plate is ment to over lap your kidney plate and im fairly sure there shouldnt be strap joining your chest and back plate together. good luck. that is some over lap a small bit also might be pack moving it a bit but the CRL states -Back plate shall have no, or minimal overlap of the kidney plate.thanks for your luck , thanks brother Edited March 4, 2013 by Hunterhwt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmosis[501st] Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) You also might want to include a picture of the neck trim on the helmet since "s" trim is required. The shoulder straps should NOT be attached at the back with velcro. They need to free float. Side split rivets?? That crotch rivet looks huge to me. All these observations may seem a bit harsh...don't take it too personally..but this IS centurion here. Centurion is a level where "close" just won't cut it. This level has always been very hard to achieve with FX anything. Edited March 4, 2013 by gazmosis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clamps[TK] Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Best of luck with your application. I hope that you can work through any of the suggestions noted above. An observation through reading the CRL this morning, I came across this, which may put a snag in the approval as well: The Minimag PLT missile launcher is required for Centurion Status. Missle launcher shall closely match the video game reference (Battlefront series), including scope on the left side, stock, and pistol grip.

Locitus[Admin] Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 There is no change that let's you pass without the rocket launcher. Mark's approval was a mistake on my part but it's too late to revoke it.Aside from that issue, there are numerous quality issues in terms of finished results, and poorly executed details that lead me to say that this isn't happening. On top of that is the matter where there is a severe lack of photos depicting the required details (helmet decals/paint for example) as well as the banishment of FX parts in centurion applications.Sorry to let you down, and I'm sorry to sound so hard, but there is just no easy way to say it.
