PGHtrooper21 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Looks good. Is it me or does the Grey paint need to be moved ofer to the left a bit on your ears. Also the cover strip on the top of the left thigh, needs shortened. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Looking good, Pete! I noticed a few things that may need to be addressed, but great job, (especially on that blaster)!! Like Andy said, it looks as if the outside piece of your right thigh is a little longer than the inside piece, which is causing the cover strip to overlap the top. Also, your sniper knee plate seems a bit low to me. It looks as if your calf may be too high, overlaps the thigh, and might need to be trimmed at the bottom in order to make room to raise it up, but I would get a second opinion on this.

gazmosis[501st] Posted August 31, 2015 Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Hey there, Pete!!! Thank you for your application to Expert Infantry. We have some things to cover so let's get to it!!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been posted and your armor contains all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry!! Congratulations and Welcome to EIB!! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section, I will discuss the observation of your fellow troopers along with my own comments. If there are any suggestions for improvements or changes that may affect an application, I will specify on those. First, brilliant photos. Crystal clear!! I love to see pics that can showcase a wonderful set of armor like this. I want o give kudos right away for mounting your left side, vertical rivets in the proper location away from the seam line. You needed that little bit of extra plastic they leave and you used the proper placement rather than the "suggested" location they have the dents for. Thank you for honoring this detail! Congrats on the hand painted details. The outlines could use a bit of evening, but nice work all together. Since we are on the subject of your helmet, I believe the overall look of your bucket could be improved by opening the eyes a little more. Just to compare to this RS helmet with the eyes opened a bit further than yours: Both Andy and Joe touched on a design flaw that goes all the way back to the beginning of RS. Here is a shot of the thigh they took their molds from and as you can see, the uneven top was on the screen used thigh:I have seen many people who REALLY wanted to even that down but didn't feel comfortable molding a new return edge or didn't have the tools to do so. I experienced the same thing on this build and repaired it.: If you get your suit built by RS, uneven is the way it will come. I will not suggest any change here. As for the mention of your sniper plate, well....congratulations for getting it attached!! Snaiper plates seem to the Achilles heel in most builds. So many people have so many different sized calves and that is what affects the fit of one sniper plate compared to another. Now, I do agree it can be moved up slightly and the rear portion trimmed as I suggested with the red lines. Centurion Suggestions: If you decide to take on any of the suggestions above, just make sure your Centurion pictures are changed from the EIB ones to new ones. Great work!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseSwampy[TK] Posted August 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2015 Thank you!<br><br> I have my induction troop in a couple of weeks. Once that's done I'll implement the suggestions you have made and look towards centurion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
