jguerr1[TK] Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I'm sorry, I don't know why I'm not able to post my other images. It keeps saying file too big. I didn't have trouble loading the other images. I'll try to figure out what's wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly11[Admin] Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Looks good. Are you using Photobucket to upload the images? Also have a suggestion for you, but this won't effect your EI app. The sniper plate should align with the ridge at the top of your shin, yours is sitting at the bottom of it. Yes I know they are a difficult thing to align as I had a devil of o time trying to get mine right. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jguerr1[TK] Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Hello, Yes I've been useing Photobucket and resizing the images and nothing seems to work. It says Unload Skipped (This file was too big to upload). Everthing worked fine with the other pictures (same saved images as the others...nothing different).

jguerr1[TK] Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) I posted all the pictures above (sorry for the mismatch photos...tried to put them in order but was not successful). If you need me to add a larger picture of the images just let me know. Thanks! Edited June 28, 2016 by jguerr1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jguerr1[TK] Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 I had the same issue I had to crop the pictures down a lot Same here. I've also had a hard time putting the pictures in order. No matter what I do the pictures come out mismatched. Not sure how to fix it.

ukswrath[Staff] Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Hey Juan welcome to your EI review, lets get into it!! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for level 2. Welcome to Expert Infantry trooper! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. The only area we can see needing some adjustment is to either bring down the ab or raise the thighs. The gap between the two can be reduced a bit. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. This is also where we try and get you in the best possible position for a successful Centurion application. There are a few things that will need change or adjustment as per the Lvl 3 CRL so lets take a look. As Sly mentioned the Sniper knee place will need to come up. Take a look at the reference picture provided. The lower knee plate return edge should closely follow the same line as the shin armor itself. Reference photo For Centurion we'll also need to see images of the lower forearm with no return edge and the left side ab rivets, all six. Reference photos Excellent job on your build Juan. Hope to see you at Centurion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jguerr1[TK] Posted June 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Thank you very much for the EIB! I will make the suggested changes...But I do have a question on the sniper knee plate. I feel the placement that I have is the correct screen version. I looked very closely at the stormtrooper picture you provided (looked at the same pic but a little more clearer) and it seemed to me that the placement was all over the place for each trooper (at close-up look). I provided a picture below of Han and Luke in their TK costumes and the sniper plate placement they have matches the one I have (about a half an inch below). I would like to keep screen accuracy for Centurion level (even if it's not perfect) and would like to know your input on this. Thanks, Juan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukswrath[Staff] Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Well, we generally want to see them more like the illustration that I posted. But even if we used your image Han and Luke's knees are still positioned higher than yours. I should have posted this earlier, forgive me. These lines should follow one another closely. On a positive note, as we always state it's ultimately up to the wearer to decide if they want to go the extra mile. Where your knee is currently placed is a grey area. To be honest if it's superglued to the shin and your run the risk of severely damaging your armor trying to move it, it may not be worth it. Congrats again and see you at Centurion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jguerr1[TK] Posted July 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 Thank you for the info Tony. I agree with you that Han and Luke's knees are higher (even with the lowered sniper knee plate). I will try my best to move them unless if they are super glued to the shin armor (your right...don't want to damage or crack it) and still apply for level 3 with the other changes you recommended. Since it is a grey area I'll leave it up to you guys the experts to decide the outcome. My goal is to get the costume if not 100% screen accurate at least 99.9% accurate. Thanks for the info!
