humperdingle Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Great build Is that acrylic capped or standard ABS? Do you mind if I ask how tall you are? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troopacoola[TK] Posted December 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 (edited) Hi mate. It's standard 1.5mm abs. I'm 5'10" Any reason for asking? Marc Edited December 19, 2016 by CTID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Hi mate. It's standard 1.5mm abs. I'm 5'10" Any reason for asking? Marc Just to get an idea of the fit. I'm 6ft, and kinda at the upper end of the height level, before extended shins are required. I have a pair of extended shins already from Ross, as they colour-match with my SDS kit. Haven't trooped with them yet, though, as I still need to trim here and there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverdollar22[TK] Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Looking good but you need a picture of the D-ring on your blaster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted December 19, 2016 Report Share Posted December 19, 2016 Looking sharp, Marc, and I am well impressed with that blaster as well! Looks like you are (hopefully) aiming for level 3, and you are well on your way, brother. If I could offer a few suggestions, they would be to trim down the cover strips on your forearms.. (they should be flush with the edges) and you may need to trim down the small ab button plate cover a bit, (see photo). On a side note, (not that it matters for approval) I would attach a small length of Velcro (the fuzzy side) to the backs of your TD clips. This will keep them from scratching the crap out your butt plate. I see an EIB badge in your near future, and then on to Centurion! P.S. LOVING that double snap system... I swear by it.

Thanks for your kind words and advice Joseph. Yeah, I see what you mean about the buttons and arm covers. If that's the only feedback to work on, I'm happy. Easy fixes!

Sly11[Admin] Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Hey Mark thank you for your EIB application, lets see what we have. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present and your armor displays all the elements required for the Level 2 Badge. Congratulations and welcome to Expert Infantry!! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by us and your fellow troopers. Suggestions made here are to improve the overall look of your armor. If these suggestions would effect an application they will be mentioned in the above or below sections. We are happy to announce, there are no major corrections required, only some very minor adjustment and suggestions. This is a lovely build and your attention to detail is great, so to cap it off, you could bring those shoulder bells in at the top so they are almost if not touching the bridges, you will be near perfect. Joseph has pointed out the cover strips, which we think is a good idea and a very quick fix, and yes the small Ab button plate could be a touch smaller, but that certainly is no deal breaker. Ab button plate detail, as you can see on this screen used suit, the plate is smaller than the area it mounts to. If yours can be removed easy enough, this is just another fine detail taking you even closer to screen accuracy. Centurion Suggestions: In this area we try to prepare you for Centurion, but it looks very clear to us, that Centurion is your goal from the outset. Very nice job on the build and the blaster Marc Congratulations, and hope to see you in Centurion review soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
