Oh boy… all the pictures are mixed up… sorry for the mess… The pictures were way too large to be posted here so I had to reduce them and I'm not the best in doing this!

Hey Martin thanks for your patience, Andrew or myself will be with you shortly. While you wait can you post photos of the thigh ammo belt connection and close up of the Thermal Detonator clip connection. 

 

Thanks

Hey Martin we have another request, it appears your blaster does not have a charge handle. This needs to be added before we can move forward.

Great job on your build, Michael!  Charging handles can be a bit difficult to find, but I can send you a free one made from black resin that you can attach to your E-11 if you will pick up the postage.  Also, (it may be the camera angle), but the connectors you are using to attach your thigh ammo pack look a bit large.  Are they 5/16ths head type?  If not, I can also throw in 2 bifurcated (split) or single cap (screen accurate) rivets to replace those with.  Both are 100% acceptable at EIB and Centurion.  PM me if interested.

Holy cow… my heart is bleeding. My cocking handle was broken and I didn't notice it! I was shocked when I saw the pictures with your comments. Luckily, I did find it in the bag I'm caring my stuff, so I put it back with some glue but I'm afraid it'll be very fragile… I've attached three pictures to show the handle!

As for the rivets, if you talk about the size of the head, no, it is not 5/16… I thought it was the size of the shaft and not the head. Will try to correct it but I'm scared the hole will be too big for the smaller head.

Hey Martin thank you for your patience and EIB application. Also, thank you for adding the charge handle and posting updated photos.

Let's take a look. 
CRL and EIB Application Requirements:
All the required submission photos have been posted. Beautiful job on your armor build:duim:. Andrew and myself would like to welcome you to Expert Infantry :salute:

 

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. We have a few areas to go over here so get to it. Starting at the top and working our way down your helmet has a few areas we'd like to talk about. 

The tube stripes should be roughly a #2 pencil width from the side of the face. We also noticed a couple of stripes are either under the ears or bunched up near the frown. Though they don't look bad, either less strips or more evenly spaced would make the area look more uniform.

Lastly with the helmet, the left trap outer paint line doesn't follow the return edge. Were suggesting you revisit this area.

Your shoulder covers should technically have more of an arc following the contour of the back plate. Reshaping them should do the trick.

There should be minimal gap between the shoulder bells, chest and back plates.

Centurion Suggestions:
In this section we prepare you for Centurion. If there were any areas of concern they would be discussed here. The only area of concern is the drop box alignment. According the the CRL they are to be aligned with the outer most edge of the waist ammo belt. Simply gluing the drop box strap to the cloth belt usually remedy's this issue.
