illusionz_09[TK] Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Damn bud, your boots are beat!!! lol my only critique would be on your black rank stripe on the ear. Make it thinner and even on both sides. Good Luck on your approval... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 Looking great, Matt! SUPER nice jobs on those shims, sir. (Looks like those boots have a LOT of trooping time)! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrMattTaylor[TK] Posted September 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Many thanks for the feedback, i will take to the ears this weekend. The shims added ALOT of time to the build. Maybe i should have just dieted .... Looking forward to more input/comments and maybe a path to centurion, who knows! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMattTaylor[TK] Posted September 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 and as for the boots - i think warm weather + me + armour are boot destroyers. maybe a TD is in my future... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukswrath[Staff] Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hey Matt thanks for your patience and thank you for your EIB application. Let's take a look. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: As mentioned by Joseph nice work on those kidney shims. Looks like all the required submission photos have been posted. Andrew and myself are pleased to announce you armor displays all the necessary components to qualify you for Expert Infantry. Congratulations Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: As you know as we get to the higher levels of accuracy we look a little deeper. In this section we'll review observations made by either your fellow troopers or Andrew and myself. 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 minor areas we'd like to mention, starting with the helmet, great job BTW. It appears the left side tube stripes are wider than the right. This could be a photo issue, if not you might want to trim the outer edge. Reference photo Moving down, the shoulder bells should be tight against the chest and back with little gap. We're suggesting you tighten the upper strap and maybe remove the lower return edge to bring it closer also. Reference photo Next up there should be very minimal gap between the kidney and back and posterior plates. This could be a simple strapping adjustment. Reference photo TD off center. Obviously a photo issue and easy fix. When you get a moment please remove the MFG pipe details. Though no one will really see it's not screen accurate, or canon. Reference photo And finally we noticed your sniper knee was resting against your leg in the photos. We're suggesting you trim this back quite a bit increasing the space and prevent armor damage, or better yet bodily harm lol. Reference photos Centurion Suggestions: And in this section we prepare you for Centurion. The only areas of concern here is keep in mind at Centurion there's to be little to no gap between the Ab and Kidney. You're possibly over the required gap limitation for this area. A simple strap adjustment should do the trick. Reference photos That's it. Again, very nice work on your build and hope to see you at Centurion.
