WOW, Tara!  That is one fantastic AP build there, and I'm sure this will be an easy pass for your EIB.   (It's always nice to see such awesome attention to detail). On the forearm photo, (detail below) is that the wrist opening?  If so, I would suggest trimming it down to match the one seen in the second photo below.  After your EI approval, I see a Centurion badge under your name as well in the very near future!  GREAT JOB!  :jc_doublethumbup:

Thank you so much for the feedback!!!! I will be cleaning up the wrist opening tonight and replacing my photo to reflect this :) Thanks for your help during this build and for the rivets!!!! I can only hope centurion status is in my near future - worked hard on the build for a few months!!

Looks great! Was your action shot taken at a different time? The left thigh cover strip looks too long but it looks fine in your other photos.

I thought the same thing, but if you look closely it appears that the top of the inside half got tucked under the box on the ABS belt during this shot.

The action shot was taken during my basic approval photos. I was taking these pictures in the rain and I didn't get a chance to do an updated action shot. Just finished a troop and will get back in to update. I did take that cover strip down a few weeks ago!

Hi Tara thank you for your EIB application. Let's take a look. 
CRL and EIB Application Requirements:
All the required submission photos have been posted. You armor displays and the required components for L2. Andrew and myself would like to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry :salute:. Excellent job :duim:

 

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 let's get to it. Starting at the top, though it is not required for the ears to fit the helmet perfectly your right ear appears to be pulled away enough to expose the mounting screws. We're recommending you revisit this are and make necessary adjustments to close the gap a bit.

Here's a movie helmet reference Photo

Shoulder covers should follow the contour of your armor coming to rest on the back plate. It's recommended you reshape these. Take a look at the reference photos below.

Reference photos.

Next up there should be minimal gap between the shoulder bells, chest and back plates. We're recommending you tighten the connecting straps and possibly remove more lower return edge allowing the bells to move closer to the chest and back plates. From the front they appear to be ok but from the back there's very large gaps. We're recommending you make adjustments as necessary to correct this.

The kidney and ab rivets unfortunately are not in the correct positions. As illustrated in the photo we've provided the upper and lower rivets should reside roughly 15mm from the top and bottom edges of the ab however, we would also like to note the lower area indicated in our illustration was based on the lower edge if it was still in its original position before you repositioned the cod up behind the ab. Very creative we would like to add :duim:. This suggested repair is not mandatory but highly recommended if you choose to shoot for Centurion.

While on the subject of alignment, the Ab and kidney on the right side should be aligned similar to the left. We're sure this is just a photo issue that's easily fixed.

Ab button return edge. On the vertical Ab plate there appears to be some return edge where there should be none. Simply put the plate should be slightly smaller that the area on the Ab that it's glued to. Check out the reference photo we've provided.

Thermal Detonator too long? We're looking at the TD it appears to be a bit too long. It should be roughly 7-1/2" total in length. The end caps also look too wide. The diameter of your tube is a bit smaller then canon yet still acceptable at any level however, it looks disproportionate. We're suggesting you take a look at the reference photos we've provided and make adjustment as needed.

Moving down to the thighs, your cover strips appear to be extending past the armor it self and should be trimmed accordingly, this goes for all cover strips

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 worth mentioning is the forearm return edge at the wrist side. Just a reminder to remove all the return edge.

That's it, beautiful job on your armor build. Hope to see you at Centurion :salute:
