ukswrath[Staff] Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Hey Simon, thanks for you patience and your EIB application. Let's take a look. CRL and EIB Application Requirements:It appears all the required submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays and the required components for L2. Andrew and myself would like to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry . 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. We'd like to start off with saying beautiful job on build, very nice work. Taking a look at your helmet first, there's a couple areas that need a little TLC. Nice work on the hand paint. If we had any suggestions it would be to thicken the lines around all the traps, tears and rear vents. We're also suggesting you revisit the Vcoder outer edges, especially the lower section, it should be more detailed. We've posted some reference photos below yours to give you an idea of what were looking to see. Reference photos. Next up the shoulder bell to chest and back plate gap. Though yours aren't bad, 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. Reference photo After that we have the shoulder plate alignment. Yours appear to be off center a smidgen in relation to the back armor they should be centered on. Take a look at the reference photo provided. Reference photo Chest plate should cover the ab. In the next couple areas we'll talk about if the Ab plate was to be brought up roughly 1" (25mm) it would solve a few issues, first being the chest plate, again it should cover the Ab. Reference photos Kidney to ab alignment. As mentioned above if you were to bring the Ab up it should solve this alignment issue also. Reference photo/s Ab button paint. Similar to the helmet we're asking you to revisit the Ab buttons and touch up the outer lines. Cleaning up the outer lines it would give the area a more uniformed look. Reference photo Legs. The thighs could stand to come up 1/2"-3/4" (15mm-25mm). Also, the shins should be aligned with the thighs. Taking into account your feet are turned outward slightly the shins still appear to be off center quite a bit. There's a few methods mentioned in build sections to help keep them aligned and in place. Reference photo TD clip alignment, though yours are not too bad it's still worth mentioning. The clips should be against the end caps. Reference photo And lastly, blaster details. The Scope should be more black and less brass. A little black weathering should do the trick. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions: In this section we prepare you for Centurion. If there were any areas of concern they would be discussed here. Good news at this time we have nothing to add here. That's it, great job on your armor. Hope to see you at Centurion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-32700[TK] Posted October 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 Thanks Tony! That's awesome to hear I've already started with the abdomen and chestplate. There is some slack in the strapping due to wear and tear, so I have tightened the chest straps and made the chest overlap more. The ab and kidney also aligns better, but I'm not 100 % happy yet. More work is needed. I will also look into your other suggestions. Not sure about the thighs, though. They have somehow shrunk since building them. I'm not sure how -- it is definitely not related to cake each Friday at work -- but they don't fit me as well as they used to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
