ukswrath[Staff] Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Adrian before we get started you need you to make a correction. It appears the calf cover strips are too long. They should stop just below the upper molded edge as illustrated in the photos we've provided. Please trim this and submit a new photo. Thank you Reference photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukswrath[Staff] Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 Hey Adrian, 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. Thank you for fixing your calf cover strips as requested. With that 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'd like to start off with saying beautiful job on build, very nice work. . We have a few areas to go over here so let's get to it. Taking a look at your helmet first, the frown should extend to the end of the last teeth. We're suggesting you extend the paint as illustrated. Reference photo Next up there should be minimal gap between the shoulder Bells and Chest & Back plates. We're requesting you tighten the upper and lower connecting straps. Reference photos. Continuing downward it looks like the shoulder plates were applied too far down the chest plate or the chest plate connections themselves are too long. Also, the covers are cut too short in the back. There should be roughly 4 to 5 ribs on the Chest plate and at minimum some material extending past the last rib in the as seen in the reference photos. This isn't a deal breaker but if you look at some reference photos you'll understand what were talking about. Reference photos Back plate to kidney gap. There should be minimal gap here also. Try tightening the connecting straps and close that gap a bit. Reference photo Moving on to the Ab section. The vertical Ab button plate we feel has too much material. It's extending out side the raised area beneath it when it should be inside it. Reference photo Waist belt position. The top edge of the ammo belt should be at or just below the lower ab buttons as seen in the reference photo. It would look more correct if it was a bit higher. Reference photos Moving down further to the legs. Though it's acceptable for the sniper knee to be off center your's is a little too much we feel. It's placed too low on the left hand side, we're recommending you reposition it. Reference photos And lastly, now that 3D printed components are readily available we're starting to see more and more of these components come across our screens As convenient and inexpensive as they can be sometimes the lack of details and quality are a negative side effect. In your case the rear scope mount is supposed to be knurled, as illustrated in the following photo. In addition we're recommending cleaning up the lack any rough areas, example - near the "D" ring area is really rough looking and not very accurate. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions:In this section we prepare you for Centurion. If there were any areas of concern they would be discussed here. We have a few areas that will need to be resolved before applying for Centurion if you choose to do so. Starting with the helmet the tears and traps are to be hand painted or decals that look hand painted. CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable): Tears/traps shall be hand painted or use decals that emulate hand painted (with correct ANH TK details). Here's a couple reference photos. Next up there's to be minimal bag between the Ab and Kidney plates. You'll need to reduce the gap in this area. CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable): Ideally there no gap between the abdomen and kidney armor. Reference photo Waist belt drop box alignment. The drop boxes are to be aligned with the outer most edge of the ammo belt. Adjust these as needed. It's recommended gluing the drop box connecting strap to the cloth belt to prevent for moving around. CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable): Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box. Reference photos And lastly overlap construction is not allowed at L3. The calves of your armor are assembled to over lap when it should be butt and joint. The best solution would be to remove the cover strip, trim the armor to fit then reinstall the cover strip so that only half is permanently fix, as seen in the following reference photos. CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable): Lower legs must be constructed using the butt joint and cover strip method. Overlap construction is not allowed. Reference photo Alright that's it, a little bit of work to do but it shouldn't take you too long. Congratulations again on your EI badge. Great job and hope to see you at Centurion. If you have any questions feel free to ask us or anyone here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucnak[TK] Posted April 12, 2018 Report Share Posted April 12, 2018 Congrats on your EIB! Lots of small recommendations for improvement you can chip away at over time, but if you want Centurion, I'm sure you'll get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
