After some tweaking and tidying up I achieved EIB. Here’s some of the things I did to get there. 

 

I cleaned up the frown paint paint to keep it only on the teeth. 

 

Replaced the damaged and short brow with a new one from Trooperbay. 

 

I built a 3D printed E-11 blaster.

Now I’m making some changes to work toward centurion. To reach that I’m told I need to close the gap in the shoulder bells and get the shins lower. 

 

To do that I’m trimming the shoulder bells shorten the top and follow the contours of the chest and back plates. 

 

Next day:

Trimmed out the tops and contoured them a little. 

 

This is with the straps reattached ANH hung in place. Once I test fit it to me I’ll know if any more trimming is needed. 

 

I put a piece of Velcro on the boots and inside the shins to keep them down and centered. 

 

I also trimmed out the top rear area like the screen used stunt kits. 

 

Next day:

Both done now. I also trimmed a higher arc I’ve the heels. They don’t get pushed up when walking now. Pushing up sometimes made the backs open up as the narrow bottom area was pushed over the wider calf area. 

 

That takes care care of the gaps that were there (below picture). I’ll be trimming the thighs the same way. This will increase mobility and lessen the stress on the kit when moving  

 

I neatened up the vocoder paint as well.

I advise against that, you have plenty of a gap between the leg pieces and it looks better without those cuts. However, it is your armor and you can do what you want so if proceeding with those cuts be sure they don´t go past the raised edges, you got really really close of cutting to much on the shin. Going past the edges will hold you from reaching Centurion, just a heads up
