Hi Scott, very nice set of armour you have there.

Just one little thing you will need to change and then submit new images for.

The snaps on the butt place and the split cay viret on the cod, look like they are painted white. Could be the lighting I'm not sure.

These need to be unpainted as per the CRL for EI which means you would need to remove any paint from them.

 

Cod

  • A split (bifurcated) or single cap rivet is present on the lower tab (cod area) of the abdomen armor.
    • Rivet does not need to be functional.
    • Rivet on must be brass or silver in color, approximately 5/16" (8mm) in diameter and is not painted.

Posterior

  • Two male snaps are present on the lower center tab of the Posterior Armor.
    • Snaps do not need to be functional.
    • Snaps are silver in color with the bottom of the snap facing outward and are not painted.

    Nice work trooper, a couple of suggestions:

    Andrew already mentioned your cod and butt plate rivet/snaps

     

    Your drop boxes don't appear to be aligned with the ends of the belt

    M2UZWnY.jpg&key=73f17e945b18c9efe888eaa6

     

    Butt plate is flaring out on your left side at the rear.

    Shoulder straps could me event to sit in the middle of the backplate areas

    Appears your shoulder bells are a different lengths in the back image

    Left thigh is just hitting your butt plate

    Right back shin appears to be slightly more overlapped than needed

    Belt is also a little high in the back

    585228608_imageproxy(1).jpg.290c0f3707e8eb0f337d693ff27d1097.jpgm3Wtd5G.jpg?1&key=c84037b4096add7058febfJuwSduC.jpg?1&key=8dc44baaa3db11e30eb5d2cfd32dS.jpg?2&key=0a72f50f08ad2a1a25f665B3vL4VO.jpg?1&key=c2d6b7ea392ef48b796381

     

    Side ab/kidney rivets are a little off line and quite a way from the end of the ab

    There is a dirty section on your belt

    Also there is normally a small amount of belt after the button cover on the end.

    Han snap is a little far from the edge of the ab plate

    boLnGuU.jpg&key=fe31a7b47dafb859e031a55faSMKgHu.jpg?1&key=d082a2ad55d95b68076b78

     

     

    Sniper plate should follow the angle of the shin top ridge. You also appear to have a crack you may want to glue/fill before it gets any worse

    iyvC8Vr.jpg&key=f4914f04d00aeb9355ad6b1aTQSUjK8.jpg?1&key=5c87daba3670a8a36909c8

     

    Thigh ammo strip rivet is normally a little further away (and lower) from the end 

    N1NfGtO.jpg&key=bb0c9ea8e0b02b33f871a57e2pvrAr5.jpg?1&key=8e87fbd8d8c6680b44fc40

     

    ESB blaster should not have counter attached and have correct style scope:  You may also want to check on the CRL for mods for Hasbro blasters 

    • No ammo counter shall be present.
    • Correct style scope.
    •  

    umifeTL.jpg&key=f02fa9708f7b3eb09260d50e

     

    Could not see the straps on your handplates: 

    • If rubber gloves are worn the hand plates are affixed via an elastic strap over the palm.

    BnUOGTk.jpg&key=c53dd6d32f318e3587844383

     

    Detonator end caps do not look straight compared to control panel and gap is a little small

    FWu92NH.jpg&key=62ef19d461ee494733af6119TD%2520measurements.jpg&key=4a8622d4fb23

     

    There are just a couple of areas that the decals don't quite fill on the helmet

    451919157_imageproxy(3).jpg.2ce7c161b92b8e11693a0c09357a6a74.jpg

     

    Ideally the fall of the tube stripes should be forward back///////front, you also have a dented section under the back right ear

    1689163393_imageproxy(4).jpg.0ce4d6c3186df9083eb9f0b595004a18.jpgmolloesb8.jpg

     

     

    Could you also add some other images.

    Inside thigh ammo strip rivet connectors

    Close up of your side ab/kidney rivets (no belt covering)

     

    As I say these are just suggestions, DO's have the final say on your application. Good luck

    Hi there,

     

    Thanks for the replies.

     

    Here's the handplates.

    yceghgA.jpg

     

    The cod and butt snaps are an easy fix, I will just need to remove the paint.

     

    The blaster was modded to the specs of the CRL.

     

    This was an older ANH kit that I got from a fellow member which I converted to ESB.  I was certain that the decals for the helmet were the correct ones. However it does seem like a lot of work to get it up to standard.

     

    Cheers

    Hi Scott , Great ESB looking armor. !!  and we are here to help you to achieve the best accuracy you can be.

     

    In order to continue your review, there are a couple of photos and previous adjustment  that we need you to add.

     

    1-  Close photo of the Chest to Back connection (under the bridges) to see the Fabris/Elastic connection as the crl states for L2

     

    Chest and back shall be connected with a white fabric or preferably elastic strap at the shoulders

     

    something like this 

     

    KsfHsnW.jpg?2

     

     

    2-   Photo of your AB to Kidney left side  connection like this

     

    G6N4ov8.jpg?1

     

     

    3-  Close photo of the inside of the thigh ammo rivets both sides. 

     

    CRL L2:  The rivets used shall be single cap, double cap or split rivets. No pop rivets allowed.

     

     

    like this both sides  N6rGK9n.jpg?2

     

     

     

    Previous Adjustment Needed :  Please , update photos when finished the following adjustment :

     

    1-  CRL L2  Clips shall be attached with slotted type, flat or dome top style screws, and be black (two per clip).

     

    Your TD screws appear to be "Philips type" and you will need to replace then for the Slotted. "Screw driver to work mate!!  "

     

                                                                                                                               Reference Images 

     

    y0bc4By.jpg?1   k2is04H.jpg?1              fzPNp2m.jpg        I2yjVji.png?1                   

     

     

     

     

    2-  As Andrew pointed before:

     

    CRL L2  Cod

    A split (bifurcated) or single cap rivet is present on the lower tab (cod area) of the abdomen armor.
    Rivet does not need to be functional.
    Rivet on must be brass or silver in color, approximately 5/16" (8mm) in diameter and is not painted.

     

    CRL L2  Posterior

    Two male snaps are present on the lower center tab of the Posterior Armor.
    Snaps do not need to be functional.
    Snaps are silver in color with the bottom of the snap facing outward and are not painted.

     

    "The snaps on the butt place and the split cay rivet on the cod, look like they are painted white. Could be the lighting I'm not sure.

    These need to be unpainted as per the CRL for EI which means you would need to remove any paint from them."

     

     

                                                                                                             Reference Images     

     

    4PSR0VD.jpg                                                         8gsMtpn.png?2                          

     

     

    We are sure  this is an easy fix for you mate, a couple of minute with some paint remover (non Acetone) and you're ready.

     

    Cheers, I'll be ready when you are ready Trooper !!   :salute:
