Nice work trooper, there are a few suggestions you could address before the DO's get here.

 

You will need to swap the holster to the other side for ESB ;) Sniper plate is under your thigh, you may want to add some foam behind the shin so it pushes away from the thigh. Could you post close up photos of your thigh fronts, cover strips look a little off but can't quite see because of the low resolution of your photos. Belt should sit just under or touching the lower ab button

Your left bicep has dropped below your shoulder bell. You have a gap between the backplate and kidney on the sides. Shoulder straps should be centered at the backplate.

It's a little hard to see from your images as they are a bit small and not a great resolution but just checking your the back of your shins should close outside over inside so the opening isn't seen from the outside. Also a large gap between your right bicep and elbow. Should bells should have the same gaps on each side. You may also want to add some scrap ABS plastic behind the gaps in the bottom of your thighs.

There shouldn't be a gap between the brackets and the end caps on your detonator. The right end cap has been trimmed a little rough. You may also want to check the length.

Corners of your plastic belt are too large, they should be cut to meet the width of the belt. You also have a gap between the kidney and the butt plate which with need to be closed. Belt boxes have to align with the end of the plastic belt section. There is also quite a lot of excess material left on the sides of the chest and back plates.

Appears you may have your side rivets in the wrong positions

8Ldetail.JPGlmE2x8G.jpgILNmZFM.jpg

 

Helmet brow trim is not straight and you should see some white between the eyes and brow trim. Ears are very thick on the top sections. Hovi tips should have a white rim. Vocoder paint is a little wobbly in places. Also appears your hovi mesh may be a little bit small

9helmfront.JPG13hovi.JPGorigESBpatch01.jpgrmMCj1s.jpg

 

Right ear is a little too far forward on the base, should be angled backwards

11helmrside.JPGzaxtnQx.jpg

 

Ear has quite a large gap all the way around and the top section of the ear is quite thick, normally a small gap on the lower section is allowable but not the top of the ear

You could move your shoulder straps a little further down on the chest, looks like you just have the large tab and one small attached, ideal is 1 larger tab and 4 to 5 smaller tabs

There are quite a lot of photos you are missing you may want to check this list as well as other EIB applications

 

Some photos required

Close up of both sides and inside connectors of your thigh ammo strip

Close up of the rear of the shins

Close up of the sniper plate, front and both sides

Close up of the blaster D ring

Close up of your ab/kidney side rivets

Close up of ab "Han" snap (top right corner)

Close up of cod rivet.

Close up of butt snaps

Close up of your ab buttons

Close up of your boots

Close up of the S trim around the base of your helmet

Close up of your ear screws, top and bottom

Interior strapping

 

Good luck with approval

Hi Victoria, and thanks for your submission!  As Glen mentioned, we need the photos he listed as well as a few more things before we can get started.

 

1.  Close-up photo of the frown.

2.  Close-up photo of the tube stripes.

3.  Interior strapping pics, especially the side ab/kidney and back/kidney/posterior plate connections.

4.  Close-up photo(s) of hand plates/gloves and how they are connected.

5.  Close-up of thigh ammo pack/connection (both sides).

 

As per the CRL for Expert Infantry level

The frown mesh must be of the wide type and the rims painted white.

Holster is worn on the right side.

 

Thanks, and we look forward to seeing the photos!

If making changes to the TD, you might want to rotate it so the panel is facing out. I had to make a similar change to mine.

TD = Thermal Detonator

Should be rotated downwards so more of the panel can be seen

Looks like everything has been mentioned. 
I know it is quite a list, but im sure with a little effort you can easily knock out that list.

 

As far as the ears, it looks (and it may just be the picture) as if both of the ears are "right." Please confirm. Sometimes some manufactures provide 2 sets of each ears (as practice/backup) and you may have installed both rights.


Please confirm. That way it fits properly.

 

Good Luck on your updates/submission.
