You may want to have a read through your EI application, there are some changes which had been mentioned that you will need to do before Centurion approval

Hola Guillermo!

 

Good to see your application. There are a couple changes that will be needed before continuing with your approval. 

 

First, thanks for posting new photos. However, your shoulder bells are sitting too far away in the front (they look fine from the rear). It might be a dressing issue, or you might need to shorten the strapping that is holding the shoulder bells on in order to bring the tops in closer.

 

  • There should be a minimal gap between the shoulder armor and the chest/back plates.

Next, I know you're struggling with the ab/kidney gap, but it's still larger than we'd like to see for Centurion, so we're asking you to try to reduce it furtaher. The gaps in the full-body photos look better than the closeups, so again it might be a dressing issue before you take your photos.

 

Ideally there no gap between the abdomen and kidney armor.

Finally, I think you have corrected it, but can you post new close-up photos of the backs of your thigh armor to confirm that you've filled the gaps?

Hello again!

And again, mostl dressing issues... I think I may have been wearing the armour wrong all along; I found that by wearing the body pieces just a bit higher, everything falls into place better, incluiding the infamous ab/kidney gap.

The shoulder bells were an easy fix as expected: I simply shortened the straps a bit.

And lastly, the gaps in the back of the thighs were filled with repair putty and painted over.

I hope this is it :P:smiley-sw013:

You haven't addressed the vocoder paint

Looking great, and nice job on those fixes, Guillermo!  One thing that concerns me is your helmet height.  It looks to be sitting far higher than "normal", and I am wondering how well you can actually see out it.  In comparing the second 2 photos below, your eyes do not appear to be centered in the eye openings of the helmet, which may affect your ability to navigate safely.  Do you have padding in the top?  Do you find yourself constantly tilting it forward to see?  Removing any padding would help bring it down and greatly increase your field of vision, as well as look a lot more screen accurate. ;)

First of all, thanks for your concern.

As I was writing a response, trying to figure out what was happening (since I thought I could see quite well) I realized that since taking those first photos I have added some electronics to the inside of the helmet, which made me change the padding setup. As you can see (sorry for the quick crappy photo lol), it sits much better now. Most of the padding is on the brow and cheeks, which makes for great visibility, or as great as it can be, as well as hanging much lower.

Hi Guillermo!

 

After a lengthy discussion among the D.O. staff we need one small favor before we can get that badge under your name, sir.  In your EI submission, we suggested that you extend the paint on the second ribs, but that will now actually be a requirement.  The reason being is that is does not match any ESB reference we can find, and it actually is closer in appearance to the ROTJ style as seen below in the reference images.

 

This should take you all of 2 minutes (or less) to touch up, and as soon as that is done we can get that badge under your name, brother!

 

 

                Yours                                                                                                          ESB

Hi Guillermo,


Thanks for your application and for the quick fixes. I'm glad you figured out a better way to wear your armor that closes the ab/kidney gap and also lets your helmet sit lower.

 

CRL and Centurion Application Requirements

All required photos are now in and, after review, we are pleased to welcome you to Centurion! On behalf of the DO team and myself, many congratulations! :duim: 

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly

 

In this area we discuss areas that could benefit from additional improvement. Note that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions

 

We have nothing more to add other than the items that were mentioned in your EIB review. Congratulations again on reaching the rank of Centurion!
