No mocking of falling troopers! I fell so bad I actually popped off my shoulder, it's a miracle my blaster didn't shatter into a thousand pieces.

Runnriottt Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Awesome. Dab of white paint on the bolt heads on your helmet is the only nit pick I have. Cool! Closer to Daetrins Challenge! Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThayNerd[TK] Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Great Looking rig! The only thing I would suggest as Nathan said would be to paint the screw tops on your helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billhag Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Lisa Brilliant set up, it looks fantastic The only things that I can see are as follows The only other thing that I would say is your drop boxes, but because of your height I don't think you can do to much about them. Well done matey, it looks the bizzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8224[501st] Posted December 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 The screws on the helmet are actually just put in the wrong place, the white ones are under the ear cap, haha. I'll swap them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8224[501st] Posted December 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 There you go, three white screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThayNerd[TK] Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I think you are all set for Elite Status. You might want to include a pic of your neck seal to show the ribs. They asked me to do the same thing when I applied for ANH Elite. Your rig looks great Lisa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Yeah - Bill's suggestions are great but do not affect Elite application. I'd also raise the back plate up an inch to cover more of the neck. It's OK for the back and kidney to have no overlap. Great job all around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had that earlier, but when I lowered my chest to be able to nod and turn my head around with my helmet on, the back wouldn't stay in place. So if I raise it, my helmet will be lying on top of my chest plate, making me unable to turn my head around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TK-2416 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Looking great!! You should be Elite in no time! You will be our first female Elite in the Nordic Garrison!! Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007brandony Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 These are such fantastic suggestions! I'm taking notes as I go along. Great job on the armor! An advance CONGRATULATIONS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-8224[501st] Posted December 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Awww, I want to start on a second AP armour, just to make everything perfect the first time. I guess I will go TD with this some time, so maybe in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M.[TK] Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Lisa, Outstanding job on your application. I would agree that the minor changes to the thigh ammo box and belt would be ideal, but are not part of the Elite written standards. Seeing how quickly you made the changes to the screws, I assume the trim will be done be noon tomorrow . Elite Status granted. Please report to Ion Control, as they need a little help cleaning up some poor sap that let the Falcon get away!!! Paul, would you be so kind??? Nice kit, trooper!
