gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted November 11, 2024 Report Posted November 11, 2024 You will need to add your photos via a free online image host as you will fill your attachment allotment very quickly, many of us use Imgur, open an account then upload your images there, then copy and post the links from Imgur into your post here. How To One other thing, it looks like you may have over trimmed your large abdomen plate, should have a plate around the base Quote

Example Another issue I've just noticed is your shins, they should closer outside over inside so the closure can not be seen from the outside. Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted November 13, 2024 Report Posted November 13, 2024 @Brent Seymour Hi Brent, I will be doing your EIB review. If you could please put the photos directly into the application, rather than just links to the photos, that would be great. To do this, instead of selecting image link from Imgur, sel;ect direct link and paste that onto your application. It will then show the actual photo instead of a link. Thanks Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted November 13, 2024 Report Posted November 13, 2024 May need to check your detonator measurements, control panel looks too long, small gap between it and the endcaps 1 Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted November 14, 2024 Report Posted November 14, 2024 Hi Brent @Brent Seymour, Thank you for embedding the photos, it makes things alot easier for reviewing but also as future reference for other troopers. Before going ahead, could you please add the following photos for me? 1. Close up of the wrist side openings of the fore arms. Like the photo below 2. A photo showing the flexibility of the hand plates like the one below 3. A close up of your abdominal armour button plates. 4. A close up of the ab and kidney rivets. 5. A photo showing the measurements of your thermal detonator as mentioned by @gmrhodes13 above Quote

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted November 16, 2024 Report Posted November 16, 2024 You may wish make a few adjustments before the DO's begin reviewing. Front forearms trim all the return (L3 centurion) No lower edge/plate on large ab plate, this can be fixed by cutting a plate slightly larger, glue on to large ab plate, then fill join with ABS paste, sand and polish. Also trim smaller ab plate Your gaps are too small, look at the gap between endcaps and control panel, the control panel is too wide. The total length is approximately 7.50" (190.5mm Side rivets are not in alignment abdomen to kidney (L3 centurion issue) 2 Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted November 22, 2024 Report Posted November 22, 2024 Hi Brent, Thank you for your patience while we reviewed your EIB application. Your armour looks great but there are a few things we are going to need to be fixed to get it to EIB level approval. Lets start at the top and work our way down. Please feel free to reach out or ask questions if you need to. Everyone is here to help and wants to see you succeed. Helmet Your helmet looks great, but we are going to ask for an adjustment to your vocoder paint job to make it look more screen accurate. This should be a pretty quick and easy fix. References Shoulder straps Your shoulder straps appear to be uneven when viewed from behind and from the side, the right side has the proper curve to allow it to sit flat on the back armour plate but the left side is a bit too straight. A bit of time with a hot water bath will help to curve the left side to match the right side. References You may also consider trimming all or a portion of the large tabs off the back of the shoulder straps. This is not mentioned in the CRL but is highly recommended for a more screen accurate look. References Posterior Armour Your posterior armour is dropping away from the kidney armour in the front corners and is flaring out at the sides. We would like to see it hug your body a bit closer and follow the line of the back armour. Some strapping in the area shown below should correct the issue . A bit of a warm water bath may also be needed if the kidney armour needs some shaping. References Many troopers have opted for V tabs to help hold the alignment between the posterior and kidney armour pieces. Thermal Detonator Your thermal detonator control panel is facing a bit too much upward instead of to the back. This can be corrected by carefully unrolling the lower portion of the clips to roll the thermal detonator down. CRL L1: The white control panel raised ribbed pad faces the rear, with the controls/round washer style detail closest to the right end cap. References We will also need you to make some size adjustments to your thermal detonator as the overall length as well as the length of the control panel are about 2 cm too long. You can achieve this by carefully removing the control panel and trimming it in the area shown to remove about 20 mm. For the overall length, if you remove the end cap on the side opposite the circle detail on the control panel and trim the grey pipe back about 20 mm, this should allow the end cap to now cover the hole in the pipe from the bracket and make the detonator the correct size. Lower leg armour CRL L1: The total length is approximately 7.50" (190.5mm), End caps are approximately .78" (20mm)in width. References The screw type attaching your clip to the thermal detonator are not the correct type and should be changed for the correct ones. References Lower leg armour Your shins are closed in the back with the inside portion overlapping the outside. This should be reversed as mentioned above by @gmrhodes13 References For your Sniper knee plate, the edges along the back portion should be angled and not curved for a more screen accurate look. This should be a fairly easy trimming job. References Blaster Your blaster details look great but unfortunately there are still some print lines visible. We will need you to do a bit of sanding and refinishing before approving you for EIB. CRL L2: 3-D printed blasters can not contain visible print lines, and must be sanded smooth for a more realistic appearance. Your magazine is a bit longer than those seen on screen. Removing the end plate and trimming it back, should correct the issue. For 3D print files, the files on thingiverse and printables created by Bryan Roller have a shortened version of the magazine that can be printed. In addition, it appears that your Hengstler counter is positione a bit low as it appears to be touching the rail of the folding stock. References 1 Quote

Brent Seymour[TK] Posted March 9 Author Report Posted March 9 (edited) Thermal detonator shortened to correct length and cover plate also shortened. Correct screws replacing old ones. Edited March 9 by Brent Seymour Quote
Brent Seymour[TK] Posted March 9 Author Report Posted March 9 Blaster with ammo counter raised. Magazine shortened and 3D print lines filled and smoothed. Quote
Brent Seymour[TK] Posted March 9 Author Report Posted March 9 Full armour front. RHS LHS Rear Fixed corners of sniper knee plate. Added strapping to keep kidney plate in line. Re-assembled shins so overlap of closure on the correct inner facing sides. Heated and re-did shoulder strap so it sits and looks better. Painted voxcoder ribs to be more accurate. Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted April 14 Report Posted April 14 @Brent Seymour hi Brent. sorry we missed the update post a few weeks back. I will reactivate the application take a look at it and get back to you ASAP. Quote
Doggydoc[Staff] Posted April 14 Report Posted April 14 Hi Brent, it is great to see you back at working towards your EIB certificate. I have looked over your updates and you have made great progress towards your approval. There are just a few more things to fix and we will be there. I am going to post from the original review to go over each of the requested corrections. 1. Vocoder paint correction looks good. 2. Shoulder strap adjustments You have corrected the lift on the left shoulder strap and evened out the length of the straps but the right strap is now shifted outwards. This should be an easy fix as it appears you do not have the small white elastics that are required for centurion approval holding the back of the straps in place. Simply adding these will likely correct the issue. Reference 3. Posterior Armour flaring out at the sides. This has been corrected. 4. Thermal detonator Control panel size has been corrected. Screw type is now the correct one. We just need you to adjust the positioning of the control panel so it faces backwards. Your thermal detonator control panel is facing a bit too much upward instead of to the back. This can be corrected by carefully unrolling the lower portion of the clips to roll the thermal detonator down. CRL L1: The white control panel raised ribbed pad faces the rear, with the controls/round washer style detail closest to the right end cap. References 5. Lower Leg Armour Closure has been corrected to outside over inside Just watch when dressing to ensure that the inner and outer parts of the shins are aligned. Reference Sniper knee plate shape is corrected and is good. 6. Blaster You have done a great job removing print lines and adjusting placement of the Hengstler counter and shortening the magazine. but there are still a few print lines visible along the length of the barrel that will need to be removed. Finally, take care when dressing to ensure overall alignment of the armour is straight. 1 Quote
