Hi Luis, and thank you for your EIB application! 

 

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry.  Congratulations!  :salute:

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly;

In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team.  Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor, and please keep in mind that  we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions.

 

 

Starting from the shoulders, The left shoulder strap, seems a bit short. Maybe you can move it a bit to make it look like the one on the other side. ;)

The raised ridges should be aligned. A simple dressing issue easy to fix. The other leg looks perfect. :duim:

                                                                                   ***************************************************

Centurion Requirements:

In this section we prepare you for our highest tier of approval.  Because Centurion photos must show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Level 3 might be seen there and not here and additional photos may be required. We try to point out all that we can from what we are able to clearly see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper.

 

Starting from top.

 

CRL L3:  Neck trim shall be of an s-type profile rather than a u-type profile.     

 

Your helmet's neck trim has the correct "S" shape, however, it was installed incorrectly. It should go with the flat section facing outward, on the edge of the helmet.

                                foLmhph.jpg ffSAOtp.jpg

 

 

 

 

CRL L3: There should be a minimal gap between the shoulder armor and the chest/back plates.

 

This looks like a simple strapping issue.  shortening  the shoulder strap and  a bit could reduce the gap. Another trick here is to remove the Shoulder Bell's  return edge to allow them to sit close the chest armor. You can also flip the bells forward a little.

 

                                                                                                                                                 Reference Images

Centurion is all about accuracy, It could be some light effect but we noticed your handguards have a return edge  or border that you will need to trim a bit for L3.

 

                                                                                                                                                             Reference Images

   dUaDe7A.jpg                  lEOeiPe.jpg    q8QCSp4.jpg

 

 

CRL L3: Ideally there no gap between the abdomen and kidney armor. Abdominal and Kidney Plate align horizontally at top.

 

In your case, just take care to align correctly the AB to Kidney armor every time when suiting up to avoid overlapping or any gap.  

 

                                                                                                                                                   Reference Images

-The position of the holster. It seems to be too far offset, so much so that the rivet almost disappears under the TD. This is very noticeable brother, that's why we're requesting the fix for L3 .

                     

                                                                                                                                                                           Reference Images

CRL L3: Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box.

 

-One of the boxes is slightly misaligned.  Just as a matter of taking care of this when suiting up . A useful tip is to add a dab of E6000 to the ammo box strap to keep it fixed to the Canvas Belt.

Moving down , we have the rear armor that looks like is overlapping the kidney armor  quite a bit. A recommended solution , (I have use it with mine) , is to use the V tabs system.  You can mold then with some ABS pieces and a heat gun, glue then to the top section of the butt plate , leaving loose the kidney lower section..

CRL L3: Lower thigh ridge joins (front and rear) shall butt-up flush against each other. Any gaps must be backed with ABS or filled as not to be noticeable.

 

Your thighs show a small gap that can be easily fiexed. Gluing a small piece of ABS plastic behind and filling the front with ABS paste would do the job.

 

 

                                                                                                                                                     Reference Images

CRL L3: The blaster may have minor weathering or base metal exposure however, T-tracks and grips shall be of a black plastic appearance with no silver/metallic weathering allowed.

 

Some battle damage is always a nice detail, buy according to the CRL  and on screen images, you would need to apply and extra coat Black paint .  Tha T-tracks and grips must go with no weathered look.  Easy fix.
