Doggydoc[Staff] Posted 11 hours ago Report Posted 11 hours ago Hi Joe, Thank you for your EIB application. Your armour looks great and is close to EIB level, but we are going to need a few changes before we can go ahead and approve it. Lets start at the top and work our way down. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Helmet We are going to need a bit of paint cleanup on the frown ear bars and vocoder. This should be a fairly quick fix with a toothpick dipped in varsol or mineral spirits to carefully scrape away the over painted areas. DO NOT USE ACETONE FOR THIS AS IT WILL MELT THE PLASTIC ON THE HELMET. Your paint on the frown is extending up onto the gums in several areas. Please take a few minutes to clean this up. CRL Basic: Frown is painted gray and does not leave the teeth area. A total of 8 cut outs in the teeth area of the frown are present. References For your ear bars, the black outline will need to be cleaned up a bit as well. References Similarly, your vocoder paint needs to be cleaned up a bit to give more of a defined outline for each of the stripes. Again, this should be a fairly easy correction with a toothpick and some varsol or mineral spirits. References Shoulder straps The white elastic under your shoulder straps is being pulled out by the shoulder bells. This can be corrected by placing some velcro between the ABS shoulder strap and the white elastic one that is being pulled out. This will also bring your shoulder bells in a bit more and achieve the level 3 criteria. References Biceps Your biceps armour pieces are rotating somewhat when worn, this is likely caused by them being a bit too large. This can be corrected by padding the inside with some foam to help keep them aligned with your arm, or by trimming down some of the size for a better fit . References Forearms Your forearms are sitting a bit too high, creating a larger gap than desired at the wrist area. For a more screen accurate look, you want to try to adjust the strapping between the biceps and forearm to create similar sized gaps between the biceps and forearm and forearm and hand plate. References Abdominal Armor The lower edge of the abdominal armour should align with the edge of the cutout notch in the kidney armour. This should be a fairly easy correction and take a few minutes of trimming and sanding. References 1 Quote
