Sgt JB Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Terrell had requested that I shorten the drop box straps, and correct the E-11 t-tracks. the last few shots show the corrections. Also shows my necl seal, as I forgot it when I was taking the first shots. Quote
Agent RayBans Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Hey, my girl friend is from Buffalo! Nice suit! Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Love the action shot! Will need final word from Terrell, but I think you're ready to head on down to the detention level and rumble. Seems a problem with cell AA 23 Quote
bluehickey Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Looks awesome, fits you well. Quote
Sgt JB Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 Looks awesome, fits you well. Thank you. Only thing I wish was different is the kidney plate, I wish it was a little wider. At 6"2' I know I have alot of area to cover, so I understand why it doesn't fit me 100%. I want to get 2 more of them, and make them into one that fits me a little better. Quote
2155TK[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Sweet build bro! Advance welcome to EIB! How many are there already? Getting close to the hundred mark! Quote

TK6631[501st] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Congrats Eric, nice suit - Welcome to EIB Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Congrats on making EIB, I just got mine a couple days ago. You fit the ANH armor well, man! Quote
Sgt JB Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 When I first joined, I had mentioned that I wanted to make my suit as close to EIB as I could from the begining, Paul told me to go for it. It inspired me to work a little extra harder on the details, and not to 'settle' on something that didn't look right, just to save time, or because it was easier. Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 I just noticed something and thought I'd make a suggestion since you're going for maximum accuracy: I'd place the detonator clips a little more to the outer edges of the deto. Yours are very close to each other, in the middle of the tube. Like so, vintage reference pic is on the right: You could also "hang" the tube inside the two clips, bent as round hooks on the bottom, and then secure it with 2 rivets per clip. Just like on the movie suits. Quote
Sgt JB Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Posted October 11, 2009 right you are. you must have the Force, and can do the Jedi mind reading trick redoing my TD is on the list of little things I want to do to me it look better. Quote
ObiHahn[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 The little list never seems to get shorter, right? I have "come up with a way to remove the 2 rivets from my hero belt" on my list, and a couple minor fitting nits. You never stop fiddling! Quote
TK3045[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Congratulations Buddy, welcome to EIB. Quote
naatsirhc[TK] Posted October 11, 2009 Report Posted October 11, 2009 Congratulations on your EIB, Eric! Nice work Quote
