You can try by moving around with the shins tapered so you can feel how mobility works and tighten or loosing the tape. Post photos when do that.

Hi Anthony, what I could suggest is to trim first the front of each shins only. Using painter's tape joint the shins like you were placing an inner cover strip to see how they look. Once you are sure they match you can place the cover strip (front only). Using your inner clothes you you can adjust the back.

Good Luck Steve.!!

I think He means submissions are increasing, but we haven't filled the 1 K yet.

Stay Strong Mate, I'm sorry you have to make such hard decisions . Hope things go better and all return to be good. Cheers

It would be better If you can change this photo in advance. just edit the post, delete the first one and paste the new.

Tico, could you please add the following photos mean while the D.O. Team assigns your application? Helmet Right side Close-up of kidney/ab plate connection left side to see the 3 rivets ,(not need to suit up) Thank you !

Great Caleb !! One of us will be with you shortly.

Congratulations Ken, Welcome to the Legion !!!!

Yes Andreas, Basic is from your Garrison, EIB and Centurion you apply Here in FISD.

26 spots and counting down . Last approved EIB Fernando (TK29415) from Spain. The D.O. Team needs more action. !!

Hi Fernando, and thank you for your EIB application! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: Todas la fotos solicitadas han sido aportadas, y en nombre de todo el D.O. Team, nos complace darte la bienvenida al rango de Experto de Infantería. Felicitaciones!! 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! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; En esta área revisamos los aspectos observados por otros Troopers y el D.O. team. Algunas observaciones serán sugerencias para mejorar la apariencia de tu armadura. 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 armour. *************************************************** Vamos a iniciar desde arriba: Let's start from top: 1-Las lineas de rango están muy delgadas y la zona gris , en la izquierda está un poco mas redondeada, unos cuantos minutos con pintura y pincel y estas listo. The black rank bar paint is very thin on your ear bumps and the gray zone on the left ear bar is a little rounded. This should be a simple fix - just a few minutes paint and brush. Right Left Reference Images 2-Las "Cejas" de tu casco , como puedes ver en las fotos de referencia van un poco más cortas, este es un ajuste muy fácil y rápido, solamente ten cuidado de hacerlo poco a poco para no cortar de más. The brow trim of your helmet, as you can see in the reference photos should be a little shorter, this is a very easy and fast adjustment, just be careful to do it little by little so as not to cut too much. Right Left Reference Images 3- Hiciste un buen trabajo en la instalación de la Sniper Knee . Te recomendamos que le recortes un poco el borde de retorno para que el grado de precisión sea mayor. You did a great job on aligning your sniper knee. In order to go for that extra bit of screen accuracy, we're recommending you trim the return edge back a bit. Reference Images 4- Tu armadura posterior (Trasero) parece estar traslapándose a los muslos, puede ser solamente un asunto de ajuste al ponerte la armadura. Your posterior armor appears to be at a point of overlapping your thighs, it may just be a matter of fit when putting on the armor. Reference Images 5- Finalmente, los Rivet de la faja de munición de la pierna , conforme a las referencias deberían ir más centrados, no es algo que te afecte para nivel Centurión pero se hace notar para tu conocimiento y un futuro ajuste Your Thigh ammo pack rivet is a little off according to the references, This is not affecting you for level 3 but for a more screen accuracy we notice and let you know it and for future adjustments Reference Images *************************************************** Centurion Requirements; Esta sección te preparamos para el nivel Centurión, debido al nivel de detalle requerido, mayor que EIB, hay otros aspectos que se verán luego de manera que podríamos requerir fotos adicionales. Procuramos señalar la mayor cantidad de elementos posible, pero el grado de precisión final es responsabilidad del Trooper. In this section we prepare you for Centurion. Because Centurion photos show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion 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 see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. Comencemos : Let's start: 1-CR: Ear screws shall be slotted, flat topped, countersunk and painted white. Los tornillos de la parte inferior de tu casco están un poco salidos y en angulo, alinearlos un poco y un par de vueltas con el destornillador solucionan ese punto. The ear screws on the lower side are slightly out and at an angle, some re-alignment and a couple of turns with the screwdriver solve that point. Reference Images 2-CRL: There should be a minimal gap between the shoulder armor and the chest/back plates. Para nivel Centurion, espacio entre las campanas de los hombros y la armadura de pecho debe ser mínimo de manera que las campanas y los hombros deberían tocarse, (o estar muy cerca). En tu caso parece que es cuestión de acortar los elásticos de la conexión entre estos For Centurion level, there should be minimal space between the shoulder bells and the chest armor, and the tops of the shoulder bells should touch (or be very close to) the shoulder bridges. In your case it seems that it is a matter of shortening the elastics of the connection between these. Reference Image 3- CRL Headlines notes : Text descriptions are only one part of the guideline. GML's and costumers must consider both text and pictures (CRL and Reference) when reviewing the costume. Como indicamos anteriormente, el nivel Centurion conlleva una revisión más detallada conforme al CRL e imagenes de referencia con el fin de alcanzar el mayor nivel de precisión en la armadura. Parece que la campana del hombro izquierdo es más larga que la del derecho y es más notorio cuando se comparan lado a lado. Para nivel 3 deben ser de la misma medida. La altura de los biceps necesitan un ajuste en los elásticos para verse más simétricos . Un arreglo Fácil ! As we indicated earlier, the Centurion level involves a more detailed revision according to the CRL and reference images in order to achieve the highest level of screen accuracy. It appears that the left shoulder bell is longer than the right one, and this is more apparent as seen in the side by side comparison. For level 3 these should be the same length. The bicep height also needs some strapping adjustments to be more symmetrical. Easy fix! Reference images 4-CRL: The plastic shoulder straps need to be held down in the back via a white elastic band to the white fabric that connects/bridges the chest and back piece. Quizás sea efecto de la luz o la distancia pero parece ser que no tienes la tira elástica que conecta los puentes de los hombros con la tira de tela que conecta la armadura del pecho con la espalda. Puedes usar una tira elástica blanca de 5 mm. Perhaps it is the effect of light or distance but it seems that you do not have the elastic strap that connects the shoulder bridges with the fabric strap that connects the chest armor with the back. You can use a 5mm. white elastic strip. Reference Images 5- CRL: Ab button paint shall not extend beyond the bottom of the actual raised button. La placa de botones del abdomen es un poco grande y sobresale del borde del panel sobre el que se encuentra, sugerimos que lo recortes un poco. Por otra parte la pintura de los botones de la placa pequeña sobresale un poco del borde elevado de los botones. Es un arreglo fácil con un palillo de dientes y un removedor de pintura (que no sea Acetona) Your ab plate is a bit large, and overhanging the edge of the panel it's sitting on top of. We're suggesting to trim it back a bit. On the other hand, the paint on the buttons on the small plate sticks out a little from the raised edge of the buttons. Easy fix with a toothpick and some paint remover (Non Acetone) Reference Images 6-CRL: The top of the ABS ammo belt should sit at or just above the bottom of the central and vertical abdomen button panels Tu cinturón debe subir un poquito para estar perfecto, un truco muy utilizado es poner un par de piezas de velcro detrás y de esta forma evitar que se baje al frente. Your belt needs to go up a little to be perfectly, a widely used trick is to place a couple of small strips of Velcro behind belt to ensure it doesn't sag in the front Reference Images 7- Finalmente, un detalle en tu Blaster E11. El Contador de munición Hengstler está colocado muy atrás, hay que moverlo un poco. En algunos casos basta con despegar y volver a colocar en la posición correcta, verifica si en tu caso es factible. The Hengstler counter on his E-11 is sitting way too far back and needs to be moved up. In some cases it is enough to take off and re-position the screws that attach it to the scope rail to get it into in the correct position, check if it is feasible in your case. Reference Images Aquí finalizamos . Quizás parezca mucho trabajo pero confiamos en que puedes hacer los cambios y alcanzar el siguiente nivel .Centurion. De nuevo, FELICITACIONES TROOPER !! That's all,, Although it seems like a lot of work, we are confident that you can make the changes and reach the next level. Centurion. Once again, Congratulations Trooper !!

Great to know mate!! looking forward for your TK ID.

Congratulations Trooper , Welcome to EIB. just few adjustments and go for Centurion.

Congratulations !! , let's the party begin !! Feel free to ask questions, measure twice or more, cut and glue once . Post photos and receive tips and suggestions for our very skilled Troopers. Good luck with this amazing project..

Hi, I'm not a R1 armor expert, but looking some building threads and references, what I think can work could be: 1- Afix the Chest tho the Ab and kidney section plate using Velcro ? or 2-To lengthen back the shoulder bridges, (I'm not sure if they can move) and this allows the chest and back to down a bit (maybe 1 inch or 2). Note: When in armor, it's not easy to move your head freely, to see down you need to bend on and side movement is limited. Hope this can help or a least give you a tip . Cheers

ok, vamos a trabajar con esas. gracias. ok, we'll work with those .

Se ve muy bien, Suerte Alvaro. de dónde eres? Looks great, good luck Alvaro, Where are you from?
