Looks good to me, Chris!

 

If someone put a gun to my head and said "find something wrong" I'd say that your right shoulder bell looks like it is turning out on you, and your fabric in your boots could be a little whiter. But that's it.

 

Unless we're just missing something obvious, this should be pretty painless for EIB!!

 

Good luck!!

Hi Chris, I agree with Tim, looks pretty schmick, just that shoulder bell turning.

If you reposition it and find it keeps turning, you could move the top strap from the bell to the shoulder bridge forward a little this may help to reduce it.

Good luck, but should be fine.

Hey there Chris!! Thank you so much for your application for Expert infantry!! Let's have a look at your armor!!

 

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All required pics are posted. Although I can see the holster attachments in several pics, I really should have a close-up.

Your armor, however, contains all required elements for Expert infantry. Congratulations and welcome to EIB!!

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section, I summarize cemments from other trooprs as well as add my own. These are suggestions that won;t affect any application unless specifically noted.

Nice overall job on the armor. Good clean build. I REALLY wish ATA would get a new right forearm. I know there is not way to bring this down. 

Perhaps have you ever thought of replacing the pop rivets in your thermal detonator with screws?? Slot head in specific??

The T-Tracks on DLT-19s had a thin, black wire around each end. post-12041-0-39123800-1423104083_thumb.jpg If you wanted to, this wire is available at hobby stores that have model train supplies.

The elastic on your boots looks good.

 

Centurion Suggestions:

It looks like you are well on your way towards your goal of Centurion. There are a couple things you will need to update before you can apply.

First, I would like you to send me a close up of the ends of your belt where the plastic meets the canvas with a measuring tape showing the width. Where are these wide belts coming from???? The canvas belt should in no way exceed 3 1/4 inches wide. That is too wide in my opinion but has long been accepted. Yours just seems wide to me.

Next is the brow trim on your helmet.  I understand that you replaced it after a mishap, but it needs to be the correct shaped trimpost-12041-0-38699100-1423104699_thumb.jpg

Lastly is the 4 button plate on your abdomen. The plate itself should be exactly that....a plate. It should be trimmed to not exceed the edges of the stage it sits on.

With these minor adjustments, Centurion should be yours. Just make sure to follow the photo checklist when you apply!   Congrats on EIB again!!!

Would you mind measuring the width of your canvas belt top to bottom?

As for the fixes, right on!! Just take your time and do things right. We'll be here!
