Thank you for your consideration.

Awesome job!  Only thing I see is on the right side, is the ab overlapping the kidney piece?  These should be cut so they meet.

It's been a while since we've seen a Movie-FX ;).

 

Your armor is looking really good. I'm personally fine with the overlapping on your right side, i am more bothered by the snap positioning on this side which should be around 10mm far from the edge. Also, something i think is worth mentionning is your hengstler is set extremely high on your blaster. It might be good to lower it if you can:

Yes Germain, I think you are right - the Counter was mounted way to high. Here is the corrected Version:

Thank you for your input!

Armor looks great! But the blaster needs some work as mentioned above. Your folding stock looks a little droopy for a doopy as well. The scope rail also looks like its a little high, although if its under 1/2" i think you'll be fine.

 

Best of luck trooper!

Allright, Gentlemen. Thank you so far for your comments on the details.

 

First I corrected the position of the snap on the right side of the armor:

Thank you again, Germain, for your input on this.

 

And now Andrew, you were right about that sick look of the folding-stock. I fixed that thing in a much better way:

And that annoying resin-scope rail also had to bite the dust and was replaced by an aluminium-rail:

Thank's again, Troopers, for your sharp eyes.

Hey Marc:

Sorry again regarding the delay of getting to your application. Thank you, though for your EIB and you have been delayed long enough....(darn C7)

 

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All required submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all necessary requirements for Expert infantry. With that, I would like to congratulate and welcome you to EIB!!!

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section, suggestions by myself and your fellow troopers will be summed up. Many suggestions are made to improve the final look of your armor. If any of these would affect an application, they will be listed separately.

As Germain pointed out this maker of armor doesn't come across the boards too often. It is clear to see the lineage, though. Nice work on the overall assembly and the armor fits you well!! Great work. In my absence, you have had some great suggestions from great people watching out here. Many of these, I see have already been suggested and addressed by you. I am sure you agree that the improvements on your blaster were one of the top things needed. It looks so much better now.  The trimming of your side overlap made that right upper ab snap move right into position and looks like it will make for a better fit of your torso. 

Nice work on your helmet details!!

 

Centurion Suggestions:

I hope we will see a Centurion application from you here at some point. There are a couple things I would like you to follow up on before applying. 

The only part on your armor that I would like to see additional pics of is your waist belt. It almost looks like the outer most rivet covers sit in recesses. This was not the way the waist belts were done. They were just plain and flat in this area and the rivet cover sat on top...covering the rivet. 

Next is your thermal detonator. Your looks very long to me. The overall length of the thermal detonator should be in the neighborhood of 185mm.  20 mm end caps, 120mm center control panel and 12mm gaps between the end caps and center panel.  You seem to have some extra space between your caps and center panel. I think your belt clips might be a little thinner as well so this could adding to the situation. Please confirm this.

Lastly, If any of the adjustments you have made show clearly on any pics, please re-take these for your Centurion application. Especially full body pictures.

Congrats again!!!

Thank you all for you sharp eyes, your kind recommendations and of course your congratulations. Nice to join the EIB-ranks!

And of course I will continue the work on the armor - just as all of us do - right? :D

 

Thanks again.
