Having seen his AP in person I'm pretty sure it's an easy pass. 

 

However... he doesn't seem to quite hit the height requirement.

Oh, this picture is misleading. That's actually a 2:1 scale sculpture of a TK I'm standing beside.

Someone needs to tell the sculptor that his piece's thigh garters have failed.

Just going over the CRLs again, and noticed that a couple things are missing from my pictures/check list . . . 

 

Snaps On Posterior

Hope I didn't forget anything.

Thanks for all the support guys!!!!

Yes, I did save ABS, but it may also be a bit of an elastic issue.  They seem to have gotten a little looser after trooping in Niagara.  It's under 1/2", I measured, but it was even less before.  I may make some super short ones this week and see where I end up.  It's not my stomach, as much as my ribs.

It's like AP christmas these days :)! Very strong build, good job.

 

I would add a clearer pic of your D-ring on your blaster before Steve reviews your application though. It is a requirement for EIB

Standing next to Frankentrooper anyone seems short.

Hey there, Dan! Thank you for your application to Expert Infantry. Let's look at your armor!!

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

Although a bit scattered, all required submission photos have been posted. Thank you, Dan, for taking the initiative to look through the list and post the proper pics. Nice follow up! 

As for your EIB requirements, the side gaps are the limit as to what is allowed. I will take your word as well as my judgement that they are no larger than the 12MM (1/2")  All in all, you armor represents all necessary elements to qualify for EIB. With that I would like to congratulate you on your new "Expert Infantryman" status!!

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

This section is where I will summarize observations of both myself and your fellow troopers. If any upgrades are suggested, they go toward the best final look of your armor. If these changes affect any application, I will list that separate above or below this section.

As was stated, the AP armor that has come in lately has been mind blowing. I am sad I didn't get to see this up close like Franken.....(sorry)  Eric. Well done all around. Solid build, great lines,  attention to detail. The whole package. 

If I was to suggest any improvements or adjustments it would be to the black trim lines surrounding the details on your helmet. I love to see hand painting. I commend anyone who takes this on and you did a great job. With a brush or toothpick moistened with thinner, the uneven section of your lines can be evened out providing a crisper detail in the crowning jewel of this armor. 

By the way, nice undersuit! What is that?? Diver's suit?

 

Centurion Suggestions: Although I try to see everything, the ultimate Centurion accuracy is up to the trooper.

The side gaps seem to be the only thing I notice that would hold you back. You mentioned that they did close. If that is an issue, I would switch over to nylon webbing instead of elastic for both sides of your torso.

 

Congratulations again!!
