justjoseph63[Staff] Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 I KNEW I would be seeing this submission soon, Charles! I am sure your approval is just a formality at this point, and will be well deserved, my friend. Quote

I am sure your approval is just a formality at this point, and will be well deserved, my friend. Thanks Joseph! And thanks for the push to talk set up. I was able to change the buttons and extend all the way to the glove and it works great! Put some scary zombie sounds on the system! I will be shuffling this around at DragonCon in a few weeks. Should be fun. 1 Quote

gazmosis[501st] Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 Ok THIS IS JUST NUTS!!!! Are you kidding me!!?? Way to go, Charles. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted. You may add deathtrooper to your growing list of costumes that have earned EIB. congrats!! Other- Armor Fit/Assembly: I can't find too much to mention in this section. For those who might be asking, gore is not required for this costume. If a trooper wanted blood, it would have to emulate dried blood and not gushing out or wet. Sometimes less is more. Fabulous work on that helmet. I know it's hard sometimes to destroy a perfectly good helmet, but this was worth it!! Great prosthetic work behind the crack openings and with the hands. Centurion Suggestions: Although I try to spot and mention all that I can, the final Centurion accuracy is up to the trooper. I know who you bought your armor off of and the history of it. There are two things that jump out at me regarding Centurion Status however. You will unfortunately need to do a little side shim work to get those shims down to level with the armor surface. Lastly, you will need to heat up a nail or something to knock in the protruding center of the thermal detonator round area. This should look like a donut . Fantastic work and just in time for Halloween!!! Quote
