Only suggestion I have is bring your shoulder bells inward on the front. Good luck trooper! :duim:

Nice looking Kit! A few suggestions from what I see. Bring your shoulder bells closer to the shoulder straps and towards the front. Restrain and/or heat bend your butt plate for a better fit. Reduce your back/kidney gap. And if you're going for Centurion, your side rivets  (ab and kidney plates) , and cod rivet should be split rivets. Good Luck! :duim:

looking good!  aside from everyone elses comments, I think the outlines on your traps and tears look a little big.  BUT it could just be my eyes alone. 

 

best of luck on that sharp looking armor!

Great work mate! In addition to others comments.. although not technically required, I would add some han hooks to the biceps which will help stop the shoulder bells riding up (they look slightly this way in the pics)

Hey David, thank you for submitting for EIB, let's get started.


 


CRL and EIB Application Requirements:


All photos are present and your armor represents all necessary elements to qualify for EIB. With that we'd like to congratulate you on your new "Expert Infantryman" status!!


 


Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:


Sly and myself would like to commend you on your build and nice work on the NE and ATA combination. Overall your armor is well balanced. 


 


Centurion Suggestions:


As mentioned by your Trooper brethren, if you could shorten up those top shoulder bell straps so the bells virtually touch the shoulder bridges it would be appreciated.


 


Should look more like this

We would also like to see you trim your sniper plate return edge a bit tapering it instead of rounding it off.

Here's a screen shot

As mentioned by Brad we'd like to see you bring your butt plate forward edges inward closer to your body.

Also mentioned, please eliminate or minimize the gap between your back and posterior.

Should look more like this.

As for your TD clips. Though bends are perfectly acceptable yours are a bit too much. If you could straighten those out a bit that would be awesome. Here's another reference picture.

Forearms are to have absolutely no return edge, they should look like this.


gallery_12157_16_258351.jpg


 


 


And finally as also mention, for Centurion the six kidney to ab rivets, and cod rivet rivet will need to be split rivets as well.


 


As mentioned in the CRL:


"For level three certification (if applicable): The original rivets used for the TK armor were bifurcated rivets or split rivets


A single split rivet or brad is present on the lower tab of the abdomen armor. Rivet does not need to be functional."


 


Thanks again for your application and welcome to the EIB ranks. Excellent job!  :duim:
