Hi Jose. You did a great job on your build. Let's bring another MTK to EIB! If there is anything I can recommend for you to work on which will play a role if you go to centurion is to shorten up the elastic to your drop boxes. They should be pretty much touching the belt. Overall great job and good luck!

All right Jay, thank you for your EIB application let's get started


CRL and EIB Application Requirements:


All required photos are present. First off I would like to say it is my joy and pleasure to review your application. Shortly after joining the 501st and FISD myself you contacted me here regarding helmet assembly advice. There I had the opportunity to mentor you. You were the first person I mentored. I've been inspired ever since just watching you learn, build and now help others. Troopers Helping Troopers is what's it's all about and you my friend are an excellent example of just that. On another note, that's one beautiful set of armor you have there, excellent build. The Golden Gate Garrison will be proud to have another MTK EI in the ranks that's for sure :duim:  


 


Jay, your armor meets all the necessary elements to qualify for EIB. With that Sly and myself would like to congratulate and welcome you Expert Infantry!!   :th_AnimatedBravoSmiley: 


 


Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:


In this section we will discuss observations made by your fellow troopers and/or ourselves. These may contain suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. The only concern we have visually is we would like to see you tightening up the shoulder bells. You can do this by simply shortening the upper bell to shoulder strap, and by removing some of the lower bell return edge.

Centurion Suggestions:


In this section we analyze the armor a bit deeper preparing you for your Centurion application if you choose to apply. Besides replacing the Hasbro blaster which is required for Centurion we would also like you to address the following items.


 


According to the CRL the drop boxes are to reside just below the ammo belt, you have a little bit of a gap. Raising them a bit would make that section of you armor look even better.

Your TD clips are to be butted against the end caps like so. Simply reposition them and you should be ready to go.

Just a few corrections and you'll be ready to rock Centurion. You can do it Jay   :jc_doublethumbup:

Jay was the very first GGG member I encountered (quite serendipitously) at the point I was about to start with my Anovos kit.

He was the first person who offered help with my build and even went to my house to assist and advise.

I'm honored to witness your approval as an Expert Infantryman. I echo Tony's kudos to you. Jay is a Trooper so ready to help fellow and would-be Troopers in any way that he can.

Cheers!
