Awesome! I can't wait. :)

Nice clean build! Only suggestion is to clean up the eyes a little.

Hey Gabriel, thank you for your EIB application, let's get to it.

CRL and Expert Infantry Application Requirements:

All required photos have been submitted. Great looking build trooper  :duim: . Your armor meets all the requirements for Expert Infantry.

Sly and myself would like to congratulate you on a job well done.

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

You have put together a very nice set of armor, with only a few minor details that need some attention, so we will start with the one that stands out to us the most.

Drop Box positioning:  The drop boxes need to be aligned with the ends of the plastic ammo belt and they should hang just below it, if not touching the base as in the image below yours.

Back Plate to Kidney plate connection:

In this image, it appears to overlap.

In this one, a large gap opens up

post-28303-0-20200100-1462862601_zpsyqkr

So we see here that the problem stems from the Anovos Velcro strapping system. Its definitely not my choice in strapping as there are better systems available, but to rectify the current gaps and overlaps, you need to bring the two pieces of armor together so the bottom of the back plate is touching the top of the back plate as there is two much slack between the parts. Shorten up those straps. :)

Cover Strips: Some of your cover strips are just a little long and could be trimmed back to finish at the edge of the armor.

Centurion Suggestions:

Ab and Kidney rivet positioning:

This one is a must fix. Unfortunately you have placed the bottom rivet down on the cod section. It needs to remain on the Ab area as in the image below.

Fear not, this isn't a hard fix. You will need to make up some ABS paste using small scraps of ABS mixed in a jar with acetone. This melts the ABS into a tooth past like consistency, which you then fill the holes with, and when it sets sand it with fine sand paper, then wet & dry, and finally some Novus polish.

Many FISD members have made and used ABS paste so i am more than positive you will get help and more advise on how to proceed.

 

Thermal Det screws: This is just a nice upgrade for accuracy, but they can be changed to Flat blade as opposed to the Philips head screws currently being used. Also for screen accuracy they should be painted black

Aside from the above mentioned corrections, you have done a brilliant job with this build. The repairs are well within your capabilities so get to it and hope to see you in Centurion review soon.

 

Again Congratulations. :duim::salute:

I appreciate all the feedback and will be getting on this very quickly. :) I already started with the strapping system. Just upgraded to Mr. No Stripes.

Thanks for all the feedback. Look forward to seeing you in Centurion Level.
