Thanks! I'm itching to get the blaster (shouldn't be long now!) so the approval can proceed

[humperdingle]

OK, apologies for doing the EIB thread a bit piecemeal... Hopefully I have put up all the required images now?

Armor looks great! So does the blaster. Just need some weathering. Good Luck Mark!

Hey Mark, great looking build my friend. Please accept our apology for the delay. This is the first application for the new CRL so Tony and I will be working on it together.

Tony is currently away, so when he gets back we will get stuck into it.

 

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Hi Mark, again sorry for the delay. Can you do us a favor since the E-11 is what you're shown posing with could you please provide close up left, right and rear pictures please. The DLT-19 will not be included in this application unless it's the weapon you would like to apply with. If that's the case you'll need to take pictures with you and that that gun.

 

Thanks

Hi, the E-11 is ANH, which was OK for initial approval. I'll use the DLT for this stage.

I'll get a couple of pics up soon.

How is the outfit itself looking?

[ukswrath[Staff]]

looking good. Sending PM 

[humperdingle]

Thanks Tony. I cornered my daughter when she came home from school. Told her this was vital work for her photography course

 

Anyway, i've added a couple of DLT-19 action shots and fixed the shoulder bell issue, I hope

[Novak Dimon[TK]]

Great job looks awesome. We'll be with you soon, very soon lol

Hey Mark, sorry for the delay. Thank you for your patience and your EI application. Lets do this.

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All submission photos are present, your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Congratulations on an excellent job on your Shocktrooper.     This is the First EI Shocktrooper. Huge congratulations from myself, Sly, the staff and the FISD community.   

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

In this section we review observations made by us and your fellow troopers. If there are any suggested corrections they will be made here. These suggestions are to improve the overall appearance of your armor, to help make you look your best. We have a couple minor suggestions, none of these will effect your EI status. 

As mention in our PM, we suggest trimming the eye sockets a bit more to fit the lens. Doing this will give the are a cleaner, more polished look.   

 

Armor alignment. We like to see the top edge of the ab and kidney aligned. A simple connecting strap adjustment should do the trick.

 

Waist belt alignment, Your waist belt appears to be riding higher on the right side. We suggest dropping it down a smidgen.

 

Drop box positioning. As statedin the CRL the drop boxes shall reside under the ammo belt it self. Again, a simple strapping adjustment should remedy this.

 

 That's it Mark. Great job on this build and having the first Shocktrooper EIB. 

[humperdingle]

Fantastic! Much thanks to yourself, Sly, Eric and Tim (and anyone else involved behind the scenes), who helped out along the way
Hopefully we'll see a few more shock troopers come through the ranks
(Love the FISD kudos under my name BTW )
