Looks great, Sarah! The only thing that may need to be looked into is the butt plate. It looks like it's tucked into your thigh in the back. Could be the angle of the shot, though. Good luck, trooper!

[Alay[TK]]

It does occasionally slide under the thigh armor after wear... Might be time to reshape my butt some more!

Hi Sarah,<br>
you made an awesome job with your Armor! <br>

Cheers <br>

I'm a bit concerned about the cod pic. Something seems fishy about that picture.

Hey Sarah, thanks for your patience, Sly or myself will be with your shortly.

Thanks!

HI Sarah. Welcome and thank you for your EI application. 

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All submission photos have been posted including the fish, nice touch   . Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper and excellent job on your armor!        

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. We have a few very minor suggestions, none of which will hold you back from that EI badge.

 

1) Shoulder bells is the back could use a little adjustment, evenly spacing the gap between the chest and back plates will balance out your armor.

2) Rotate the right forearm inward aligning the front cover strips, also raise it slightly so the gap between it and the bicep are equal between the left and right sides and finally, you might want to trip the front cover strips nearest your elbow to help prevent them from digging into your arm.

 

3) Butt plate could stand to be tucked in, above the thighs as ______ mentioned.

 

3) Thermal Detonator clips could stand to be curved just below the face plate, above the screws. They appear to stick straight out which you run the risk of snagging them on something. It's not bad, just a little tweak.

Centurion Suggestions:

Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. This is also where we try and get you in the best possible position for a successful Centurion application. The only area in question, and very minor at that, ensure all the return edge is gone from the wrist side of your forearms.

Again, very nice job on your build and congratulations, We hope to see you at Centurion. 

[Sam Crow[TK]]

congratulations! how did you paint your blue and gray buttons so perfectly round on the ab?

[Alay[TK]]

Thanks!!!  I will definitely be making those adjustments and submitting for Centurion!  Thanks again for taking the time Ukswrath!

 

What's the suggestion for fixing the shoulder bells?  They seem to "roll" forward... should I add straps to the chest and back too so they don't move with wear?  Or keep them centered on the biceps better somehow?

 

@Sam Crow; They're decals.  You can get stencils though for painting.
