EIB adjustments


 


I shaved most of the return edge from the shoulder bells and tightened the straps between the shoulders and shoulder bridge to try and bring the bells in towards the chest.


 


I also lowered the biceps as much as I could and let the forearms out a tiny bit. My arms are unnaturally long, so there are still a few gaps here and there.

I also moved the drop boxes more towards the edge of the plastic belt and glued them in place

Looking GREAT, Sean, and really nice job on this build!  It may be the camera angles, but it looks like your drop boxes may need to come out just a bit to be even with the end of the belt.  Adding a photo like the one below to your application to show the alignment might help.

On a side note, you can remove all the return edge on the top of the thighs if you find them uncomfortable... (mine chafed the heck out me until I got rid of them).

Best of luck, Trooper, and I look forward to welcoming you to the rank of Centurion!

 

P.S.  LOVE the double snap system.  I use this on all my armor and have never regretted it, (or had anything fall off or come unsnapped during a troop).

Thanks, Joseph. I've added this pic to the original post, now:

Also added in the wrist side of the forearms, which I forgot about initially.

The thigh tops don't bother me. I can lower them a bit or remove the return edge though, if needed for accuracy.

Hey Sean, thank you for your Centurion application. 


CRL and Centurion Application Requirements:


All required photos have been submitted. Thank you for making the suggested repairs. Your armor contains all necessary elements to qualify you for Centurion. Sly and myself would like to welcome you, congratulations!       :salute:


 


Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:


Nothing to add here. Great job on your armor trooper   :jc_doublethumbup:

Thanks, Christian! We all put so much work into these builds, it's nice to finally see the finished product (although I suppose one's armor is never really finished). I can finally tidy up the garage a bit and put all those random snaps and things away lol
