nukem25rs[TK] Posted November 10, 2016 Report Posted November 10, 2016 looking good! Go go AP armor! I would def get the shoulder bells a little more even with the bridges. In the first pic it looks like your left one is overlapping the bridge, the only other thing I see is the excess glue on the sniper plate edges and paint the TD pan head screws black. your AB to kidney rivets and lining up are practically perfect! Nice work!! 1 Quote

Sly11[Admin] Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Hey Christopher thank you for your EIB application, lets go through it. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All submission photos are present and your armor displays all the elements required for Level 2 Badge. Congratulations and welcome to Expert Infantry!! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by us and your fellow troopers. Suggestions made here are to improve the overall look of your armor. If these suggestions would effect an application they will be mentioned in the above or below sections. Only a few very minor things to mention, so lets take a look. Two adjustments to your shouklder bell are going to get it sitting just right. The top strap needs just a touch more length to stop the overlap from occuring, and the Bell needs to be rotated forward to also even out the gap between the chest plate. The remainder of our suggestion are just a clean up with a bit of TLC, you will look pristine. As we see below there's some excess glue that needs removal. If its E6000, it will peel off very easily, but idf it is CA glue, you will need to carefully sand it off with fine sand paper then polish the area back to a gloss. I have used gradually finer paper and Novus polish in the past to fix similar incidents. Also while you have the fine sandpaper out, you have a few rough edges that can catch and damage your undersuit. We would recomend going over your entire kit and remove any that look similar to the edges in the below image. Lastly, a finishing touch on an amazing set of armour. Paint those screws on the Thermal Det black as per the screen used versions. Reference Image Centurion Suggestions: In this area we try to prepare you for the best possible chance of a clean Centurion pass. I think if you address the above mentioned issues and give your blaster some weathering (remember less is more) you will have one fine set of armour and a Centurion badge well in your grasp. Congratulation, and hope to see you in Centurion application soon. 1 Quote
Chewy[TK] Posted November 16, 2016 Author Report Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) Awesome, thank you for the review! For clarification that is E6000 on the knee so that shouldn't be a problem to get rid of. Aside from a bit of tidying up and putting some padding on the inside of the left thigh (it's currently slipping down and getting caught on the knee plate) I'm pretty satisfied with everything so far. Expect my Centurion application soon. Edited November 16, 2016 by Chewy 1 Quote
