Even though FX kits are outdated, it's nice to see a few who are still attempting to make them look their best.

 

Looking good.

Hi Brian, thanks for your comments

Hi Xiomer

Can we please have a clear image of the left and right sides of you blaster. It is very hard to see the T track details with your dark shirt behind the photos you have supplied

Thank you.

Hi Xiomer

 

We are going to give you the opportunity to get this  required modification on your blaster to reach the standard for Expert infantry. Please see the below section of the CRL we are refering to and the breifly mentioned mod for Hasbro blaster.

 

For level two certification (if applicable):

 

• Scratch-built, resin cast, Hyperfirm rubber cast blasters shall have a total of 6 T-tracks on blaster (leaving the lowest row on the magazine housing side uncovered).
• If using the Hasbro E11 toy blaster, it is modified to have the correct number of T-tracks (6 total), with a lower row of open vent holes on the magazine housing side.
  • This is accomplished by covering the pre-existing rows of holes with T-tracks, then grinding off the lower integrated T-track on the magazine housing side, and drilling a new row of holes in its place.

Should be an easy fix, Xiomer!

[xiomer[TK]]

Dear Andrew, its done

 

first: Inferior T-track from left side eliminated

second: new set of 9 holes drilled

third:  little piece in third hole sculped and placed

fourth: sand & paint

Well done my friend, we will be with you shortly

[Sly11[Admin]]

Hi Xiomer, thanks for your application and welcome to your EIB review. Lets get started.

CRL and EIB Application Requirements:

All submission photos have been posted. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Welcome trooper!      

 

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 would be listed separately in the above section.

Expert infantry is as far as one can go with FX armour, and as mentioned in your thread, it is good to see members still pushing the old kits to this level.

If we were to make any suggestions to your overall look, it would be to space the side rivets out evenly across the side . Currently yours all sit in a small cluster around the mid point of the ab and kidney plates. The lower rivet shouldnt be seen as it is covered by the belt. The top rivet should be much closer to the top edge of the two plates.

We must also thank you for modifying the Hasbro blaster to the required EI level, you have done a fantastic job with this FX kit, and it is one of the best we have seen to date.

 

Congratulation  Xiomer on a well deserved Expert Infantry badge

[xiomer[TK]]

Dear Andrew, thank you very much for your guidance and advice. I feel so proud to become a EIB
