illusionz_09[TK] Posted July 11, 2017 Report Posted July 11, 2017 Looks good for approval. Just keep an eye on your side gaps. Tighten the belt up. Quote
Sly11[Admin] Posted July 11, 2017 Report Posted July 11, 2017 Hi James Thank you for getting on to IMGUR, the new set of images are much better I do want to mention something already brought up by one of your fellow garrison mates, and that is the side gaps between Ab and Kidney. As per the Level 2 CRL * Any gap between the abdomen and kidney armour is no more than 1/2" (12.5mm) wide Yours does look to be more, but if you can supply an image with a ruler in it measuring the gap while you are wearing the armour, I am happy to be disproved and get on with your review. Tighten the belt and give it a crack. Thanks James, you got this. Quote
jamihal[TK] Posted July 12, 2017 Author Report Posted July 12, 2017 Here are some pictures of the new sides. i adjusted the strapping to be tighter. if you need other pictures, I will post them when my wife can take other pictures. Left Side Right side Thank you, please let me know if you need other pictures. 1 Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 Thanks for the updates Jim we'll be with you shortly. Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted July 16, 2017 Report Posted July 16, 2017 Nice job on that ATA kit. Jim!! Those side gaps look MUCH better. I think you have this nailed, but it looks as if you will be aiming for Centurion after this, so if I could make a few small suggestions for that they would be: 1. Tighten up the shoulder bells a bit. They should touch your shoulder bridge (or be very close). 2. You may need to trim down the 4 button plate on your ab. (see photo below). Hopefully you used E-6000 so it should be easy to pry off with a razor knife. (GREAT paint job on those, by the way)! 3. I suggest changing out the screws on your TD to the flat "pan-head" slotted type (second photo). If you PM me I will send you a set of these at no charge. 4. Lastly, you may want to align the outside edge of your drop boxes with the outside edges of your ABS belt. Side note: Glad to see that you went with the "double snap" strapping method. I swear by it. All easy fixes, Jim, and I look forward to seeing another EIB (and then Centurion) here in Makaze Squad territory! Quote
jamihal[TK] Posted July 16, 2017 Author Report Posted July 16, 2017 Thank for the suggestions Joseph, and correct I am trying to build everything to the Centurion level. Quote

jamihal[TK] Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Posted July 17, 2017 I have an update Ab button picture. I reduced the button plate. Quote
Sly11[Admin] Posted July 20, 2017 Report Posted July 20, 2017 Hi James thank you for your application, and your patience, adjusting the side gaps and retaking the new shots. lets get rolling. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All the required submission photos have been posted., your armour displays all necessary element as set out in the level 2 CRL, Congratulations. 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 areas to go over but these are simple dress issues easily corrected. I have marked all the areas to cover in this one image and supplied reference images bellow. Before we go into those, I must say this is an outstanding build, and you have done the ATA armour great justice James, very nice indeed. 1. Shoulder Bells: You do still have some elastic that looks loose and can be shortened to bring the top of the Bells closer to the shoulder bridges. We can see you have broad shoulders but think the current gap you have could probably be reduces by half. Just shorten those top elastic straps up a bit and you are done. 2. Ammo Belt: This one is very minor. If you could just raise it a touch so the ammo belt is over the bottom edge of the main Ab button plate, it will look just like the screen used armour. 3.Rotating shin/thigh: more than likely, these have just twisted off center while moving around to have your photos taken, but just try and get the cover strips aligned and central as much as you can, this is another very easy adjustment, and to be honest, that is all your build really needs. Shoulder Bells reference. Ammo Belt reference image. 4. Center Thermal Det: Slide that baby across and make sure its sits nice in the middle, also just keep an eye on the back plate as one corner has popped out over the kidney plate. I don't think there is a problem here just happened through moving around. Centurion Suggestions: In this section we prepare you for Centurion. If there were any areas of concern they would be discussed here. Very difficult to really find anything that would hold back a Centurion application James. The extra images seem to cover off on the little extra required so the only things would be getting the side gaps 100% closed. You are virtually there already with that issue which is awesome. Add the D ring photo in your future level 3 app and make sure you also have all relevant images as per the photo check list and the Centurion CRL. Congratulations again, this is very well deserved. 1 Quote
jamihal[TK] Posted July 20, 2017 Author Report Posted July 20, 2017 Thanks everyone, and thank you for the additional suggestions for Centurion. I hope to make the adjustments soon and get moving onward to Centurion. Quote
