Fantastic job!  the only thing I would do is trim off the shoulder straps rear big tab, I added those as extention for larger people.

Nice work, Dominic. Looking sharp. :-)

Just a couple of little things that might come up as suggested tweaks:

The smaller ab button (pictured right) could possibly be trimmed down a bit.



Also, you might be asked to tighten the elastics on the drop boxes to bring them up to the belt.

Great build. :-)

Better But if you look at the ref pic that Dan provided you`ll see that the corners are stright, that would make it perfect

 

[Calimero[TK]]

Crap, I missed that detail. Good thing that I used E-6000 to glue it, it will be easier to remove and sand.

Just want to add that the buttons are close to the (short) edges so sand the long edges as well and that will help in getting the corners as straight as possible and you probably already had that covered but wanted to make sure

[Calimero[TK]]

I'll remove the piece and sand all the sides

I sanded the piece to straighten the edges and I used some wetsand to remove the paint which I redid but smaller to leave some space around.  I just placed the button piece on the abs without gluing it to get your opinion on the job done.  If you say it's OK, I'll glue it, if not, I'll continue working on it but at least, I won't have to remove the glue.

 

I want it to be the right size but I fear to do too much and scrap the piece.

Think you’ll be fine with that. Good job. :-)

That looks great Dom, but there is one thing you will need to fix as per the CRL for level 3, and that is the return edge at the wrist end of your fore arms. All that material needs to come out , we can see in your image that the ridge material is still there. You got this brother.

Level three certification (if applicable):

• No return edge on the inside of the front of the forearm is allowed.

 

 

For your reference

[Calimero[TK]]

When I checked for the return edge, I never thought of looking there because for me, it was part of the pattern on the piece.

 

I sanded the return edge, is this OK?

Looks good!!

[Sly11[Admin]]

Thanks Dominic, I will be with you shortly.

 

[Shanester[TK]]

Looking good trooper! Best of luck!

Hi Dominic, welcome back and  thank you for your Centurion application, time to get you approved. 

CRL and Centurion Application Requirements:

All submission photos are present. Your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Centurion so congratulations Trooper!     .

 

Other-Armor Fit/Assembly:

Thank you for making the requested mod and trimming out the last of that return edge, you have done a excellent job and we have nothing more to add.
