CableGuy[TK] Posted March 20, 2018 Report Posted March 20, 2018 Hi Josh, Not sure if it’s just me but, I can’t see any of your images. Just code. Dan 2 Quote
Dark PWF[Staff] Posted March 20, 2018 Report Posted March 20, 2018 It is not just you, Dan. I cannot see any images either. I know what his armor looks like, and I promise that the photos are great, but yeah... not showing up at the moment. 2 Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted March 20, 2018 Report Posted March 20, 2018 When you are linking these on imgur, you need to use the Direct Link option from the dropdown menu. That should do the trick. 1 Quote

ukswrath[Staff] Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Hey Josh Andrew or myself will be with you shortly EDIT: We need a photo of the waist belt/holster connections (front and back) please Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Before we get started we need you to make a correction for us. The calf cover strip is supposed to stop just below the upper molded edge. Can you trim these down and sub a new photo please. Thanks Reference photo 1 Quote

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 Really nice job on that build, Josh, and GREAT to see you went with the double snap system! (You won't regret the extra work, brother, I promise). Hopefully you will be aiming for Centurion after your EI approval, in which case I can suggest a couple of items to help. First, I would raise your ABS belt a bit in the front. It should cover (or even overlap a bit) the bottom of your large ab button plate. (screen shot below) The other is to change out the TD screws. They should be the flat slotted "pan-head" style. I will send you a set free of charge, just PM me. It may just be me, but how wide are the clips on your TD? They should be right at the 30mm mark. Easy fixes, brother, and these small changes will bring you a lot closer to screen accuracy. See you at EI soon! 1 Quote

Tony has suggested the belt raise, and I will make that adjustment as soon as I can. I also need to fix the cover strips, as noted above. I would love to get a set of those "pan-head' style TD screws. Will be messaging you soon. TD clips I will measure to double check to verify they are correctly sized. Worse case, I'll make a new set. Look forward to getting these corrections made and serving my Empire!!! Thanks much for the push in the right direction! Quote

Actually all we need is a photo of the holster connections on the back side of the belt, and the calf correction. Raising the belt would be a suggestion but not a requirement. Soon as we have the updated photos we can get you approved. Quote

Sorry for the delay all. I'm about to take the pics and post. I had the calves fixed 5 minutes after I read the reply, just no time to re-take the photos requested. They'll be up in a matter of hours. Thank You for your patience. 1 Quote
ukswrath[Staff] Posted June 18, 2018 Report Posted June 18, 2018 No worries Josh we'll be here when you're ready. Quote
menschie[TK] Posted June 18, 2018 Report Posted June 18, 2018 Josh, beautiful job on your armour. Looking like you're a hair away from Centurion, let alone EIB. I look at the beautiful painstaking job you did on the teeth in the helmet, and can see you're a stickler for detail, have an artistic flair and are willing to take the time necessary. That's always impressive. Can't wait to see your Centurion application! Your lenses are showing blue for me. Likely just a strange pic, but still. 2 Quote
SgtGarand[TK] Posted June 22, 2018 Report Posted June 22, 2018 Wow looking great! A very clean build, especially on the bucket. I think when you add the other photos EI should be in the bag. Also, very impressive that you can fit your cap inside your helmet. Since you are aiming for Centurion, the one thing I see you could adjust in the meantime is the gap between your belt and drop boxes. It's very minimal but the goal is to have little to no gap and will make that Centurion badge appear under your name that much faster. Good luck trooper! 2 Quote
