Exquisite paint job on the helmet. Did you hand paint the tube stripes as well?

 

A couple things I noticed. The gaps between your ab and back plate look pretty wide, like about 3 cm. Also, a detailed shot of the thigh ammo belt and sniper plate would be good in order to see how they are attached.

Hi buddy...many thanks for yr feedback. I’m aware the side gaps could be a little smaller but unfortunately at the minute I’m a little ‘chunky’ I do need to make smaller straps and take some more pics...but I am working on it.

I hadn’t submitted pics of the thigh pack or sniper plate as I thought these weren’t required until Centurion application? I do have them on my phone ready should they be asked for.

Again...thanks for taking the time out to have a look and give me a shout

Great armor, good job.

 

One thing that I noticed but I'm not sure that it's a requirement or not.  Should (or would it be better if) the D-ring on the blaster be painted black?

Hey...thanks for yr comment

Not sure about the D ring if I’m totally honest...the silly thing is, I actually masked it off when I painted the E11!

I guess I should paint it as it’s more than likely a requirement for Centurion?

Thanks for pointing it out

I'm not sure it's a requirement but all the pictures I checked, the D-ring is painted. Better be sure than sorry.

Hi Wayne thank you for your patience and EIB application.  
CRL and EIB Application Requirements:
All the required submission photos have been posted. Beautiful job on your build  With that Andrew and I have confirmed your armor displays all necessary elements as set out in the Expert Infantry CRL. Welcome to EI and 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. You have a few areas we'd like to go ever with you. Most are to enhance the overall look of your armor however, the accuracy of the armor is ultimately up to you.

Starting at the top and working our way down, the hovi tip screen mesh doesn't appear to be the correct type (should be a heavier weave), that and they are set back further than what is seen in canon photos. It is suggested replacing the mesh with something closer to accurate and place them closer to the front.

Next the shoulder bells, there should be minimal gap between them and the chest and back plates. Removing any remaining lower bell return edge could help but it's also possible the bells are a bit small for you. This isn't a deal breaker but worth mentioning and worthy of trying to resolve. 

 

Here's a reference photo

 

Next up the bicep and forearm cover strip overlap. The cover strips should not extend past the armors edge. We're not sure if it's a simple photo angle issue but we're suggesting you trim these back in case they are indeed too long.

Next up, the there should be minimal gap between the back and kidney plates. Tightening the connecting straps and/or use nylon webbing will help resolve the issue.

Centurion Suggestions:
In this section we prepare you the best we can for Centurion. If there are any areas of concern they will be discussed here. As you may already be aware there is to be minimal gap between the Ab and Kidney plates. If you choose to apply for Centurion you will need to resolve this area of concern first.The CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable): Ideally there no gap between the Abdomen and Kidney armor.

 

Reference photos

 

And lastly, the drop boxes should be aligned with the ammo belt. In some photos they are in others they're not. We're suggesting you secure the connecting straps to the cloth belt to maintain alignment.

The CRL states: Level three certification (if applicable):
Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box.

Excellent job on your build, hope to see you at Centurion
