Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I don't think they need to be remade. I am thinking that if you straighten the clips, then roll the TD out the right location it might help. then just cut the excess off the end. Again, this is probably more of a Centurion issue, but might as well fix it now, that way when your approved EIB, you can just turn around and submit for Centurion *side note, I keep pushing people to apply Centurion when I haven't yet lol. My costume is ready, just been so busy with other projects HAHA! maybe ill kit up tonight and submit!!! 1 Quote

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted September 4, 2018 Report Posted September 4, 2018 Hi again, Jose, and thank you for your both your patience and your ANH-Stunt EI application. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required submission photos have been posted, and I am very pleased to announce your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. On behalf of the D.O. Staff, 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. First, thank you for all the hard work in fixing the issues that have been discussed! For the higher levels, it's all about looking your best and getting a close as you can to screen accuracy... here are a few other items that will help you do that, so let's dive right in! 1. The tears on your helmet would look a lot better if extended to the inside edges of the indentation. Reference image 2. Your vocoder looks good, but a bit of black paint and a "filbert" style brush would clean up the edges and make it look even better! Reference image 3. The tops of your shoulder bells should be touching (or very close to) your shoulder bridge. I have some ideas for achieving this in the section below for you. Reference image 4. For a much better look, your canvas belt could stand to be raised quite a bit in the back. The front part meets the requirements for level 3 by touching the bottom of the center ab button plate, but that could come up more as well and still be acceptable for Centurion. Reference image 5. Some of the buttons on your ab plates could be a bit smaller and more uniform in size. Removing the paint and cleaning them up would take some time but would be well worth the effort and improve the look immensely. Reference image 6. You have your TD plate a little too far toward the front. The "O" should basically face straight up. I noticed that it touches the ends of your clips on the bottom, so just trimming the ends off of those and repositioning them should do the trick. Trimming a small amount from the bottom of the plate would help as well. Reference images Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. 1. Your shoulder bells should be brought in a lot closer to your chest/back plates. I noticed that you have quite a bit of return edge on the bottoms in some areas, all of which can be removed. You may also want to consider a hot water bath to widen/reshape them to conform to your biceps and ride a lot closer in both the front and back. CRL: There should be a minimal gap between the shoulder armor and the chest/back plates Reference images We realize that not everyone can achieve the "perfect gap" as seen above, but with a bit of work I feel confident that you can get a lot closer. 2. Super nice job on sizing those shims for your ab/kidney connection! The gaps are spot-on, but you will need to use some ABS paste on the right side (like you did on the left) to cover the seam. CRL: A single visible seam line is present 3. The ear bars should only have one bump painted black. Easy fix! CRL: Ear bars shall have only one bump painted in black Reference image Overall a really nice job, brother. I am hoping you can get on these issues like you did the previous ones so that we can get you to Centurion! 2 Quote
