Chemi[Staff] Posted July 29, 2021 Report Posted July 29, 2021 Hi Georgia, and thank you for your EIB application! CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of Expert Infantry. Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armour. Note that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. First of all Georgia, let me tell you that your armor looks great. Congratulations!!! -Starting from the top, ideally , the ear screws should go aligned with the rear edge of the Traps. It is mentioned just for your consideration as it is a more elaborate setting. Reference images - The brow trim, should be a bit shorter. It's very, very, very little, but this way, maybe you won't see those "ridges" from behind the helmet (do it little by little so as not to cut too much). Reference images -For Basic level : Mesh may be used behind the frown to obscure the face of the wearer. Something that characterizes us(Stormtroopers) is that we are anonymous. Children(and "not-so-children" ) in Trooping see their characters with emotion and do not imagine that within that armor there is a fanatic like them. For this reason, we try, by adding a mesh behind the "teeth" of the helmet, to prevent our face from being seen through the holes in them. We are suggesting to add the mesh to your helmet. Reference image -Just a simple strapping issue here. It looks like your left bicep is riding a bit higher than the right one. Raising(the right) a bit, would make a big difference in the overall look. Reference image - Ideally the ab and kidney should sit flush with no gap, but also no overlap. It looks like a simple dressing issue too. Maybe the belt is too tight. Put everything in its correct position first, and then tighten the belt...I'm sure it will hold everything in its correct position. Reference images -Your thighs seem to overlap a bit(cod). To avoid this, and also avoid some armor "bites", you can trim the top a bit, or perhaps lower them. This would also help keep your sniper knee plate (below) from riding underneath. Reference images -Your Sniper plate is sitting a bit under the thigh, maybe you could place some foam to push it forward (maybe, after lowering the thighs (previous point), it is not necessary). Reference images -The angle on the top of the sniper knee plate. It's close, but for a better look we are recommending that you trim it down (to closer match the reference images). Reference images *************************************************** Centurion Requirements; In this section we prepare you for Centurion. Because Centurion photos show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here and additional photos may be required. We try to point out all that we can from what we see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. L-3: Back plate shall have no, or minimal overlap of the kidney plate. We have a challenging issue here but we have confidence that you can do it Georgia!!!. We know that you are only 5 feet 3 inches tall, but your back plate is riding too far over the kidney plate. In this case, some adjustments have to be made, including trimming the lower part of the back plate (here, at FISD, you can find all the help you need). As seen in the reference images, Luke's back plate had to be trimmed because as we all know he was "A little short for a Stormtrooper" and had no return edge in the back (or on the front of the chest) so it could be trimmed and still reach L3. (Note that there were no screws on the bottom of his back plate). Reference images (Luke's armor) -Your Han snap is positioned farther away from the corner than the reference images. You will need to drill out the snap, reposition it, and fill the old hole. Reference images -Kidney rivets are too far from the edge and will have to be moved closer to the return edge, as seen in the reference image. After moving them, you can fill the holes with ABS paste and then sand/polish them. Believe me, seems more difficult than it really is... Reference image L3- Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box. The outside front edge of the drop box should line up with the end of the ABS belt. Moving them outward and applying a little E-6000 (or similar) to the back of the strap can prevent them from moving. Reference images L3- The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt. The left side seems to need just a little trimming to be ok...The right side is perfect!!! Reference images L3- The top of the ABS ammo belt should sit at or just above the bottom of the central and vertical abdomen button panels. It would be necessary to raise your AB belt a bit. One popular fix to this is to add a piece of Velcro to the belt and AB plate to keep it in place.(Very easy fix, Georgia ) Reference images And that's all Georgia. You have a great armor, and we have complete faith that you can address all the issues. I look forward to seeing your submission for Centurion!!! 1 Quote
