Ebio Amisi[TK] Posted February 27, 2022 Author Report Posted February 27, 2022 I am aware of a couple of things as follows: a) Forearms riding a bit higher than they should do. This is because I have shoved my gloves up and not pulled the forearm back down. I've double checked this against the forearms when i am not wearing them and the strapping is the right length b) there is a piece of strapping visible under my armour. This is the "suspender" part of the new thigh armour system I made (see "March To Centurion" thread"). After this suit up, I have decide to remove the suspender part and just stick with the new belt I made. I didn't think it would be worth taking everything off, removing this single part and then suiting up to reshoot everything though c) The ab/kidney gap has improved with the weight loss over the last couple of months. I've lost 7kg! I believe I am now within the gap permitted by the CRL Thanks in advance to whoever is my DO on this and hopefully I've done enough to pass Centurion Quote

gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted February 28, 2022 Report Posted February 28, 2022 While you are waiting for DO feedback you may want to wipe off those pencil marks on the large ab plate, if you haven't done so already Also forearm overlap on bicep, too much gap at wrists Quote

Thank you for point these bits out but i had already addressed them in my follow up post to the photos. The pencil lines have already been removed (its a photo from when i had just finished fixing the buttons) and the armguard is a dressing issue from where i had pushed the gloves up and not pulled back down the armguard. Since it was a minor dressing issue, i didn't think it was worth suiting up again and reshooting everything. Was that the right thing to do? Quote

For centurion your photos really need to be spot on as you are at the top tier and want to look the best in your application, that photo of your ab plates is a close up and would have been an easy one to change out as you didn't need to kit up again. As for the dressing issues I mentioned in your other thread (and one here) that it's entirely up to the DO's if they will allow. 3 Quote
TheSwede[TK] Posted February 28, 2022 Report Posted February 28, 2022 Glen is correct, Centurion is the higest level and it needs to be shown. Now…as Glen said the D.Os might be ok with it but as a former D.O myself I would have asked for new photos. Good luck 3 Quote
Chemi[Staff] Posted February 28, 2022 Report Posted February 28, 2022 Hi Ben. I'll be the DO making your review. First of all, I would like to congratulate you for the great effort you have made to upgrade your armor to Centurion level. However, I see two issues that need to be corrected in order to move along with your application. -The gap between the abdomen and kidney armor and the gap between the shoulder armor(left) and the chest/back plates. Also, regarding what @gmrhodes13 comments, even if it is a simple dressing issue, it is necessary to put on the armor and take new photos.(don’t forget the overlapping forearm and gap at the wrist). Just one last effort Ben... You are very close to seeing the Centurion badge under your name. I am sure that after so much effort, putting on the armor once again will not be a problem. Remember, very important, the gap between the abdomen and kidney armor. Tighten your belt and maybe that will fix it. 3 Quote

Hey Chemi, Thanks for coming back to me on this, i really appreciate all the feedback from everyone. I will suit up again as soon as possible and take new photos. Is there anything else that needs tweaking or improving? Cheers 1 Quote
Ebio Amisi[TK] Posted March 2, 2022 Author Report Posted March 2, 2022 Okey Dokey! I've persuade my very tired wife to help me suit up and take another set of photos. I promised many things I may regret later! Really happy with how this has turned out - i think i look a lot better 3 Quote
