justjoseph63[Staff] Posted October 10, 2022 Report Posted October 10, 2022 WOW, Adam, you really went all out on this one, bro! Always fantastic to see another HWT... perfect amount of weathering on the armor and pack, and I am envious as all heck of that sweet DLT-19. You are in the queue, sir, so bear with us. 2 Quote
Nairy[Staff] Posted October 10, 2022 Report Posted October 10, 2022 Your photos always look like promo pics! Do you have your own studio? Armor looking incredible! 1 Quote

Do you have your own studio? Armor looking incredible! They're always shot in my garage. I bought that big sheet of wool-like material at the fabric store and just magnet it to the back of the garage door after ironing. I have a really well-lit garage. 1 Quote

When possible using a "contrasting" background is welcomed by staff also your GML/GWL Nice work 2 Quote
revlimiter[Staff] Posted October 10, 2022 Author Report Posted October 10, 2022 Contrast with that dark pack could certainly be a lot better. Sorry about that Glen. Quote

Chemi[Staff] Posted October 12, 2022 Report Posted October 12, 2022 Hi Adam, 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 armor, and please keep in mind that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. Before starting the review, we would like to congratulate you for your HWT... As always, we'll start with the helmet... -Ideally, the ear screws should go aligned with the rear edge of the Traps so we suggest to move them, although we must admit that they are very close to being "perfect". Reference images And that's all Adam. Thank you for making our work easier! Centurion Requirements: In this section we prepare you for our highest tier of approval. Because Centurion photos must show more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Level 3 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 are able to clearly see, but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. A few small details that are very easy to fix... -Your shoulder ammo pack is a little high and a little crooked... You will probably only have to adjust the straps a little bit and it will look much better (you will even be able to move your head more easily, well, as easy as a trooper's head can move). Reference images -About the HWT pack: The pipe mounting brackets, (although not present in the game), stand out and we believe should not be noticeable. We would have "no problem" with it as long as they (and the rivets that hold them) are solid black and the weathering is not noticeable. -The rivets on the backpack straps should be black and there is additional knotted material (that should be removed). We also think that the buckle should be as close to the armpit as possible on both sides. That's all Adam. A little paint and a couple of fixes and Bang!!!, another Centurion badge under your name.... Congratulations again! 4 Quote

Reference images And that's all Adam. Thank you for making our work easier! I am not at all trying to lawyer or argue here, I want to make sure that's clear. I will likely do this soon anyway as I very much agree that it would bring the bucket up another small notch. HOWEVER. This isn't listed in the Centurion Requirements section, right? It's just a suggestion? I ask because I noticed it was specifically not added to the HWT CRL. The latest update to it included the bit about 3D print lines being removed on the pack, but that was the only change. The ear/screw alignment is not present in the CRL nor is the rear thigh/knee gap update. Sooo.... do I have to relocate ear screws for Centurion? 1 hour ago, Chemi said: Centurion Requirements: In this section we prepare you for our highest tier of approval.
