Looking good Alfredo! Good luck!  :salute:

 

I know the DO staff will want to see your Han snap. It's obscured by the chest plate in each photo. It's high on the abdomen on the side that opens.

Thank you! Could you tell me what the Han snap is? I'm not familiar with that term, but will grab a picture of it once I figure it out.

Sometimes referred to as the "Han" snap, for Level 3 a single male snap on the top right corner of the ab plate is present Note in the photos that it is the bottom of the snap that faces outward and is not painted.  This is also sometimes referred to as the "Han" snap.

Hi Alfredo. 

While we start with your request,  could you add a picture of the helmet where we can see "well" the lower screw of the ears (both sides)?

Hi Alfredo. Those pictures are perfect!

One last favor. Could you add a picture like this so we can see the rivets perfectly?

Thank you for your patience.;)

Hi Alfredo, 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!  :salute:

 

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 we start with the review, we would like to congratulate you, your armor looks great!:th_AnimatedBravoSmiley:

 

-Starting with the helmet, it looks like you're wearing it too high. By wearing the helmet so high, too much of the neck seal is visible. If possible, we recommend that you remove some of the inner padding of the helmet (upper area) so that it sits a little lower.:duim:

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Reference images

2Xd8C07.png   ezKl7ns.png     7IwSddg.png   c9Ov0BU.jpg

 

-You can add a black mesh behind the teeth to prevent people (especially children) from seeing our faces. This is a suggestion to "preserve the magic" ;).

 

                                                                                                                                                                   Reference images

cWrg6EX.jpg                                                 UaEN2vL.jpg

 

 

-It looks like the clips on your TD are a bit detached. It may be an optical effect, but if not, you can unscrew the clips, give them the correct shape and put them back on. You can take a look at the reference images to see its ideal position.;)

 

                                                                                                                                                                                               Reference images 

J4E668b.jpg   8ku613I.jpg                   qx7NEjw.png   PNEgG5u.png

 

-A very easy fix. Make sure the calf ridges are aligned. The appearance of your armor will be greatly improved.:jc_doublethumbup:

 

                                                                                                                              Reference images

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************

 

 

 

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.   

 

-L3.The plastic shoulder straps need to be held down in the back via a white elastic band to the white fabric that connects/bridges the chest and back piece.

Although it looks like those elastics are there, in the Centurion application we will need a better picture. You can place those elastics a little further back, so they will help the shoulder straps to go down to touch the armor. If not, you can give them a little heat (very carefully and little by little) to give them the correct shape. ;)

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                   Reference images

TNkApT4.png   s153e59.jpg                                q1ZBoBx.jpg   tZUuh7f.png 

       

 

-It appears that the left side of this area opens slightly outward. Probably by applying a little heat (very carefully so as not to melt the ABS, even a hair dryer would probably do the trick),  would be sufficient to be able to return the proper shape to that part of the armor.  :duim:                                                                                                                                                        

 

                                                                                                                                Reference images

Ot6Vvh0.png                             n938OSK.png   FoGNbDy.png

 

-This is one of the points that we DOs try to avoid, but in this case it is necessary, as it is far from its optimal position. L3. A single male snap on the top right corner of the ab plate is present.

You should remove the snap from its current positionb, fill the hole with abs (or similar) and make another one as close as possible to the upper right corner of the ab plate. It looks more complicated than it is, really. 

 

                                                                                                                               Reference images

ScS7wFn.jpg                                                   SWbxKRR.jpg   clukeJB.png

 

-In the case of the 6-rivet pack, the same is true as in the previous case. We believe that in your case, they are too far away from their ideal position and therefore, you will have to move them. In the first reference image, you can see the measures considered "optimal" for its repositioning. As in the previous point (Han snap), it will be necessary to fill the holes and make new ones. :smiley-sw013:

BaChsvG.jpg                                  UqrOtpX.jpg    COnHzYB.png   Bvktue8.png    Gcqdxv8.jpg   

 

-L3 Abdominal and Kidney Plate align horizontally at top.

Your left side is perfect. Only a small adjustment will be needed on the right side.:th_AnimatedBravoSmiley:

 

                                                                    Perfect!                                                                         Reference images

rqhuzvN.png   rpB8Irq.jpg                      U6bpo5U.png   9uJkFTh.png

 

 

-This is a very easy issue to fix.  L3-The top of the ABS ammo belt should sit at or just above the bottom of the central and vertical abdomen button panels.

You can put some Velcro on the inside of the belt to keep it in it ideal position.:duim:

 

 

                                                                                                                                                                                  Reference images

ANaxPI8.png               JRgsIBN.png   VrmOMhr.png

 

-L3.Drop boxes are vertically aligned with the end of the ammo belt with minimal gap between belt and box.

It is very little, but you can glue the elastic to the belt (a few drops of hot glue or similar on the inside of the belt) and then, the boxes will not move from their position.

   

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Reference images

8jpyq7Q.png   HIYxpg3.png   XP8uyhm.jpg                     CdmE46H.png   jVxyzqM.png

 

-L3.The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt.

You will need to trim the abs of the belt a little so that the corners match the cloth belt.:duim:

 

                                                                                                                                                                          Reference image

h2icutQ.png   1jFC9fY.png                                          YNTQgkj.jpg

 

-There appears to be some weathering on the grip. L3.-"....T-tracks and grips shall be of a black plastic appearance with no silver/metallic weathering allowed.".

A small coat of black paint will do the trick. Very, very easy...;)

                                                                                                                               Reference images

3dxtGyi.jpg                       9qNUe4g.png   PIgrHnk.jpg

 

 

 

 

Nothing more to add Alfredo. Congratulations, now, you have the  badge under your name :th_AnimatedBravoSmiley:.  

We are sure you will soon apply for the Centurion badge as well:Stormtrooper_walk_south:.

 

 

 

Don't forget to request your EIB certificate :

-L3.The corners of the plastic ammo belt shall be trimmed at a 45 degree angle that that meets the outer edge of the cloth belt.

You will need to trim the abs of the belt a little so that the corners match the cloth belt.:duim:

-There appears to be some weathering on the grip. L3.-"....T-tracks and grips shall be of a black plastic appearance with no silver/metallic weathering allowed.".

A small coat of black paint will do the trick. Very, very easy...;)

Nothing more to add Alfredo. Congratulations, now, you have the  badge under your name :th_AnimatedBravoSmiley:.  

We are sure you will soon apply for the Centurion badge as well:Stormtrooper_walk_south:.

 

 

 

Don't forget to request your EIB certificate :

 

 

Thank you for taking the time to review my EIB application, as well as providing all of the Centurion requitements. A lot of work and detail went into the your response, and I won't let it go to waste! I'll definitely start focusing on fixing up the armor to improve the overall look, i.e. helmet position, teeth mesh, etc. I'm super stoked to be a member of the EIB rank, thanks again!
