BikerScout007 Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Hey buddy! Thanks so much for the application! It may be a bit before we can get to it due to elections, but we will try our best!
Chex Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Also, we'd need to see close ups of your boot soles, bund and pouch stitching as well. 1
Eyeslave Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 No worries guys, totally understand the wait. I hope these are sufficient
Stroker Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 I might get in trouble for this,but if I was you I'd throw up some pics of my armor pieces showing the strapping.

Eyeslave Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 No worries. Hope these are ok. Overcast today, so natural light is poor Lid Chin cup
Griffin-X Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Thanks for reaching out to me Alan. I have asked the command staff and lancer review team to provide some feedback. But things look pretty sharp to me. Do you have cutouts on the front of the boot soles? Also, is that a lens on the blaster scope?
Strider Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Nice looking scout! I like that you chose to go down the dirty road and use the off-white colours, nice touch. Here's a quick shopping list: Must haves for current Lancer standards: - Slots in the toes of the boots (as Griffin pointed out) - Knee guard strapping needs to be 20mm for the lower strap and 12mm (1/2 inch) for the upper strap - Shoulder straps should be 12mm (the straps that go around the arm) - The strapping of the lower und arm armor should be 25mm. Could you please clarify which strapping you used? - Your mud flap is a bit too long (please have a look at picture below for reference) Optional/ potential future improvements: - The shoulder bridge straps are too wide, they should be about 1 inch - Use of zip cable ties as attatchment method for the shoulder bells - The stitched chambers on the vest should be 1 inch apart from each other (similiar to the bund) - Trimming a slope to the shoulders (please see the pandatrooper tutorial eg) - The cod piece and the CB should be 2 different parts. Also the cod piece should be larger (please see reference on the 501st bikerscout CRL page) - The belt should sit at least an inch higher which would also require the pouched to be reduced in lenght. - You do have scope lenses in the blaster as current L2 CRL's require. However, this CRL is wrong and will need to be changed. The screen used blaster did not have this feature ;-) Cheers 2
Eyeslave Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks guys. Strapping was with the SC kit, but i can easily fix the sizing on those items you pointed out. Mud flap is easy enough to fix as well. Is there a good image or thread for the boot mod? I will look at the suggested mods as well. Lens on blaster just pops out, so that's easy.
Strider Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Great. Here's a link to a pair of original boots for reference: http://forum.bikerscout.net/index.php?showtopic=15980&view=findpost&p=149916 Cheers
Eyeslave Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 Must haves for current Lancer standards: - Slots in the toes of the boots (as Griffin pointed out) Hope this is correct - Knee guard strapping needs to be 20mm for the lower strap and 12mm (1/2 inch) for the upper strap - Shoulder straps should be 12mm (the straps that go around the arm) - The strapping of the lower und arm armor should be 25mm. New strapping added - Your mud flap is a bit too long (please have a look at picture below for reference) 2" taken off mud flap ******************* ] 1
Griffin-X Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks for working through the updates Alan. Stand by while the team reviews your progress!
Griffin-X Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Hey Alan, can we get a confirmation on the chest/back side webbing size? Everything else looks great, just need a confirmation on that last item.
Eyeslave Posted March 15, 2017 Author Posted March 15, 2017 No worries, also updated shoulder strap size and zip tie attachment 1
Griffin-X Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Thanks Alan, stand by while we finalize things on this end.
Griffin-X Posted March 16, 2017 Posted March 16, 2017 Alan, thanks for your application and for making the requested changes with your costume. You're done a great job and the team has awarded you the rank of Lancer. Now get out there and make us proud. Congrats!
