Justified- Real men don't have bedtimes.
Combat Junkies- While the plate carrier that you have there isn't "wrong" in any way, I just find it sort of boring. Maybe it is just all the tan, coupled with my recent fascination with Multicam. Once you start adding the smaller detail bits, it will look more cohesive. Look into some ASP Tri-Fold restraints, or some IR cyalume sticks.
Other than that, it looks pretty slick. Nice work.

Yeah the 6094 does look a tad different. Is it cut for swimmer plates or something?

I'm definitely not a ranger pro but it just looks off to me.

Because it is. Shingle should be EI, and the beanie is just there in place of an actual helmet (And to control my hair). The PCU technically should be ORC, but Beyond is used for unusual sizes, which I am.
I also really need the RBSS back plate and MSAP cummerbund, which will come in the somewhat near future.
This is more of a WIP, but its to the point where I could actually play with it.

One thing most of these impressions lacks, age!

I'd rather see young guys trying to get some impression going instead of creepy old dudes.

Itallian- Not to bust your balls but First- take your hands out of your pockets. One of the first things you learn the hard way as a soldier is that if you have time to put your hands in your pockets is you have time to do push-ups or flutter kicks. I spent one of my first days at Battalion picking up pine cones all day for making that mistake because it was cold out. Second- either leave your pants fully unbloused or tuck in your blousing straps. Don't have them tucked into your boot strings. If you want to dress like a soldier try your best to look the part.

Yeah, I usually have my hands on a rifle, so it just felt odd letting them hang there. 'specially near midnight and half asleep I assume the blousing straps are the little strings at the bottom of the trousers? I tried them the first few times I wore them, but they do nothing but come undone so I gave up. They're not tucked in the laces, just looks like that for some reason. Boots are just dusty. Honestly, I straight up just don't care enough to take a tooth brush to them. Since they've done nothing but get caked in mud the past few weekends, theres really no point. Like I said, its really a 'check point' pic if you will. By no means is it a proper photo shoot for an impression.

Wouldn't muddy boots be more betterer anyways doods? Worn gear is more legit imo. When did you impreshun guys get so diva?
On a serious note, that loadout is looking really nice Italian. I never thought acu's could look so good. Are you running a back plate or is it just crossed up like a badass?
