Welcome to spec ops, Nick.

Really great progress, Ty!

The first go was definitely an awesome start, but I agree with you, this is shaping up very nicely, Ty.

Sorry, the shoulder straps.

Awesome, Ty!

Still looking forward to see this one come to life. It's a ok Iller looking costume.

Cool, squirrel fans...I have one of those up front in mine, similar to Tony's setup and then I use a very low profile frameless fan in the back. This gets me some air rotation in my bucket. Tony's setup is very common too. Mine is more atypical, I'd say.

That's a matter of details. As the crl is now, there are only 2 or 3 details that would be considered level 2. I wouldn't mind more. I'll send you the draft so you can see it and provide feedback.

Those look pretty darn good. How is the width?

A lot of people use this info: http://www.studiocreations.com/howto/bikerscout/thecumberbund.html

That tends to be the natural rotation of those pieces. Getting your bund well supported so it stays up (I use suspenders) will be important.

Seriously, I love how shiny these pieces are. Looks grwat.

Thanks for thevinfo, Andrew. We've got a crl being worked on by our crl team and a first draft has gone up on the 501st site (not public yet). I'll review the items you mentioned below.

Hi Greg, the specialist variant is a part of the standard crl so it should go through your gml.

Depends what fans you are using. What do you have?

Didn't even realize we were talking scout í ½í¸®. Ya, you can scale the bells to fit you by trimming the bottom edge as Peter suggested.

The crl specifies gloss. There has only ever been the gentle giants statue...I think it's gentle giants...That had weathering. No one's created it yet to then get it added to the crl. I'd support adding it, though the weathering would need to match the statue exactly.

Nice. Congrats, Stephen!

Dang, paint job looks great!

Described as special operatives, but also described as proficient in aerial combat in addition to ground. Aerial combat suggest they are also pilots as well.

Are you able to tape the bells and bicep in place on you so we can see how they look? I've trimmed shoulders before and readded a slight return edge with a craft iron.

Nice find. Most people paint a black one, but Etsy will be so much simpler. I had an FX bucket originally too. Still have my FAX armor.

The LMO can approve the costume without it having a detachment.

Auto shop paint jobs are the best!
