  1. Glad to see someone is working on it again! We can hopefully get it across the finish line. The CRL text here isn't finalized, so we did the best of what we could on a quick port over, but if the sources show what you are showing (plus the image you linked on another reply), we can still make adjustments and refine it.
  2. Thanks for the clarification, I'm good with the text! I have updated the main text section on the 2nd page. I think we are onto the Hands next?
  3. Excellent! We'll be here when you get it rolling
  4. In my experience with the straps, they either come as you have as straight straps or they come with the wedge connectors already molded into them. The ones with them molded on allow you to attach them via Velcro or magnets. For yours, I'd probably just trim them down since they are feeding into the back armor and that'd fix the floating issue you have.
  5. Have you tried putting a tinting film on the backside of it? That can usually darken it for you.
  6. Very nice, I think you get rid of that decorative stuff (as noted) then you are well on your way!
  7. I got to check that Bicep section out! I do have a question about the text that I have made red. With the mirror image part, is this a double negative if the preceding bullet point says they are not interchangeable? I could just be reading it wrong. I think the rest of it reads well. Forearm Armor Gloss black in color unless noted below. May be painted in accordance with the Color Scheme Guide. If used, all armor pieces must be painted using the Color Scheme Guide. Proportional to the rest of the costume. Forearms may be slightly weathered but must be uniform with the rest of the costume. One on each forearm, they are not interchangeable. Each forearm is a mirror image of the other. Forearms have an elongated rectangular appearance with the upper (elbow) end wider than the lower (wrist) end. There is a raised band around the upper section approximately 1/5th the length of the total forearm. The rear panel is smooth with no details. The front panel has an elongated rectangular recess with a piston like detail insert. The insert is painted metallic black or silver. The inside panel has an elongated rectangular recess approximately 3/4" to 1 1/5" (20mm to 30mm) wide which starts at the raised band and runs the length of the forearm ending at the wrist. The front panel has a raised panel detail. The panel has a horizontal rectangle cut out positioned in the upper 1/3rd of the panel and a square cut out positioned in the bottom half similar in appearance to the bicep raised panel. The raised panel is painted metallic black, matte black, or dark gray. Both have a horizontal rectangle cut out positioned in the upper 1/3rd of the panel and a square cut out positioned in the bottom half.
  8. Let's get a working group going for this when the new term kicks in. I have to get movement going again on the Gen 3 Dark Trooper.
  9. For my shadow stormtrooper helmet I've used military helmet pads similar to the ones here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004RCLM8Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (these aren't available at the moment) They are attached via Velcro around the top of the helmet.
  10. Generally, you can do whatever is necessary to maintain proper proportions and still be good (as long as all the other detail requirements are met). What @tipperaryred said is sound advice to tag in your GML into your plans as they will ultimately be the ones approving it. We can provide guidance to all along the way
  11. Thanks for this amazing write-up and attention to detail! I'll review this with the team!
  12. @DarthBerry nice! Let me look over this with the team, I like it! The only thing that could require some changes are the boots with the black strap, it should go all the way around over the seam. I'll get back to you before that though!
  13. Thanks for the tag! I can check with the LMOs and with the FISD DL, but based on what I'm seeing, this will most likely go to FISD. The rationale will be that despite the description, much of the components are basic TK components with little variation (Task Force TKs have a lot more differences).
