    @Javier have you checked this thread for that harness?:

    As long as it has all the aspects of the CRL covered I don't see why not, however, I don't think I've heard of anyone converting a Black Series helmet over for the shadow scout. However, that doesn't mean that it hasn't happened though. @RAIDER have you heard of anyone doing this?

    Hello all! Our team has had much discussion about the hard armor coloration of the IAT Andor CRL where we reviewed recently posted references from members as well as previous discussions on the initial CRL development thread. That initial CRL development thread had a very extensive coloration discussion which included various paint swatches and colors/brands that would most accurately represent the costume as we see it on the screen. This led the development of the text in its current form within the CRL. With the evidence we were provided, we felt that including the text "very dark grey" is better suited to ensure that the armor was not painted a flat black/matte black as that was no the true representation of how the costume has appeared within the shots that we have collected since the episode(s) aired. However, this does not limit it to a very grey with a prevalent black tone (after all, adding more black to white makes it more gray), as well as the inclusion of greenish undertones as acceptable; thus we made an "acceptable range" of colors to include RLM 70 to Sherwin Williams SW6994 Greenblack, or equivalent. This will allow for a much easier time globally for troopers to procure the proper coloration for their kits. At this time we are keeping the text as it is currently written for the basic (L1) text to state very dark grey with the additional text about undertones and acceptable/equivalent range of colors.

    For googles and lenses I know that @Kessel listed out some stuff on his thread:

    To add on to what @RAIDER said, since the original builder moved on we'd definitely need someone else to pickup the torch. 3D print is probably the way to go at this point as you mentioned, unless you are able to vacuform plastic

    @Fivezero Tyyyyyyy! You're so close haha

    Onto the Back Armor now: The purple text that was added was to be consistent with the changes we made for the Chest Armor. This will allow for L2 to have it slotted into the armor. Back Armor Realistic style back armor. Armor is painted satin black. Back has a detail plate with four circles on top, two elongated areas on the lower left, and vents on the lower right. Back and chest armor match together at the sides with no open gap. A seam line is present. Shoulder straps are slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points or attached behind them. Armor has little to no weathering. Any weathering present consists of grey tones. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Shoulder straps must be slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points.

    Thanks for the nudge! Life has been a kick in the nuts lately, so I'm sorry for that. Let me push it!

    We will officially be posting reference images into a thread here very soon. There is a general waiting period prior to us talking to LMOs to give them a chance to view and take in the details.

    This has been completed.

    Good work this far!!
  14. IcyTrooper
    Awesome!

    The never-ending journey! We are all there striving for perfection. Love it!

    I do agree with that assessment! I'm going to tweak it a little bit more to make it a shall/will be rather than a should, so that someone doesn't take it as optional Chest Armor Realistic style Chest Armor. Armor is painted satin black. Two pill shaped recesses on the lower outside edge of the right pectoral area. Chest and back armor match together at the sides with no open gap. A seam line is present. Shoulder straps are slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points or attached behind them. Bottom edges will be beveled, as should be the lower edge of the raised chest section. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Shoulder straps must be slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points.

    Hello again! I spoke with the DCA team again today and we are going to be working the photos (and requesting additional ones as needed) to update the text for the helmet! We are still talking about the blasters.
  18. IcyTrooper
    Good luck, my friend!!

    I'm ready to see another 000!

    I totally meant to put "satin" only for it, I copied and pasted at work when I was doing another task, doh! I revised according to the discussion but also allowed for the ability to attach behind for L1 as to me the appearance of either looks right. We could maybe drive that it must be slotted through for L2? Chest Armor Realistic style Chest Armor. Armor is painted satin black. Two pill shaped recesses on the lower outside edge of the right pectoral area. Chest and back armor match together at the sides with no open gap. A seam line is present. Shoulder straps are slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points or attached behind them. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Shoulder straps must be slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points.

    Onto the Chest Armor text! Chest Armor Realistic style Chest Armor. Armor is painted matte or satin black. Two detail slots on the lower outside edge of the right pectoral area. Chest and back armor match together at the sides with no open gap. A seam line is present. Shoulder straps are slotted into the detail ridges of the top connection points.

    It may be able to go a little tighter, but honestly, with the animation style a lot of things look pretty tight and could be unrealistically tight.
  23. IcyTrooper
    I think that it looks good for the shape and with the lines! I agree with the red being deeper, cameras do some good tricks with red.
  24. IcyTrooper
    I've been trying to figure out what pistol 1 is but pistol 2 looks like a modified version of a E-5 blaster rifle. Pistol 1 may be like a carbine version of the DC-15.

    We have had extensive debate on this topic and have not yet come to a resolution on the addition of the black color. However, one could paint it a very dark gray shade that is close to black and I don't see why there wouldn't be an issue. We establish the CRL as a guideline for the GMLs based on the best evidence that we have at the time and your GML will ultimately be responsible for the approval of the costume, not the detachment. Not sure why it was necessary to post that you are just going to paint it however you feel it should be.
