Congrats on the approval!!

We have the CRL text loaded into the wiki and are preparing the final images before LMO review

Great job representing the detachment! @SirCalcium

I'd say that dye job is a job well done!

I love seeing resin prints, they are always soooo smooth!

We can use this thread for 3D modeling questions and the like. @HidingInCosplay @Chaos @Andreas Funk

@Chaos thanks for the tag in on it! I'm a little hesitant on using this thread to work on the 3D modeling of the costume. I'd like to keep this thread for pulling the reference images out and then drafting the text. I'll go ahead and create a 3D modeling development thread for the past few questions. @Andreas Funk

As @Gree23 mentioned, all black. We also have some alternate angle images in the CRL gallery as well: https://databank.501st.com/databank/CRL_Gallery:Shadow_Scout

Congrats!

This has been completed.

Dang, that is looking solid!!! 🖤

Congrats!

Yeah this is an interesting one for me, it is such a small detail for a differentiation between the two. I almost want to allow current E-10.5 for both the IAT:A and IST and perhaps we can modify the base CRL to state that it may have the rail and flashlight, or something along those lines? Another route could be using the IAT:A CRL E-10.5 base text and then modifying the L2 requirements to specifically show that it is different from the IAT:A CRL E-10.5? I know that FISD has a different E-11 CRL for ANH, ROTJ, ESB for example; but I feel like that may be unnecessary for such a small detail change.

Posting it here for detachment visibility but I had a chat with the JRS DL and him and his team are in support of the Spec Ops detachment requesting the Imperial Special Forces costume for detachment placement when it comes to the LMOs. We'll do an official request in the near future.

Just an update to this that we are almost done wrapping up the text and will get the CRL wiki created. We will need to get a CRL model for the picture aspect of it and start getting that in order.

I say they look good, may want to blend the mud in a few spots on the right boot so that it looks like it was naturally occurring rather than painted on, but a lot better!

Just an update that we are still working on this. We'll have some feedback soon.

@Blackwatch I think that text looks good.

I agree with both of you. That is very similar to how we have developed the Purge trooper CRLs and updates, by utilizing the clone stuff and modifying it as it fits.

I agree, that is the consideration. We are going to take a look at that this weekend with some of the DCA training we have going on.

I know that in some places, as long as it isn't visible, some makers make some of the suits mesh in certain spots to help with the heat. As long as it isn't visible with the costume on then that would be fine. For example, my Rogue One Tank Driver has a mesh top where the arms and visible spots resemble the CRL and the non-visible spots are mesh (e.g., stuff hidden within the ab/side/kidney armor, etc.)

We are currently going through the images and setting up the CRL wiki template. The LMOs are aware that the new CRL wiki is in progress. Once we get the text and images within the CRL we will notify the LMOs and they will do final reviews of that wiki prior to final publication and public facing.

E-11 Blaster Manufactured by BlasTech Industries, the E-11 is standard-issue for many Imperial troops. Light, compact yet powerful, the E-11 blaster is always in high demand throughout the galaxy. Based on a real or replica Sterling Airsoft Gun, Sterling Sub-Machine Gun, scratch-built, or a modified commercial toy Stormtrooper blaster. A small flashlight shall be mounted on the right side of the blaster centred over the T-Tracks. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Blaster shall be based on a real or replica S&T Sterling L2A1 AEG Airsoft Gun. (Folding Stock does not need to function) D-Ring shall be present on the rear end cap. Scope shall be a real or replica M.H.R. (Minneapolis Honeywell Regulator Co.) M38 Telescope. 1943 model is preferred. Counter shall be a real or replica Hengstler 400 Series counter. Eagle logo is preferred. Power Cylinders shall be mounted on top of the magazine well. R1 style power cylinders are preferred over ANH style. 6 rows of T-Tracks cover the Sterling receiver holes except for the lower left row with the bayonet lug. Flashlight shall be a real or replica Element M300A Mini Scout Light. Scope shall be a real or replica 1943 M.H.R. Co. M38 Telescope, 1942 model is not allowed. Counter shall be a real or replica Hengstler 400 Series counter with Small eagle logo. Large eagle logo is not allowed. Power Cylinders shall be R1 style, ANH style is not allowed. 3D printed blasters can not contain visible print lines and must be sanded smooth for a more realistic appearance. E-11D Blaster Modified E-11. The main barrel is extended from in front of the power cell. The barrel extension has elongated slots cut into it along each side. A Surefire M300 Mini Scout tactical light or equivalent is fitted to the barrel extension. A resin cast is acceptable. The folding stock is in place. It is fitted with a HK416c retractable stock or similar. Laser pointer fitted below barrel with optional working red LED to front. All decals/painted details and striping are in place. The red stripe located towards the rear of the barrel behind the magazine just prior to the stock extension may be substituted with a red LED lighted strip. The two yellow squares inside a red outlined square located towards the rear of the barrel behind the magazine may be substituted with two yellow LED lighted squares. Working red LEDs fitted into the prongs of the counter unit are optional. Weathering is optional but where done the barrel scorching must be evident. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): All LED, laser pointer, and flashlight options will be working. The blaster will be the same size and proportions as the Sterling SMG which the blaster is patterned on. Its overall length with the shoulder stock extended should be between 30" to 32” (76-82cm).

Yeah if the blasters used match the ones that were already seen on screen we can definitely use CRLs text and images that were already created.

The CRL has been updated with both next text and new pictures. It may take a bit for the servers to refresh the cache and propagate across the internet. Well done @TK 21814!!!
