  1. We'll look into the decals size, I do see the difference there. I don't really agre with the teeth, It seems to be the lighting on the texture map. We'll take a look at it.
  2. This was on deviant art and he claims this was a random house/del ray commission for promo posters of the phasma book and that seems to be supported by the below article.. But, might not be enough for a full write up. http://comicbook.com...-the-last-jedi/
  3. Unfortunately, we can't build CRLs off of action figures alone. If a non-figure source comes out supporting the Inferno Squad Agent then we can move on that.
  4. Stole one of your pics and attached it to the CRL as an example for the LMOs.
  5. Yeah, we can be more exacting for a level 2 when we find something closely matching the sources.
  6. Keep gathering resources. We need to find some back and side shots.
  7. Instead of defining the pouches I replaced it with: 2 rectangular pouches with a top flap, and strap from top to bottom securing it shut. That should allow people to find or create something that fits the references.
  8. Nice! I like it! Cool. Just saw the updated first post!
  9. I think those look cool. They resemble the pouches he has, maybe stick a small piece of cardboard in it to keep a box like shape. I'd fully support their approval.
  10. Awesome, man. Post pics! I can't wait to see it!
  11. For reference as everyone is building. Yes, there will be changes to all future CRLs and the current Imperial Army Trooper CRL, to bring them inline for accuracy. In regards to the current IA Trooper CRL: When we have the exact changes figured out and approved by the LMO, we will announce a grace period of time where approvals will still be accepted under the previous CRL standards for the Trooper and the "Officer Configureation." We are not planning on an "overnight" change that will cancel your current costume build's ability for approval. As for CRLs for IA costumes that are not yet approvable through the Legion, yes changes will be made and you will be expected to build what is finalized by the LMOs when the CRL goes live. You can either wait for LMO approval or expect to make changes as the CRL is developed. (i.e. adding cargo pockets to the legs). It should "appear" as if it's a work grade material. In the end, it's all how it sits on your frame. If it looks like a light material and is wilting, then I probably wouldn't use it. If it give the appearance of a stiffer more rugged material like a work or military jumpsuit would be made out of, I'd say go ahead and use it. Again, if the hat looks right I see no problem with it being made from that same material. In the comic panels the materials seem to match.
  12. The top image is of a normal Imperial Army Trooper, as you see his pouches are very plain with a simple snap closure, and the way they hang suggests that they are indeed cloth pouches. There are no plans to change the pouch requirement on the Imperial Army Trooper. Lt. Sunber is a costume unique to the comics and his character. Which is why received an LMO ruling for him to be a unique character. Unique to his outfit are pouches that hold a shape, with the center strap. This CRL is not yet live or approved by the LMOs. If you are building to be Lt. Sunber, there will be changes made as the CRL is being developed. If you are building to the current CRL, you don't have to worry. No, you don't get "stripped of approval" all approved costumes are approved for use in the Legion for the life of the costume. Doesn't matter if CRL details are changed afterwards. This CRL is not a live CRL, and all officer configurations are not currently judged by this document. They are judged by the "Officer Configuration" found in the current Imperial Army Trooper CRL: http://databank.501s...al_army_trooper If you are currently building to the specs shown in that CRL, then you'll be able to get approved under the guidelines for that CRL. If the CRL changes, we will formally announce the time of the change and give you time to finish your costume and get approved under the current CRL.
  13. Found this which may be really close to what we're looking for. I don't like the zipper around it, but it's closer in shape with the front flap and strap across the front. https://tacticalgear...-pouch-od-green
  14. If we can find or make a similar nylon pouch and build a form to create the right shape, that's definitely a possibility. The SKS pouches were more to show the general shape and form we're going for, not saying to use that exact item. If you want to be approved under the current "Officer" standards, then yes. It is a race against the clock. When we have this figured out and it is approved by the LMO team, we will also be announcing a grace period for people who are currently working on costumes under the current standards to finish and be approved. So you're currently looking at at least a couple months worth of time to race against for completion.
  15. Locked a new CRL will be posted shortly with changes made after input from the LMO.
  16. Upon discussion with the LMOs, this uniform is considered unique to one character, and has been changed from a generic officer to "Lieutenant Janeck Sunber." I see what your saying. Guess I should have googled the pouches as well. The reference material pouches are more rectangular holding a box shape with a strap down the front. We may have to look for something more in line with the comics. Possibly something like this dyed green. Reference:
  17. I understand what you're saying, and I agree on that point. As an optional accessory, either should be able to be carried. Maybe we can require a comic style for level 2. Definitely worth further discussion from detachment members No, this isn't clearly identified, as no one has made one as of yet. It should look close to the pouch seen in the comic. Right now, keep tossing ideas out there, whether it's something scratch-built, store bought, or modified. Unfortunately with new costumes sometimes you have to see it all together. Also CRLs get stricter as techniques are developed and parts are found the make accuracy more widely available.
  18. The problem with that is there is no other "Army Officer" shown in this outfit, or even something similar. All other officers are always dressed in the standard officer tunic. So either this look is Sunber, or it's generic. There's no point in building the same CRL twice with different names. As for the cargo pockets, they are on every single jumpsuit. The fact that they are a part of the base suit pattern isn't in question, so they need to stay. That being said, this isn't an "official" change yet, so if you're pretty much done with your outfit, you can get it into your GML and have it approved under the current standards.
  19. I actually have a call with an LMO schedule and am going to ask if this should be a CRL for Sunber, since it seems to be a style unique to him, or if it's safe to assume this would be available to other officers in the Imperial Army. As far as the comlink goes: yes, artistic license has been taken and when adding real world logic you can see how this comlink: becomes this: Granted, I'm not saying we can't create something more accurate to the look in the comic, but I do feel the classic imperial style comlink should be acceptable for wear.
  20. Awesome! Welcome to the crew. Be sure to request your detachment access.
  21. Updated today. Please have a look and post your thoughts. Be sure to check the visual references.
  22. Because the IA Units do not have a vest or anything to help give that it's a shirt, the official stance I will take is that it needs to be a one piece coveralls/jumpsuit style. It's too easy for a shirt to start blousing out and then it's obviously not a jumpsuit... However, that is also a conversation to have with your GML. Thought we make strong suggestions, the GMLs and LMOs have final say.
