Loving the progress of this build!

I am not sure which bucket you went with or if these fit? You would need to put some tint in them to obscure your eyes better, but they look acceptable. http://www.opleprops.com/product_info.php?info=p325_ople-props-deathtrooper-rogue-one-bulbed-lense-anovos-trooper-helmetlense-lense-costume-helmet-cosplay-krennic-death-trooper-rogueone-green-accurate-501st.html

The people who are involved in that project appear to have gone underground. They don't seem to be interested in sharing anything with the detachment so I wouldn't hold my breath, stick to what is tried and true IMO. Raise it on the Facebook group if you're really interested.

Are there any reference pics that we can align with the text. I think it would be useful to be able to see the linkage between the references and how we got to the text. At the moment I am having trouble trying align a library of pictures with details for each piece. Thanks

Nice work! So a DT Specialist Specialist!

You can use belt leather. I got mine from a specialty leather place. Can’t even remember what it was I got

The Spec Ops Detachment does not endorse any Vendor over any others. It is up to you the Trooper to do the research and exercise due diligence when purchasing any products from Vendors. The Spec Ops Detachment does not get involved in any disputes that a customer may have with a Vendor and even though these Vendors are considered to be in “Good Standing,” it is not uncommon for issues to arise that must be worked out between the buyer and seller. The Spec Ops Detachment endorses a “Buyer Beware” philosophy on any and all transactions.

Yes Endor Finders or Imperial Boots can supply gloves. Essentially it's exactly the same as the Death Trooper glove

So beautiful! I would be too scared to wear this in fear of weathering it!

I agree with @Chaos, your helmet is looking pretty good! Keep up the great work! I am planning on redoing an Anovos helmet to be more in line with some of the movie references where these areas are more black with some metal breaking through.

Yeah as @IcyTrooper said you can mount the snaps to scrap ABS and then glue them in, or alternatively you can mount them to some webbing and glue the webbing in. This worked well with my Death Trooper, you just need to make sure that you rough up the area you are gluing them to with some sandpaper.

I have split this conversation into a build thread - looks like you are off to a great start!

Yeah, totally agree with the above. I would love to see the new style armour start getting applied to some of our costumes. Our best hope will lay with all the new live action series like Mandalorian etc ?

@IcyTrooper thanks for sorting that out in my absence.

Yes well done @Hoda you did a great job! Your positive "can do" approach and swift response to the build is very commendable. Thank you for bringing this costume to life

I had a similar issue a couple of years back, I kept trying to polish it out and it kept coming back.

Looks like mold. You will need to get on top of that otherwise it will spread. Often it happens when leather is stored away for extended periods without any breathing space. You will need to kill all the spores and recondition the leather This article has a good approach: https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/www.bmscat.com/2019/07/how-to-remove-mold-from-leather/amp/

Bummer about missing pieces, hopefully it gets sorted quickly!

Awesome to see another Swampy! Looks like you're. off to a good start, good luck with the build!

Please extend our gratitude to the rest of the team and LadyB

Gonna lock this off now that the CRL is published

The Sith Trooper CRL is now live, please visit https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TX_Sith_Trooper This costume is also part of the Specialist Program! Thanks to @Spiel for being our model, he put in a lot of extra work to get the costume over the line. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the creation of this CRL, it is a costume that has a huge amount of detail and was easily the most difficult thing I have ever worked on. A few people worth mentioning here is @Spiel @gmrhodes13 @JoeShoe @JAFO @LVLAsian @Hask @Bear0902 Thanks to the CRL team as well @Blackwatch@IcyTrooper @rickyboyblue@RAIDER Also thanks to our LMO @ionicdesign for the last push over the line If there is anyone I missed from this list, please let me know and I will update it.

The placement of the decals is the same as the regular biker scout. I found this thread of particular interest: http://forum.501stpathfinders.com/index.php?/topic/21013-rotj-production-helmet/ Looks like you're bang on

looks good! Good luck with your submission

I know Walt posted videos to his timeline on how to assemble his Scout kits, but they are so hard to find! My Shadow Scout is also a WTF kit. If you go to WTF page and search for "Biker Helmet" and then filter all the posts to posted by "Walter Vongher" you should be able to scroll through and find his assembly vids. I cannot find a way to share them so you will have to find them yourself.
