  1. Theres lots of files out there. cults, thingverse etc
  2. DLT 19 printing is in progress on my bambu printer and I just ordered a E11 holster from Darmans Props
  3. a regular scout belt is approvable at the l1 level for basic approval per the crl There are some differences in the overbelt especially those end boxes. And the whole thing is overall smaller than a regular scout i have the gameplay pulled up on youtube right now watching it. Over Belt The Over Belt consists of 5 gloss black boxes made of ABS or similar plastic, mounted to a leather or leather like waist strap which closes under the thermal detonator. The waist strap is approximately 1.5" (40mm) wide. The over belt is worn around the under belt, so that the top third of the under belt shows above the over-belt. There are special-shaped boxes on left and right of the 3 central boxes which are horizontal in position as seen in reference photos. A total of 8 rivets are present with 2 rivets mounted vertically on the left and right at the edge of the special-shaped boxes. Hanging from the right side of the belt is a hip box made out of hard material. This is connected to the belt by 1.5" (40mm) wide black leather or leather-like straps. The strap is and as long as necessary to allow the box to hang on the wearers right hip. For basic L1 approval a standard Scout style hip box may be approved. The strap is attached to the front of the over-belt through a slot on the right side of the central box. The back end of the strap goes behind the under-belt, to the left side of the thermal detonator. The hip box strap has 1.5" (40mm) quick release buckles on the front and back. Each buckle is attached at the mid point of the strap.
  4. Im doiing mine this weekend, finished off printing Kailees TL50 for her Iden now Im onto Dels DLT. I think I might have the same files, the scope is a LOT of sanding to make it round. The file seemed low-poly. Anyway, good thing I rpinted with like 4 walls so I can burn through walls to make it round. Ill post m own work as I go on my own topic.
  5. hey Ty I downloaded and printed a TL50 for my freind Kaylee she has an Iden and Ill have my Del soon. Im printing my DLT19 now. I have it all printed out, but Im not sure if this is your model or not. It came with a bunch of options including a wood stock remix.
  6. im really interested to see how the belt prints out. I need to print a regular scout belt for my shadow and Im using mr poopys files, but i havnet run it yet. Im curoius if it will be flexible at all.
  7. good morning and welcome! yes, Gerald is correct. Just becase Shep studios made the originals for ANH '77 does not mean its the "most accurate" in 2025. Check out the suppliers list, and keep us up to date on your progress.
  8. i had printed a bunch of those zip tie holders for my own scout project, so this affirms what I was planning. Smart idea!
  9. Im not a Wier, and I may be wrong, so we need der experten in on this, but it may refer to the domed detail part, not the tank topper itself. Looking at our CRL Gallery which is supposed to be set to L2 the tank topper is in place. i see the zip ancor riveted in, where would you put the other for the elastic?
  10. wow, had no idea Spat was making this. Considering webbing is like 40 cents per foot and triglides are a couple of bucks, 45 plus shipping handling and wait time is pretty hefty for a project that will not take more than ten minutes to make. This is for my Engineer but otherwise its indentical. I wrote both CRLs and I have all three versions of the Army trooper from the comics, this is the simplest part of the entire costume.
  11. Mike I ran it on the Bambu last night in high speed PLA+. Two seconds of sanding, two coats of primer and a coat of paitn and it will be perfect! Thank you for sharing this with the community!!!
  12. I'll share the first new updated print off of the Del buckle STL. Two coats of primer and some paint and this will be ready to mount. I didnt get a pic of the four square openings on the bottom but they are square and look correct per the game model. You can link back to the file Mike Ford made here
  13. I thougth I already started this....who knows I probably didnt mash the SEND IT!! button hard enough. Ok, heres the breakdown: Green- in hand Amber- in progress / ordered Red-figgerin' it out as I go Helmet - Pilot Bay Armor - Pilot Bay Overbelt-Pilot Bay Underbelt-I have old belts laying about Thermal detonator - Pilot Bay Balaclava - Amazon Flight Suit - Jim Tripon Compad - 3d printed Gloves - in progress gloves from amazon that need to be modded with the slit Tactical vest - a big pile of fabric on my table Shoulder ammo pouch - uhhhhhhhhhhhh..............working on it Holster - Darmans props Boots - Crow Props DLT-19-I have filament and im not afraid to use it Thermal detnator-its the CRL model
  14. Printing out the upgraded buckle STL. Ill post pics later, and Ill include it with a linkback in my own WIP
  15. Im knees deep in my own! Im glad to see this wip! I held a Wampawear inferno / Iden suit today and its very soft/ light/ non structured. Im very curious how your crow suit will be. I orderd a Jim Tripon suit last night for my own build, and ill be evaluating that suit once I get it. Thanks so much for posting, we need more Dels!
  16. HI Chris welcome, im elbows deep in my own Del, and I wrote the CRL. So, with an Iden here who has literally BEGGED me to be her Del, I guess "were getting a Del!" I got Pilotbays new armor molds so I dont have anything printed for this build other than the special buckle half for the tacvest. Im not sure what Im looking at with that first link. That is Mudtrooper/ ICAT/ Security trooper style armor with a box setup on the back like we see on all those mentioned costumes. The actual chest for Del is modified TX armor like our shadowtroopers wear, but sligttly differnt, Looking at the armor over on Cgtrader the typical Tk belt is hask / iden style not Del. The scout style belt Del uses is smaller than a typical scout belt and the end boxes are a different shape. A standard Scout belt may be used for basic approval, but the smaller, specific belt is needed for L2. The Etsy file doesnt look too bad for the belt, but the boxes are very tall. Id be temped to print them at reduced hieght, slice off te belt part and bond it all to a new abs "belt" that way you have the hieght. The drop box is smaller than normal, and it has a bit curved cutout at the top edg, and is backed/ closed up but you can do that with sign plastic the helmet is smallre and rounder. its a specific shape. A R1 style TIE helmet will suffice for basic approval and we wrote the CRL that way but the game helmet is small. Im a TIE, have been since day 1 and Im also an ATAT driver, (same helmet) and they are huge. this new helmet I got is so tight it tears my ears off and my eyelashes touch the lens, so per the game model its a small helmet. For me, the last few weeks have been a suit search. Per the CRL and per all the references we worked from writing the CRL the suit is stiff and heavy cotton canvas with the nubs in the weave. The closest canvas I have found that meets this is heavy sail canvas , like the stuff Rothco uses for those parachute bags or for old military vintage tool/ gun cleaning bags. I ordered a Jim Tripon siut last night,and i asked for special mods in the suit to shoot for L2 approval. ill review it once I get it. Today I held my freinds Iden suit from Wampawear, and its soft, light and has a very soft drape and hand- definitely not the heavy structured suit we would look for for Level 2 approval. I have not seen/held a Crowprops suit or HerotecX suit so I cant comment. I am working on updating the Del vendor list and have already made some changes to it. It had been a few years and an update was due. Im looking forward to your progress!
  17. yeah so I ran it as both a MM size (massive) and inch size (micro) . Odd! also Ive just spent the last hour looking for MP 40 pouches. green grey khaki and blue are common, but no black. Have you sourced yours?
  18. ok,wow thats great and thank you for that! I had one I printed split right at that split line. Im going to run this file tonight. TYVM! update- when ipulled it into Slic3r it didnt know what size to make it. I converted it to MM and its printing about 50 % on and 50% off the bed. Each tile stands about a foot tall. im going to empty the build plate and load the files again.
  19. hard to say. honestly been buying warhammer figures on Etsy lately, resin prints and the shop is in Ukraine. Takes a few weeks to get them but quality is superb.
  20. as a Del builder I really appreciate the work you put into this file. The latest version with the open slots really sells it. Well done and thank you.
  21. ok so i ran the file in extra draft mode with a .6 nozzle on my E3 using cheap pla at fairly high speed. here are the reference bits: our CRL gallery reference , likley using Hyperspace Props offereing : and my result printed at 100% Ill run it at home on my Bambu in black and see how it looks that way. Im sure it will look better. I would love feedback on this.
  22. thanks Mike I can run this on my printer here at work
