Blackwatch

just re checked the link *things change*. I will be getting these on the next paycheck. hey guys, how is the size? I normally wear a large glove. Are they good to go according to US sizes?

after the server move it looks like your link is borked. its giving me a 404 error. I found size 13 boots and went for it! I should have them on Friday or Saturday of next week. Hope they fit!!

gotcha Ok, thanks Shane, but it never hurts to keep in contact.

I JUST posted a topic about this! I managed to order several for our local group but the need is definitely there and people are on hold at this time. I have my patches in front of me and they are 5.00" tall overall, and 2 7/8" wide overall. I think 3" would be realistic without noticing a difference in the overall shape of the patch. I personally really would like to keep the colors consistent so that people joining now with new patches would match Sebastions original run. I will go ahead and add your name to the post I made since you are "seeking patches" at this time.

I see this topic coming up quite a bit, and its not just from people here on this forum, but outside as well. *NOTE* Absolutely no bashing of any kind will be allowed and any statements made contrary to patch sellers will be removed. This is for informational purposed ONLY. Please reply with your situation. I want to make two lists 1: Ordered from WTF and did not receive them. 1: Kedex 2 Rex -------PATCHES RECEIVED 3 Chargrilled 4 JenMcnitt 5 Gloturco 6 Evilshadow---Patches Recieved 7 RoyDH 8 TX-15293 9 Ronan 10 ScaryGuy 11 Fenris C 12 SpudTrooper 13 Firebatt--RECIEVED 8 NOV 14 Tomtrooper--Awaiting Fullfilment 2: Wants to order patches to create one of the Imperial Army uniforms. 1 arielly 2 PM07 3 RoyDH 4 Toda

going back to the M64 M65 question, having owned several US M65s, they are nothing at all like the Belgian M64. To me that almost looks like a German WWI field coat without the back frocking, trim piping and ornate buttons. I still think it would be easier for us to determine an acceptable shape, and create a pattern.

currently that is a problem for a lot of people. I knew this was going to be a hot issue so I rounded up cash and ordered immediately when they went on sale, but I know several others that have purchased and been left in a lurch. I do not know if these are still on the WTF patch sale page or not, but I know people are still trying to get their patches after ordering months ago. Sebastian originally had 200 patches made which is 100 suits. An odd number were left over meaning people bought one patch likely to collect. We do need a supply of these patches to move a lot of people forward. Maybe I got lucky and got mine soon after I ordered because I purchased a group of them for the Garrison.

have you reached out to your GML in the last couple of days? He may be waiting on US to approve the CRL first. Ive seen that happen before. Also I am working with a maker in Star Garrrison to make green holsters for us. Im going to snag one of yur pics and send to him so he can see what we are doing. he will likely make the holster in the olive green we are calling for. Ive already painted my harness and belt to match with the Montana Gold olive Gren so I will likely do the same with all my gear so it all matches. Even if that paint wears on the corners...well...that's actually BETTER because of typical field wear!

Were going to.need to pic one design and stick with it concerning the CRL and the accompanying CRL photo. I found an Etsy seller making goggles for this, now with these photos I can compare to the Etsy listing.

If anybody needs anything or you have a question dont hesitate to reach out to me. I may not have the answer but I can generally find out and get back to you with it. I've built costumes in both Legions for over ten years and ran the Infantry Det for the Rebels, so dont hesitate if you have a question.

Rex the problem that we are currently having with the patches is that Sebastian had 200 patches created which sold out within just a few days. One of my local guys went back and purchased the last three that showed in stock sometime in February or early March. He's kind of been getting the runaround from WTF about the patches and or a refund which he has requested. Another of my local guys created his own patches but he has not answered me how he created them. He may have embroidered them himself on a home embroidery machine or he may have done it in vinyl like some of the tie pilot patches are done.

I can make pretty much everything we see on this trooper but the goggles have me. What is the original goggle and how was the seal formed?

Just took a look at the Transcon suit, from CDC. I remember those from when I lived by Avenal State Prison, most of the guards there wore the jumpsuit. would you say the sizes are true to size or do I need to order up? Also did you trim some off the leg and use that for the mandarin collar and snap?

i have just snt another Email out with the conversion template. Its really not that hard if you want to tackle this yourself

shane Ive been following along and I got a PM from your GML today asking if I had seen yours. OF COURSE I have! Me and Tom go a ways back in the JRS so its all cool that he reached out to me. You may want to slide that right side triglide down a bit. Which suit did you go with? Id like to pick one of those up.

personally I really like the color of the suit you have. its brighter than man I have seen.

I think that really is our go-to color

pics on screen always look odd. I would suggest taking everything outside and photographing the belt, webbing and pooches together in one picture to see the contrast. I painted all of my web gear with Dick Blick Montana Gold Olive Green paint that is recommended in the Supply list topic. I made mine from nylon webbing from Strapworks.com and three different parts of a pistol belt assembled to make one functional pistol belt. It looks like the art after I painted it all. The Dick Blick Montana Gold is an acrlylic so it does not react with the nylon.

Ok everybody, I have cought back up with this topic, and re-re read the entire thing. My thoughts so far: 1: Boots The boots other than the one pair of jacks is clearly a green boot, and in my view the rigger/ commuter boot fits this shape. This is art and it may or may not be based on a real item. Either way, its our job to get close. I own a LOT of boots, but nothing like this. 2: Holster The holster appears green in art. I have asked Carl Luhman in Star Garrison if he can make green holsters. I just had him make me a custom E11 holster ( I have a hasbro mod) and for the first time in ten years I can holster my own E11. he informs me he can make green leather holsters. 3: CRL text I see the term Olive and Olive Drab used on the glove description. All the other parts use "OLIVE" as the term.

You were saying?

if it was custom sewn, that actually makes it easier. We can make it to the size we need, not an off the shelf maybe it will fit item. Ive been out of the loop for a few days, looks like we are finally about to get floors after all this time!

Hmmmm close.... I have to wonder about getting a pair of cheap boots and cutting them down to size then adding the top strip arounf the boot. I really need zippers and the commuter style boot would be perfect if I can find it in my size

Im going to use my hat just like we did in the army. A lot of guys flipped their BDU hat around, and had the suspension opened up so the hat would fit. It made a much better cushion especially if you had the sewn on ranks.

Thank you and yes I will do my best. I am working from Matt Nelsons plans that he posted elsewhere. Its my hope that Crookknight takes on these packs, but there MUST be demand for him to do them. Once I get underway with my pack, Ill post a separate WIP.

Im posting this here so I can transpose it to the front page. Please check the first page for all revisions in case I cant remove this post later! First post will always have the most up to date information. *************MEGASNIPPAGE******************
