i will as soon as i can. I REALLY want to get this done ASAP. Saturday I tripped over a mouse droid that parked in front of me and fell into a wall stretching my forefinger backwards. it hurts like hell at times. I picked the stuff clean and I can make a new flap out of the pocket I pulled off the front, and make a new pocket from an old pair of coveralls I have. I just dont feel up to pulling the leg seam apart and putting the pocket on tonight. I just finished airbrushing my Bandai ATAT in the fading light, and my finger said its done for the night. Maybe friday night, I have a model meeting tomorrow night. -

Its the automotive workwear brand CT10 coveralls. I can send you the collar conversion pattern if youll pm me your email. Youll need a second suit to cut up, i generally use a big chunk of one arm or legto make the collar. Mines 28" end to end when you lay it out to sew it. -
Imperial Army Trooper Parts List & Resource
Blackwatch replied to Tarrif's topic in Imperial Army Trooper
If it has not been already, the new CRL refects some changes and may affect the listed parts. -
i converted coveralls, which I have been doing for almost a decade. I started with Autoworkwear/ Dickies coveralls and used parts of another set to make my collar and pockets, based on the USMC base coverall layout. The butt pockets could be used for the upper thigh pockets seen on the USMC coverall, or, if the leg pockets are added, for that. I have used those on my RMMC Work uniform and they are easy enough to add. Making a set of leg pockets and the flap that goes over them would be no sweat and not even take a full afternoon to do. When I made mine I used the original collar cut in half folded and stitched for the flap that covers the chest pocket. My collar is made per my Legion Dets accepted flight suit tutorial, only adding the snap that none of the other black jumpstuits use. if anyone needs my collar mod template Ill be happy to Email it to you.

just a heads up, i bought Lancer tactical airsoft goggles, and they are so massive the do not fit inside the helmet. the look fine outside, but Im VERY light senstive and plan to wear goggles as my sunglasses. Just be aware that the Lancers will not fit inside the helmet if you plan to wear them. Otherwise they are VERY inexpensive if they are going to stay on the helmet.

if you want to go whole hog and get a second coverall to use as the materail (so it matches) for the collar, pockets and flap on the chest pocket Ill be happy to send you my collar template. Its been a resource for the JRS for many years and Ive sent my tutorial parts to JRS cadets around the world. -

Good intel, thank you!! -
i have used the Automotive Workwear model CT10 for the last eight years to make over two dozen pilot suits. you can take part of the leg off to make the tab collar and move the pockets up from the butt to the front. Check the shape on the Green Army type which uses the USMC coverall. Shoot me your Email and Ill send you the collar pattern. Always use those coupon codes they provide. https://www.automotiveworkwear.com/ https://www.automotiveworkwear.com/RedKap/CT10/coveralls.html
