I have a question. I havent seen any animated characters here and I would assume that the Star Wars Rebels "Jumptrooper" would be a Spec Ops character. Has anyone talked about this and I just cant find it? I know we have one from the game, but was wanting to maybe give this character some love. Anyone have some insight?

Ok yall. Got the riding patch and mud flap on the flightsuit. Found a really good thread over on the Pathfinders forum and it helped me alot with getting this done. So for this process, I had seam ripped the outside of the leg as that was the "simple seam" and I will also be tapering it. The inside seam was a double stitched with an overlock so didnt wanna cut that loose. The other big difference is that the four patches are sewn together, then sewn to the suit. There are two support stitches in the crouch to keep the patch from falling away from the suit. Hope you all approve. I feel like it may be a little short, but looking at it here, I feel like it matches reference pics. Again any input is appreciated. I will be sewing up the outside of the legs and tapering the arms today for the fitted look.

Good luck on your builds! I am using the Crayon Black from Rustolium and I just LOVE the way it looks. Might be something to look into.

A little update for yall

Thats really funny lol! I was thinking though, what would be cool is taking some unpainted parts to cons and such and showing the process. Or doing each step. So the roll of filament, then the finished print, then bondo and primer, then finished. That cartoon boba tickles me though lol

Just waiting on Helmet, and printing the chest. Remember I am working on both a swamp trooper and a Shadow scout, so have 2 sets of these. Will post pics of both when I start painting.
-
Small update. I have ordered 3 helmets from Studio Creations. I just wasnt happy AT ALL with the 3d printed ones out there and Studio Creations is tops. Got most the 3d printed stuff done just waiting on chest pieces. Will post pics when i get home.
-
well ok then! Started ordering parts for the boots and such.
-
Hmmmm, should I start a shadow scout? I mean I am already working on 2 scouts, should I hit a third? just get white green and black all done at once?
-
Yeah, I get that part of selling. And in a way, its nice to have these investments and be able to tap into it when needed. But there are some that hold certain costumes near and dear. I was one of them and messed up. But live and learn lol. I have some in mind that I might end up building and trooping, then selling just because I want to build it and would love to have my work out there. As far as the riding patches, I just hope to get them to look right. 2 costumes depend on it lol
-
I'm gonna say this, I am so lucky that I now have a GF that told me, no matter what is going on, I am not going to sell a costume. I hate that I had so much and sold it all for someone else, or because of someone. And I know that I shouldnt put that on them, but its why i did it. If you dont HAVE to sell, then I would say dont. I get alot of people have said they just enjoy the build. So they build, then sell. Thats cool. But if you are like me and get attached to certain costumes, and you are attached to the one you are talking about, then dont sell. You will regret it. I sold my TK and Vader, and kinda hate myself for it lol. Its most likely gonna be stuff you wont get the chance to get back once its gone.
-
Nevermind lol. I found it! had to click on the bar in the graph for it to open into the costume breakdown.

Boots done. Just got the suede in and will be trying to work on the jump suit this week. super stressed about the riding patches but its just one of those things i just need to start and it will come together. Armor still printing, and will be posting pics of that soon. @IcyTrooper I went to the DB and couldnt figure out for the live of me where it was showing that. Mind giving me a walk through or telling me what exactly its under please?

Also working on a Scout at the same time.

Well, I am coming back to the Swamp! I retired from the 501st a while back and sold off all my costumes. I was the #10 Swampy in all the Legion and stupidly sold my costume. The guy I sold it to loves it too much to sell it back, so here I am to work on another one! Gree is ready to get swampy again. Does anyone know how many Swamp Troopers we know have? I used to be able to find how many were in each costume but forgot how to get there. If anyone knows or could just tell me how many that would be great! Anyways, Going a little different route this time. I am 3d printing my armor and making my own soft goods. Boots are currently the WIP. Gloves are from Wampa Wear.

lol, no problem. That's why we are here. Welcome by the way. Im #10
