Hi again troopers!! I was recently approved for my Imperial Army Trooper costume and shortly after the rank of Specialist. I love the IAT costume because it is very military, of a real soldier, but it is a costume that does not have many people and therefore there is not much information. In my case, in order to build it, the information that I was able to find in the different threads of this Detachment was essential and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have created a WIP or have provided some type of information and that has served us as a great help to those of us who have tried to build it later. So it is time to give the Detachment what the Detachment has given me and I have decided to write a WIP with the history of my IAT costume in case it will help new recruits. Little by little I will write the WIP in the order that the CRL follows, because I have to translate it from the one I wrote in my Garrison's forum. So I apologize in advance for any mistakes in the English translation. Many thanks to all of you who have helped and encouraged me to achieve it.

In case it can help you, on my IAT costume the piece of hook/snap is here:

Good job Eric!! It looks great!!???? In my opinion the only thing I would correct is the chevron, which seems to be a bit open. To solve it, I put a snap with the mandarin collar and a little velcro on the tip to prevent it from opening. Cheer up!! you're doing great!!

Hi again @Hoda If you allow my opinion, I agree with @IcyTrooper : the gloves don't look bad, but maybe @Blackwatch thoughts are the most accurate.

Thank you so much @Hodafor your congratulations!!! Shortly I will write a thread with the experience of creating my IAT costume and there may be something that can help you. If I can help you with something, here I am.

They look great !! You're doing well Eric!! Cheer up!!!???????

Specialist rank achieved!! Thank you very much to all those who with your help I have achieved it????? See you in the trenches!!

Application submitted!!

No problem, I will do it. You can always count on me ?

Many thanks!! I have created a WIP on my Garrison’s forum, but now I would like to translate it and post it here in order to help future recruits with their IAT costume.

Hi again troopers!! After months of hard work in my costume, I’m proud to announce that my Imperial Army Trooper costume has been approved and this is the result: I would like to thank everyone who has participated in this thread and has helped me in this beautiful project. Thank you very much. See you in the trenches!!

Finally, this is the result of the Denver Hayes boots after being painted with Montana Gold Olive Green spray: Thougths? @Blackwatch? Thanks in advance!!

I already have the Denver Hayes boots and they look great!!! I honestly think a commuter style boots is better than Jackboots. Thougths? Next step: paint them with Montana Gold Olive Green Spray.

You're welcome. It's a pleasure Blackwatch. We are here to help each other and to enjoy the passion that unites us.

Hi again Blackwatch!! I just updated the last post with two new entries (9 and 10). Following your advice, I have not posted these Totes winter boots because they have many decorative stichings and are possibly only valid for L1. Thougths?

Hi again troopers! I continue looking for commuter style boots and I found these “Blondo Mickey waterproof boots”. I think they are very expensive than others, but in my opinion the most important thing is to have many options of boots. Thougths? https://blondo.com/products/mickey?variant=47971019988

Ok perfect!! No problem!! I will keep looking for more boots and if I find other commuter boots I will post it again. Regards
