The outermost boxes on each side are also a different shape to the Scout's overbelt.

⬆️ What he said 🙂 One other small addition, you mentioned you were printing a detonator from Scout files? Please be aware that the regular biker scout detonator is slightly different from Del's, so might need some alterations to be clearable. Great to see you diving into it though, keep up the great work.

It would be great to have you join us Chris, and Del Meeko is a great choice, even if I'm a little biased myself 😉 I wouldn't know of any specific STL files for those parts, but if you find any and would like a second opinion on their accuracy, don't hesitate to throw them up here. Wishing you the best of luck with your build!

Great to see another Inferno in progress, especially one just over the other side of the Irish Sea 😉 Don't hesitate to give a shout if you have any questions!

As a print that looks perfectly good to me for all clearance levels.

Sorry yes, I did check that through and thought I replied already, but clearly not! All looks great on the models you shared. When painted up correctly, that should be perfect.

Thanks a million mate. Good to get this one step closer to the finishing line.

So sorry guys, been an extremely busy month and had a few health issues into the bargain. So we've agree on wording for the text for all items at this point 🙂 . It's just a second pair of eyes to go over the wording for everything from the jetpack down to make sure it's fit to submit for a new CRL. I'll give another shout out to the other DCAs too to see if anyone is free to help out.

No worries. If you look back on the first page, any items that are in green have been fully approved. Any items in yellow are ones that have been agreed by us here, but have not yet been approved by additional DCAs. We'll try and get those approved ASAP.

Yes, the shin / knee plates look okay to me. My instinct is that we should leave the wording flexible so that builders have a choice between them being permanently fixed together, or two pieces that are hinged together to allow a small amount of flexibility. Some of the other pieces have not yet been reviewed by other staff, but I will speak with the other DCAs and ask one or two of them to review our work so far.

You know what Kevin, I think you're 100% correct. Looking at the side angle, I think the white line is indeed at the same elevation as the shin / knee armour around it. As you say, it would also make sense that it mirrors what appears on the wrist armour. I'll go ahead and rewrite that when I get a chance, but by all means go ahead and work away with those changes. Good work!

As mentioned previously, the compad is the most awkward part of this, as the posing of both the sculpts and artwork ensures that the gloves ride up above the compad, obscuring them from view. Give that: 1) The flightsuit is otherwise identical to the standard Inferno one. 2) The named Inferno characters in this source material have the compad visible while wearing the same flightsuit. I think it is entirely reasonable to assume that the same compad is present for the generic troopers. The best concession would seem to be to leave the details of the compad wide open, including being able to clear a regular TIE pilot compad. There is no point having Level 2 criteria for something we can't see. Taking the Del Meeko Battlefront 2 CRL as the basis again: Compad Rectangular communications pad with patterned painted details matching reference photo. Compad is worn with the four large, rectangular buttons pointing towards the wearer’s elbow. Compad is rectangular in shape and fits within the flight suit's compad pocket window. Details of the compad differ from the standard TIE Pilot compad. Black buttons are smaller than the red and white buttons; the white button located adjacent to the button with multiple dimples may be a single piece, instead of split in two segments. Compad base color is silver, metallic grey, or weathered silver. Compad size is 2.5" x 2" (63.5mm x 50mm). Compad is fully visible above the glove, facing outward on the arm. An Inferno style compad as per Battlefront 2 CRLs is accepted for clearance. For basic approval (Level 1) A standard TIE pilot style compad painted and worn to match game references may also be accepted for use. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Compad shall be Inferno Squad style with correct button sizes, layout and colors. Two black buttons at the top of the pad are smaller than the white and red buttons. The white button adjacent to the button with holes/dimples is not split. Compad is moderately weathered / stained.

Detailing all looks good to me 👍

Hi Jim, you are in fact correct, there shouldn't be screws visible on the Inferno Squad helmet. I can see where you mean when I zoom in to the CRL photos, and they technically shouldn't be there.

Yes, you're right that it isn't supposed to sit flush there. Whether or not there's too much of a gap there is a difficult one to call. The best bet is probably to have a chat with your local GML. They will have the final say on your clearance, so if they are happy with that then it will save you having to do a lot of work.
