@Blackwatch I am having some difficulty sourcing fabric for this build as it's not a common fabric. I am looking at various sources of Drill/Twill and the CRL shows a dark olive color. Which I am curious is the suit supposed to be dark olive or Olive Drab (OD Green)? Once I get the fabric I can also get the hat going from an online source for the pattern.

I am starting an Imperial Army Trooper so I have a costume that is lighter weight and allows me to assist my armored troopers during events. I will be starting off with the Version 2 and eventually move to Version 1. I do have some sewing skills so I will borrow a machine from a friend to put it together. Hat: Currently sourcing Jumpsuit: I have the pattern and tools to make it, but sourcing the fabric. Harness: Pending arrival of materials. Belt: Obtained at surplus store. Pouches: Obtained at surplus store. Boots: Currently sourcing. The pouches may be custom made so I can fit my medical gear inside them as I function as a medic during our troops. If I can dissect an old IFAK, I might make one in the IAT color scheme.

Looks good so far! Out of curiosity what material is your flight suit made from? I am looking to also go the custom route but not sure what fabric to use.
