They appear to be a similar base shape to the later seasons of TCW clone forearms (once the elbows detached and back taper was not so sharp): You refine the shape and add the additional ridges, different buttons and tapered thinner shape toward the wrist that clones don't. Could certainly start with the model for a clone and build out from there.

Thanks as well to the other LMOs and my wife LadyB who helped proof read the CRL. Glad to see it complete. :)

I concur. Shiny is perfectly fine but based on what we see, mild weathering would be viable as well.

Exactly. If they see fit to make upgrades, more power to them, but in lieu of that they are grandfathered in. -
New CRL Proposal - Sith Trooper (TROS)
ionicdesign replied to RAIDER's topic in First Order Sith Trooper
Was it missed, is it ready? -
Sorry it is a tricky one, I have most on steam but I don't know if Galaxies is even on there. My question was if there was a guide on sizing (fine if not) and mostly placement as it appears it could be overlapping some of the trap to be positioned right and not too far to the center of the brow (as seen in the image above) As to the other the white is that I wanted to check on. The mesh is definitely silverish, for sure. Though I know the interiors are white for ANH Stunt and some others, on the Aerators/Hovi-MIX tip is something I just couldn't see based on the size and detail of the model and texture maps. The resolution and LOD is just too low. Thank you for your attention and assistance.

If able to get some more game reference could you grab some of the helmet that would also be great on this point. or share reference you have that would be awesome. References are few and far between, I've just not seen reference where you can see more than black and silver. Many thanks.

New CRL Proposal - Sith Trooper (TROS)
ionicdesign replied to RAIDER's topic in First Order Sith Trooper
Fair enough, do tell when ready, thanks. -
That would be good to check on the game. I'm not suggesting that on the low poly model it is overlapping the trap, just that if standard sized it would. This was long enough ago I'm guessing there was no geometry for the trap, or even a normal map, maybe just a bump. The thicker red is just rather wide, and the darker trap area is kind of small. Just want to get it correctly wide (the thicker part of the red stripe), and in looking close thought overlapping a standard trap a little would be the way to do it. If you can get a hold of the game and get more details that would be great, thank you.

Thanks for starting this thread Ryan. In process of helping on a build for one of these I had a question on the details in front above the trim and David suggested posting here. In looking at it I would say that the Traps in front (if standard sized) are half covered with the red paint (as seen here marked in green). I also wondered if anyone had a recommended width for the taller red part of the stripe there as well, to match reference well but not encrouch too much on the middle of the helmet. Thank you.

Detachment Staff submitted it. It is being reviewed. It is quite a bit longer than most CRLs. Hopefully soon. -

Ideally, best to keep the basics to proportions and borad strokes and minutia in Lvl 2 and 3. -

Hard to mandate based on the typical method. It would be a fine idea to include more views in the CRLs with the Gallery for clarity and whatnot though for sure. -

I'm not sure I follow and want to be sure I understand. What is it that cannot be done within Legion Guidelines? -

Thanks for the heads up David, we will review it with care and get back with you.. -
This is what I planned to do, I have lots of experience painting and costuming (as an MFA and LMO). I've done the painters tape segments on custom pilots helmets and several other things. I just thought that there might be a better way for such a dramatic curve to keep it nice and smooth, rather than segmenting the pieces. For models and whatnot I know there is flexible masking tape, but it tends to be smaller and not as wide as I'd like to use here.

Proposed Imperial Death Trooper CRL Update
ionicdesign replied to Chaos's topic in Imperial Death Trooper
Very much so, if you cannot see it, it either is of lesser importance or doesn't matter at all. David is spot on about updates to CRLs. -
PROPOSED CRL MODIFICATION: Crimson Stormtrooper / Magma Trooper
ionicdesign replied to RAIDER's topic in Crimson Stormtrooper
Consistent is good. I wouldn't get to myopic about an exact red, but the ones within an individuals set should match up. -

Ah thanks for clarifying. Tabs with the two types and things different noted as tabs, got it.
