E-11b Finished my build the other day, the smell has finally gone, and I would say it turned out great. Still need to paint the ejection port silver, totally blanked on that. Belt Boxes Finished these as well, I think they also turned out great!

upon closer inspection I think you're right, while it does have the flashlight of newer E-11's it doesn't seem to have the other details, maybe even T-tracks instead of U-tracks. Maybe someone who has a physical set can get close ups. I'd be more than willing to build this costume physically, either when the CRL database is able to be added to/modified again or as soon as there is LMO approval (apologies if we already got this, I skimmed this quickly and it is 4am where I live)

Hey just following up on this. I've fallen into the rabbit hole of special forces.. first working on my del, then finding the "generic" inferno, now these guys. I did have two questions and one statement: Questions: Is the flightsuit essentially just a standard black flightsuit then? I can't say I'm an expert between the differences aside from the red stripe and potentially the zipper cover? Assuming it is, would it be possible to allow for those with silver cogs to also be approved? My thought process is that IOC allows 4 versions - white embroidered cogs, white vinyl cogs, silver embroidered cogs, and silver vinyl cogs. In my opinion the BEST choice would be white embroidered cogs as they have the same "3D" effect as the sculpt of the fig, but for accessibility, maybe this could be an option? Statement: I'm willing to take on actually *making* this kit. I've got the base Iden and can easily order a new flightsuit with white embroidered cogs and a new helmet with no red highlights and a set of white Inferno markings (otherwise this seems like just another tie pilot, I personally believe this is the best way to go) I also happen to have a Hask bandolier and I know someone who I believe would be able to make the black pauldron shown in the artwork.

If not pointed out already, the e-11's should be the newer Rogue One and onwards style. Looking forward to this becoming real, I basically have it put together, just need to make a slight modification to my belt and I'm good to go for if/when this is ready to be published.

That's very reassuring! I'm hoping my GML's agree with you!

Whelp here I am 2 hours later and I've officially submitted! Here's my photos for y'all to look at as well.

My replacement leather arrived today! Finishing up assembling what I needed and I should be ready for submission photos in about 2 hours or so

Good evening Spec Ops, after last weeks episodes of Andor, I finally convinced myself to get a security trooper. The plan is to start with the base costume while we wait for the CRL site to be fixed, once that's done I plan to make the Ghorman version with chest, bicep and shoulder armor. I'm also considering making either the riot helmet, or the regular helmet.. we'll see what happens. I plan to make the E-11b and potentially the zap rod if I make the riot helmet. Sources: Hat/Tunic/Pants NOT ORDERED - Jim Tripon. He's done great by me in the past, and I trust his process. Plus seeing what he made for Pyro, it seems like a good option. Price is a big factor too. Belt Boxes HAVE - From BaileyBuilds, I actually already have a set of these for my ISB, but to my knowledge I can't use them anymore if they're painted, so I got a second set. Belt HAVE - Purchased from Wampa Wear about 2 years ago, still stands up very well Belt disc ORDERED - Also from Bailey, I plan to swap it out on my buckle. Boots HAVE - KeepTrooping, I absolutely love all of my keeptrooping items, good price, good quality, relatively fast shipping. Gloves HAVE - Keeptrooping, same as said about the boots, these are actually lined with something really soft, love them! Armor Files PROBABLY HAVE - Found these on Etsy, maybe someone with more experience can lend their thoughts? They look good to me but I know there are differences between Mudtrooper armor and security armor, I just don't know what. https://www.etsy.com/listing/758324433/mud-trooper-complete-armor-3d-model?click_key=798b13fdcbfda460aa129a5b2ecec5e47344d6f5%3A758324433&click_sum=21e9dcf8&ls=r&ref=hp_rv-3&pro=1&content_source=798b13fdcbfda460aa129a5b2ecec5e47344d6f5%3A758324433 Riot Helmet Files DON'T HAVE - Considering these that Pyro posted, looks good to me for a quick glance. Riot Trooper Helmet (andor) STL File (download) - Etsy E-11b files HAVE - Already had these from GA, not sure if it's 100% accurate or not, but I've printed one before (sold) and it was a very painless process. E-11 Blaster - 3D Print Files – Galactic Armory Zap Rod files DON'T HAVE - Also post by Pyro, again looks good to me but I don't have enough experience to say for sure if they're good or not. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/zap-rod-from-andor-series

This came out very fast! Might start working on this for when we can start doing CRL's (and updates) again.

One more thing, I'm curious about how I'm supposed to mount the pouches to the belt. Here's what I've got. It looks like there shouldn't be a visible strap *above* the pouch. I'm pretty sure I understand how to do it (sew the flap to the pouch, then use velcro after looping it over the belt to hold it in place) but I would like some imput from a cleared Del if possible. (excuse the excessive amount of dog fur, it was accidently living on the floor for a few days) ALSO ALSO this is the BACK side, it's just a flat flap not the angled outward facing one.

Small update, I didn't realize that I needed just a bit more work for the vest and some of the hard parts. Submission on hold.. probably until finals are over. We'll see

Hey guys! Been awhile huh. Anyway I've received all the parts and am finished up painting and assembling everything. I hope to be able to submit tomorrow, if not Monday.

Thank you! I'm debating between magnets or velcro or some other solution. I think I need to suit up and then go from there.

SUBMISSION PROGRESS: SUBMITTED Hello spec ops! After a few years of searching to get everything together, I have an almost complete Del kit. Future posts will follow up on exactly what I have and what I need. I also have an approved Iden and previously had a Hask before trading the bandolier and have since ordered a replacement. Anyway, here's what I've got so far. Helmet: Intergalactic Supply (HAVE) Balaclava: Amazon (HAVE) Flightsuit: Wampa Wear (HAVE) Compad: Wampa Wear/Philo props. (Trying to get the philo one to fit, but it's a little small.) (HAVE) Gloves: Wampa Wear (HAVE) Armor: Jinta Props (HAVE) Vest: Jim Tripon (HAVE) Mp-40 Pouches: Ebay UK (HAVE) Officer belt: Wampa Wear (HAVE) Scout belt: Intergalactic Supply (HAVE) Scout Pouches: Mon Cal (HAVE) Thermal Detonator: Intergalactic Supply (HAVE) Holster: Darman's Props (HAVE) Boots: Keep Trooping (HAVE) I plan to make individual posts further on for each item. Currently I'm struggling on how to mount the Mp-40 pouches and scout pouches. The back flap of the scout pouches isn't sewn into the rest of the pouch so I might look into that for securing it to the belt. We also have a Del in our garrison I think I can reach out to for help. If anyone here has pics of how those are mounted on their kits that would be extremely helpful.

I dont know about the belt, but when I first did my Hask build, I used those specific files (and later used them for my iden) and got approved. I bought rubber shoulder straps from Mon Cal on etsy.
