Thank you! My friend was interested in building an IST with me so I think I'll have him get Jim's armor.

Would you happen to have pictures from when you were working on it? I was debating between Jim and Imperial Surplus and ended up going with the latter since I don't know much about working with the materials Jim uses.

Here's a 360 view.

Sure thing! I'll take more pics in the morning. I figure even if it is inaccurate, I would still like to have it just for fun. It's a fun bit.

RIOT HELMET (Incomplete) Just wanted to post this WIP of the riot helmet. It's coming out really nice! Only a few more parts to print.

BELT SETUP Simply my Wampa Wear belt, with the correct sized/colored belt boxes added, along with the correct code disc mounted. Nothing much more to say than that.

PIVIOTING! I still plan to make v2 first as I won't have the armor before I have the uniform, but I also plan to make both the riot helmet and standard helmet. I think I'll go with Riot first since I don't yet have a source for the standard helmet but can start printing the riot one shortly.

I've found these files, at a quick glance they look good to me, any thoughts? Riot Trooper Helmet (andor) STL File (download) - Etsy

DLT-19x Also optional but as Del's primary weapon, I had to have it! I used a DLT-19 base from Galactic Armory and just didn't print the bipod. I then found a scope off thingiverse and glued it on top.. crooked. I will be tearing it off and regluing shortly. I painted the scope separately from the blaster so I can get the nice red line all around without worrying about too much overspray.

E-11 While blasters are optional, I feel weird standing around without one. I made this ROTJ E-11 awhile ago. It's based off some.. not so great.. files on thingiverse, but it was free! U-tracks are pretty delicate though!

BOOTS Arguably one of the more difficult parts, I ended up with keeptrooping "tall jackboots". Initally I had some taller than average normal jackboots approved for Iden and Hask, but have since realized these are more accurate. Also a comparison to normal sized jackboots.

THERMAL DETONATOR I believe this is also a shadow scout detonator. I kinda glued the larger greeblie a little crooked, so I plan to fix that shortly. The back side has an insert plate glued in and 2 metal hooks to hook onto the belt. Endcaps gave me a hard time while gluing, I plan to add more reinforcement shortly. HOLSTER Darman's Props on etsy. Fantastic holster! I go to him whenever I need one. Uses velcro to attach to the officer belt.

SCOUT STYLE POUCHES These were pretty simple. Got them from Mon Cal on etsy. I believe they are just shadow scout pouches. I used some velcro on the back to hold the back flap to the pouch, and they dangle from my vest strap, making it look like they're on the belt strap.

OVERBELT I also struggled with this. I initially didn't know where the snaps were, what the difference was between this and a shadow scout belt and it was super confusing. Eventually I learned the last boxes on each side have a slope to them, and hopefully that'll be reflected in the next CRL photos when we can update them again. Anyhow I got this from Intergalactic supply as well, and it also has loops inside for the belt. Hip box is nothing special, just a shadow hip box with some leather running through it. Buckles are not functional.

OFFICER UNDERBELT Pretty simple, it's just a plain officer's belt, ideally with the ROTJ ridges. I went with WampaWear.
