[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Well I have the money so I'm re-making my Shadow Scout, can get my TX designation back. ;>

[Griffin-X[501st]]

Welcome back Shawn...! Unfortunately, it looks like your TX costume is no longer active and has lapsed. BUT...we'll help you get the new TX scout up and running!

[Darth Agnon[501st]]

Glad to have you back! Can't wait to see your new build.

[ELP[501st]]

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Good to be back... Now the waiting begins, got my kit ordered, just need to track down a Hold out blaster, a DLT-19, Flight suit and gloves.

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Well got a was working on a 181 and my Shadow Scout at the same time... Scout kit and the TIE bucket are both MC so while it was a long wait it was more then worth it. TIE bucket arived first sooo I went ahead and finished that and put my 181 in. Scout is now in progress. Waiting on a flight suit and gloves, but everything else is good, finnaly have my DLT-19 as well. I need elastic and webbing so I an get everything assembled but I should be able to put my scout in soon.

Can the front of the snout be a light grey on the Shadow Scout, or should I go in an paint it black?

[Master Tej]

I . . . think it's a light gray. But I'm not certain at that one.

I'm working on my scout now and did my snout in flat black. But, grey is fine too.

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

I don't want to paint it if I don't have too, I'll just frustrate our GML. ;>

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Well waiting on my flight suit but my kit is built, hopefully my 181 will go fast so I can get my Shadow Scout in and get my Spec Ops back.

[Darth Emphatic[CMD-DWM]]

Where are you getting the suit from?

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Bought one from a friend, though had to wait from them to be in stock... which was supposed to wednesday, and she shipped it soooo it should be be here soon... I hope. Everything else is more or less done,

[izzi[TX]]

Sure it's not just stealthily hiding outside your door already?

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

I wish.. ;>

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Shadow Scout trial run, need to adjust the arm bits so they stay in place... And I need to pad the nose... Visor slips down too much. Other then that I think it turned out well.

Not too bad Shawn. You might consider getting the suit altered a bit though. It seems too be very baggy.

[SL/TX-9162[501st]]

Are there anymore ref pics on Shadow Scouts or are the posted images all there is, I've searched but most of the stuff seems to be fan made... Is there anything more offical that has a better view?

[Griffin-X[501st]]

Not at this point. We shoot for "movie accurate" sort of like the Biker Scouts as seen in ROTJ. It makes sense that scouts of different detachments would be similar in design, armor, some weapons, etc. I just completed my Specialist mods and received approval. You can check it out below.

More Shadow Scout specific refs would be nice... Guess I'll see what happens with the refs I have. For now I just want to get my basic scout approved.

[Master Tej]

Looking good! Best of luck on the approval, brother.

Just follow the Shadow Scout CRL and you'll be fine.
