I am in the process of 3d printing the helmet again, with many improvements. I'll show it to you guys once I have it finished (hopefully before summer). However... I wasn't comfortable with the cartoonish style of the armor, and googling around, I found out that the Super Commandos were playable in the now defunct Force Arena game. And their look is just amazing. I was able to get the extracted 3D model and textures from the game, and render them. With this references would it be a 501st approvable armor? Thanks!!! And I hope that my next post is in less than a year XD Are these models available to download somewhere? I am interested in working on them. Link to comment
MrShadow[TX] Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 Almost done with the files. I'm really embarrased this has taken son long, the lockdown really hit me hard, but I'm expecting to have them ready before the year is over. 3 1 Link to comment

When you think ur ready we can start draft work on the CRL itself to coincide with the character you are working on. 1 1 Link to comment
IcyTrooper[CMD-DL] Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 @MrShadow I spoke with @RAIDER and will assist and take point on the CRL text working with the references. When you get a chance to get the build moving make sure to create a separate WIP thread so that this reference thread remains separate from that. I will create a separate pictures only thread for the references on this one as well as a CRL draft thread, when I get a chance. Great job so far on the model!! 1 1 Link to comment
DarthKHAOZ Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 hello guys. I would like to join the legion and am interested in the Imperial Super commando costume. I don't however have any skill in making costumes. Would anybody be willing to sell me the pieces or even a fully made costume once the CRL is finished and approved? 1 Link to comment

At this point, the only vendor I am aware of that possibly makes this kit is SkyGunBro (on Facebook), BUT I cannot speak to the quality of the kit compared to the actual references as a build has not been presented here yet for us to review. @MrShadow is developing his own 3D models/files.

DarthKHAOZ Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I'm also wondering if any progress has been made on a crl for this costume? Link to comment

Until someone presents a completed/semi-completed build we don't typically start drafting the CRL as the builders are typically the ones to present their research of the references alongside their builds. There are exceptions to that but that's normally with costumes where we have seen people making significant and steady progress on their builds in the forums. That hasn't happened here for the Imp Supercommando to this point. That said... @MrShadow did message us just yesterday and believes he has enough progress on his files to start drafting a text and @IcyTrooper has volunteered to help work alongside him to start that process. 3 Link to comment

IcyTrooper[CMD-DL] Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I'll speak with the team on this but from the looks of it I do believe this costume could have two versions within one CRL. The Gar Saxon version (red) and the Grunt version (white). I have set up a pinned reference photo thread and a pinned CRL discussion thread. Link to comment

Because in the Force Arena version there's only Gar and Grunts. Also, I wanted to ask, should I post detailed renders of my model in this thread, or begin a new one? 1 Link to comment

This would be strictly based on the Rebels version, that's what you model is, correct? When you begin the work on the build with the prints and what not your own WIP would be good. Link to comment

Not really, I'm making my model based on the references for the Force Arena version, because it's more "realistic" or at least less cartoonish Link to comment

IcyTrooper[CMD-DL] Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 @MrShadow thanks for that! Do you by chance have a shot of the helmet from in the game? I kicked off the CRL discussion thread and have started with the flight suit while we try and source the helmet images. Link to comment

przykrasprawa Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hello! Greetings from Polish Garrison. First of all- amazing work. I’m thinking about Gar Saxon’s armor since I saw it in Star Wars Rebels but in realistic version. Fingers crossed for your CRL. Are you willing to sell/share your ready files? Link to comment
RAIDER[COTG] Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 @MrShadow can u get some high res zoom ups of the helmet on the extracted game model? i remember initially we gave some input on helmet but that was from the animated references 1 1 Link to comment

But be warned, this was made for a mobile game, so the model loses a lot of its charm up close. 2 Link to comment
