Imperial Army Trooper


Recommended Posts

Hello I am Javier. I live in Spain and I am in the Spanish Garrison. I'm getting the IAT suit made, I have almost everything except the Green Imperial Flight Suit
It is very difficult to find the USMC Mechanic Utility Coverall (NSN # 8405-01-462-4298), Due to the size, they come with patches and there are very few. elbeco men's cdcr utility jumpsuit od green, It has been discontinued, there is little stock and there is a risk that the color will not be the same.
I don't know what to do and what other alternatives I have. Please can you help me. Thank you so much

Hi Javi!! Don’t worry my friend!! As I told you in our Forum, if you can’t find an ELBECO or USMC coverall, you can always look for other army coveralls, like the “original dutch army coverall air force mechanic” or “dutch army military coveralls” like our colleague @Jankes from the Polish Garrison (

However, other army coveralls may also be correct if they comply with the CRL.

Finally, you always have the possibility of making it custom made with olive green fabric.

 

Good luck!!

Javi your best bet is to get all of your web gear put together and paint it all the same shade. Thas what I did with mine. I used Montana Gold Army green for everything, it all matches.  Looking for L2 spec Im not so concerned about whehter or not its a USMC coverall- as long as its a single shade of green.  For my Impeiral Medic Trooper I went to a suit maker and he made me a suit entiredly from scratch out of olive green fabric.  Thats an option too.

Hello

 

Please can you advise me how and what I should do so that the boots appear worn out to qualify for the specialist level.

 

Thank you so much

There are a couple of ways to do it:

1: real mud.  I mow my yard and go tromping through the ditches at my house, getting real mud on them. 
2: craft paint. More durable than real mud that flakes off. I use a couple of different tan/browns, and a light grey, and mix one of thet wo colors for a new shade. That gets worked deep into the crevices and where mud naturally accumulates.  I know how I always looked in the Army, when I was out in the mud and slop, so thats where I dirty myself up. 

also, my goggles were always filthy from handling them, thas why I have mud on them.  Its actually more like a clay from my backyard, our clay in South Louisiana is typically grey or sometimes yellowish. 

In my boot pics here, taken before my L2 approval, I used craft paint to work the colors on permanently before going out to my ditch to get filthy.  My web gear nd helmet also have craft paints sponged on.

 

HTH and I look forward to your Specialist approval!

I say they look good, may want to blend the mud in a few spots on the right boot so that it looks like it was naturally occurring rather than painted on, but a lot better!
