Under the Hood Nom Anor, WIP Sketch and Fibreglass

As part of this ritual I have been designing a Vong Sigil based on icon seen in this comic; And in their faction symbol in Star Wars Miniatures I designed and sketched for a while before arriving here; I sculpted this piece first in apoxie putty, made a silicone mold, and after some experimentation made this casting with Smooth Cast 326 and EVO red colourant; More to come.

Good afternoon, I encourage images of your work in progress and the research images you are building from. This will help your colleague understand where you are at and allow for meaningful feedback. Welcome to The Flagship Eclipse.

Good evening, You may wish to try Pros-aide. It is a medical grade adhesive. Water Acrylic emulsion Non-hazardous Glycerol Guar gum Sorbitol Benzyl alcohol I swear by it. Be well

Good afternoon, I will be happy to challenge the notion that non canon Sith cannot troop with 501st at events. (This was from last year at the staging area for the televised Dragon*Parade. Forsooth, 501st and Dark Empire characters troop together in the same way we would with the Mandalorian Mercs and Rebel Legion. Different communities, all costumes, all good.

Thank you Jades Sword for your question, and Eliste for your thoughtful response. Mara in the adventures of the Swarm Wars: Dark Nest is dedicated to the Jedi Cause. Earlier in her career, when she had been selected by the Emperor as his capable Hand, she was a servant of the Empire. As Mara Jade, Choices of One demonstrates, Mara acted as a hero, even while serving the Empire. It is her appearance while in alliance with the Empire that makes a 501st approvable costume. Be well, Thomas

I estimate that I am into my sixth hour on this submission. This is the costume that Tom is trying to replicate, and the most recent image I have of his suit; I wrote to the GML privately and in response to his query in the GML/ GWL forum on the 501st in support of Tom’s costume. I believe he has read my illustrated response because Tom has shared a lettre that appears to be written by the GML in question, dismissing my input and asking that Tom keep his costuming concerns within his garrison. LMO Capell contacted me and we had a live conversation on Tom’s approval. The LMO team pledged to back my assessment. But without GML and GCO cooperation there is no way to force the approval. So we can welcome Tom within the Detachment, update the CRL to better reflect accumulated knowledge, invite him into group photos and cheer Tom on. We just cannot sell him patches.

Looks to be a handsome build in the making. Bravo.

Detachment Leader Pam Simpson once had a SW Miniature-based costume approved in the 501st. The Black Sun Bith Vigo might qualify. I think we might need a canon name though. (Wikipedia/fan-made entries without citation are not acceptable.) Be it approvable or not, I encourage you to make it. Be well, Thomas

Thank you Rachel, you are an inspiration. I find myself working on three costume projects simultaneously. Just in a better space in my Life to do so. It is freeing. On this project front I have finished accessorizing the maquette. This gave me a good idea of how I would like to make the full sized cloak. I started working on the helmet lense buck. Several steps and much sanding latter I arrived here; The refined fibreglass buck I hope to use in my first vacuum forming experience. Once I have the lens I will sculpt the rest of the helmet for fibreglass casting. Be well.
