Dry brushing with acrylics is a popular one.

The rest of the thread isn't loading for me (thanks crappy wifi) but the top is looking good! I would recommend weathering each strip so it is very obvious of the pattern and layout.

Welcome! If you could please post here with the info so that we can keep track, we can get it processed. https://www.theflagshipeclipse.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1660-501stsld-andor-tfe-detachment-access-requests/

Congrats! What's your TKID? Also, you can join the TFE Comm-Tower on FB after you answer the questions. https://www.facebook.com/groups/TFECommTower/

Until they release more reference for her, she does not qualify for 501st addition.

The first 2 file images seem to match the model pretty well from what I can tell without having a back image to go off of.

That would be acceptable.

Hopefully not too late, but I think these look just fine. KUDOS on the square toe!

Comm-Tower Spotlights: July 2020 We’re pleased to introduce you to The Flagship Eclipse member DS-71219; otherwise known as Jessi Smith. Jessi is from Carolina Garrison, and is our TFE Member in the spotlight for this month’s Newsletter! They took some time to have a chat with Lauren / Flutefreak05, one of our TFE PR Officers. FF: When did you join the 501st Legion and why did you join? Jessi: I joined in August of 2018. I joined because I wanted to be involved in the charity work and enjoy bringing smiles to people’s faces. It gives me so much joy to make someone’s day by representing EU characters. FF: Why did you choose to join The Flagship Eclipse Detachment? Jessi: My favorite characters are in the extended universe so I wanted to be a part of this amazing detachment. FF: What is your favorite costume and what is your favorite character? Jessi: My favorite costume and character is Mara Jade. She is an amazing strong female character. This costume is especially meaningful to me as it matches my husband's Luke Skywalker costume and we can enjoy this hobby together. FF: What is your dream costume and what are your future costume plans? Jessi: My dream 501st costume is the Second Sister. Currently I am making a transport security officer from Solo.

Comm-Tower Spotlights: June 2020 We’re pleased to introduce you to The Flagship Eclipse member SL-62000; otherwise known as Scott Moss. Scott is from Bloodfin Garrison, and is our TFE Member in the spotlight for this month’s Newsletter! He took some time to have a chat with Lauren / Flutefreak05, one of our TFE PR Officers. FF: When did you join the 501st Legion and why? Scott: I joined the Legion in 2017. The reason has become clouded after these years of trooping. I want to say it was for the charity aspect of it but sometimes I think it was for the reason to dress up and be someone else for a bit. FF: Why did you choose to join The Flagship Eclipse Detachment? Scott: TBH, I was tired of trooping at troops where all of us Imperials were not allowed to have weapons and the Jedi were allowed to carry their glow sticks. I looked at all of the 501st saber wielders and fell in love with the look of Revan. I then started studying his back story and fell even more in love with the character. It was this that drove me to the Flagship. FF: What is your favorite costume and what is your favorite character? Scott: My favorite costume is a close tie between my Shadowtrooper and Darth Revan. The shadow was what I wanted to join the legion back in 2012. Never happened. It was my 3rd approval. Revan is my 6th approval and quickly became a favorite. The lore and the overall badassery of the character is quite alluring. As far as a favorite character in Star Wars, it’s complicated. I enjoy the fandom as a fan. I am dark side and want movies showing the dark side winning. So my favorite characters are the “bad guys”. FF: What is your dream costume and what are your future costume plans? Scott: My dream costume is a classic Battlestar Galactica Cylon. Future plans are to get an approved Mandalorian so I can join my oldest as a Merc.

Yeah I could definitely give another eye to possibility of approval for certain vendors.

Have you thought of using those silicone pads that they have for braless wear? You could stick the sticky side to the inside of the armor and then have the silicone against your skin.

Mynock's Den is the majority dude that folks get their armor parts to assemble from, but I believe you have to source the soft parts.

Well, you need to find someone to trade or buy from first. They are going out to people who ordered rhem diring the run.

I'm shipping out to folks who want to risk the USPS uncertainty so thy will start being in the wold next week.
