That top left red fabric seems to match the texture as well!
There is also a Merrin build group on Facebook you could join. I am not on my normal computer so can't log in and get the link, but it is there!

Just now, tragix said:

The CRL is complete, there were just so many incorrect masks being approved that LMO agreed to keep it so that GMLs have to submit it for approval in the costume advice area of the 501st forums.
It's still perfectly fine to build and submit.

Die LMOs haben dieses Kostüm SLD zugewiesen

Honestly, if it is a little darker it isn't much issue in my mind. If it's super dark, you can even get some temporary hair wax in brown to make it lighter without commitment, and it washes out easy.

We're about 1.5 weeks away from all 501st elections! This means Legion level, Detachments, Garrisons, Squads, and Outposts!
Make sure you are prepared for TFE Detachment elections by ensuring you are listed as the correct Detachment Member rank. Also check with each Detachment to ensure that you fulfill their specific requirements if they are different!
For TFE directions, please see here:
I will be doing the final update to the 501st roster for TFE on Jan 28th, so please make sure you are correctly listed (your name should be in orange if you are not part of command).
Cheers and long live democracy!

Nah, it's more just an aesthetic recommendation. The foam is there to create the puffy-yet-flat chest appearance as seen in the game, but the rough edge gives a line across when you move.
-
Looks fine to me. Only thing I'd recommend is maybe thinning or bevelling the foam under the top so the edge isn't so pronounced through the fabric.
-
Attach to the front permanently and use the back as a secure point like Velcro or whatnot.

Welcome!
Also, having the ovals printed as a single piece will give you a better secure point for back and front, forgot to mention that!

They look fine enough. My only concerns are that you'd want to print the two half ovals on the lower section as a single oval so there isn't a seam, and then the outside of the vambraces don't have the strip along the length, just the inside. Easy fixes, though.
-
Sure just make sure to tag me so I see the notification. My phone is very pissy on what it actually notifies me of lol.

I would definitely recommend that you make contact with the Underworld Detachment for this character. It seems like one that the LMOs would assign to them.

The LMOs voted them into SLD

On quick inspection, there are discrepancies between the chest details, shoulder armor, and boots. I didn't look super close at the rest, but those would need to be changed to match references if she were to apply.
-
There are several things they would need to be updated before it could pass, but if they're interested in getting it approved, we could talk.

Here are the results for the last several costume request votes by LMOs for assignment to TFE:
Darth Talon (Galaxy of Heroes) - pass
Marrok - pass
The Great Mothers - pass
Morgan Elsbeth - pass
Joorus C'Baoth - fail (not 501st eligible)
Baylon Skoll - pass for 501st inclusion, still awaiting vote for TFE or SLD.
Shin Hati - pass for 501st inclusion, still awaiting vote for TFE or SLD.This means that any future submissions for those that have passed will not need to go through another vote and will just need to be submitted for approval of the costume as a New to the Legion (NTTL).
It is TFE policy to not start an official CRL of requirements until we have an approved costume as the intent is to get the costumer to build to the references with a WIP and guidance instead of building to text. Generally, CRLs have a habit of pigeon-holing people prior to a build. No matter how well you word a CRL, it will always be less accurate than the references, and it is my stance that we should build using the 100% accurate reference to get a realistic 90%+ accuracy first costume to use in the CRL. Strive for reference with realistic application.
At some point, SLD and TFE will need to sit down and hash out what our designations and new character assignment details will be, as the definitions are becoming more and more hazy as releases come. Both Detachments will be working with LMOs over this, and I will keep you updated as to what that will mean/result in. Rest assured that the TFE team will do our absolute best to represent our Detachment and ensure that we are given equal stance in opportunity for new characters as your representatives.

Yes, definitely recommend waiting for TotE to get a better idea!
