I believe that was sourced from the concept art photo with the high res references.

I would love to see additional species in the detachment!
The only factors are making sure the 360° details are present, which the quick scan of the above seems to cover. It will be difficult to use both figure and comic, so make sure you take that into consideration with mapping out the details.

That's just as good to hear. Costumes for the love of the character and not just for approval are just as important ❤️.

Didn't see until now, but so long as you're getting the updated versions and it is sized to your daughter, they should be fine. The big issue used to be he only had 1 mask for both versions (which made KOTOR II not approvable with it), but Rob's new sets are good so long as you wear them properly.

Sizing and sanding are my last favorite aspects of 3D stuff.

Yeah most of the commentary has been getting forwarded to the build group of Facebook for active responses.
I spoke with your partner about the red fabric and how it looks like the first major difference in texture to the files. The rest looks good, but there is a crap ton of reference shots from the files and screenshots in the FB group to compare to.

Going to try and add this to the gallery section if it will allow! Thank you!

I know the original costume creator had hers custom made since the boys are very, VERY specific to the character. If may be very difficult to find a retail option that matches the required details.
-
This looks fantastic, but I just want to give you head's up that the 501st and Rebel Legion have an agreement to not have cross-approved OG heroes. Things may be different now, but I want you to have all the information just in case it is a factor in the creation of the costume.

We've been talking off forum, but just wanted to say that I'm SUPER EXCITED to have Sith dino in TFE 😛😛😛

Just for record purposes, I've been working with this member off forum. 🙂

The V2 has a crisper mask setup and the bracers and back are updated.

This topic was posted in the wrong section, so it was most likely missed because of that. This is the section for existing CRL updates.

As a head's up, no one vendor is 100% approvable. Even if the armor and soft parts are accurate, they must be proportionate to you to be completely approvable.
Below is a list of vendors that are not accurate or approvable, even if they advertise as such.
Please do your research or double check with us before pulling the trigger on a purchase you aren't sure of.
CosplaySky
For obvious reasons, the armor is not hard and the soft parts are not accurate.
Walt's Trooper Factory
The back plate is not accurate, and the mask is closer to SWTOR style, which is NOT approvable. There is no kidney armor and the ab plate is not accurate.
Most ETSY vendors
Be careful as most take artistic license with design OR just base theirs off the SWTOR mask, which again, is not accurate or approvable. The approved costume in the 501st is only the KOTOR game version. Not the fan art, not the statues or busts, my and not the figures version. They are NOT interchangeable.
3D print files
Same as ETSY vendors.

If you can get all the details in senior without any attachment points (weld lines, seams, rivers, etc) then there is nothing stopping such.
Also, if you want to do a helmet style, so long as the front matches mask references from the game, that's fine with me.
-
The details don't look quite clear enough on the film version, so I am not sure about it. Generally, with the live action stuff, the details are held to a much higher caliber give the level of detail, so you would have to ask LMOs if they would accept it.

A head's up for anyone planning on making Mandalore the Ultimate:
As of this week, the Detachment staff, LMOs, and approved members with the costume have agreed to change the existing BH designation of Mandalore the Ultimate to the new designation of MW (Mandalorian). This designation covers Mandalorians who were not historically Bounty Hunters, and fits better to the character's story. This will change nothing except the letters in front of the TKID for the specific costume, and he will be remaining within TFE!
The change will take effect next week.

Forgot about this thread for a while!
since school started I haven’t had much time to work on this costume, but I did get most of the armor finished and was able to do a suit up before summer ended.
I’m not wearing them here, but I’ve made version 1 of the boot rings discussed in the other Grand inquisitor boots thread. As it seems right now, there needs to be some updates made to the CRL. Where does that process begin? Who should I talk to? My costume isn’t finished yet, but I’d like to have an idea of where to turn when it is.
You'll want to post the specified changes with current and proposed changes images to compare here:

The references show a more weathered warm tone grey combo vs the current cool tone greys. Otherwise it is looking good!

Welcome!
I am originally from Germany (Offenbach/Frankfurt area) but living in the US now. -
Hooray for flat cheeks!

This is the build group many used for their research. The group is unofficial and not moderated by the 501st, but the resources are a great utility.

You can always talk to Gio, the resident Legion custom boots maker, about them. I think he made the other ones.
