  1. I really wish someone would submit the Black Series version and the SWTOR Shadow version. As far as the silver weathering, I got a pair of black leather boots, put some white shoe cleaner on it (the squeezy liquid stuff), and then wiped it off after a few seconds. Small areas at a time until you cover the whole boot, otherwise it'll dry too much and you'll just have white.
  2. It's because you didn't log in for a 365 day period and were automatically put as inactive, shutting off most access. I'll change it to SLD in a few minutes, just make sure you log in within the next year to avoid it happening again.
  3. You are moving along nicely! What armor set did you get and where did you get the neck seal? It looks fantastic.
  4. You'll need to provide reference images for exactly what you are referring to.
  5. Neat!
  6. Literature never takes precedence in references unless accompanied by a visual reference (such as visual guides). Also, Black Series are still a viable reference. You are probably thinking of the fact that someone wanted to use it as a KOTOR reference and I said no, but it would stand on its own as a version.
  7. Also, here is the entry from the CRL for the hilts.
  8. I put the link to only one of the photos in the drive vs all of the photos, in the drive, so new link is updated with correct one.
  9. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Y78lySVDhmZVNOU3GolG0zvlQmo7ImpM *did the wrong link to only one photo vs the drive. COrrect link included now.
  10. Correct.
  11. It's hard to gauge proportions with what you have pictured. I would say spot-attach the helmet and take full-body front and sides photos, then I can really gauge the proportions. In terms of details, they look crisp and such, but based on the legacy armor screenshot I am seeing some differences in the nose bridge and a lack of the indented square areas on the mouth section that are on your print. easy enough to fill, but watch out for little details like that. Otherwise, it is looking good.
  12. Congrats!!!!!
  13. Whatever is easiest for you. My email is nina501st@gmail.com
  14. Nooooooooooo. That is the post-KOTOR hilt. You'll want to stay far away from that one.
  15. The general rule of thumb is that if you cna show a complete 360 degree detail reference from OFFICIAL sources, and those references are cohesive, then the character is approvable (pending dark side eligibility, ofc). Those references need to show a majority of the same details, parts, and colors. I say majority because comics are often not cohesive from panel to panel, much less issue to issue. So, you take all the references you can find, and bunch together those that are similar, and that is your reference pool. Even if you can show different parts being majority similar, it still works (the majority of boot references might not match the majority of armor references, and so forth).
  16. I know some people have tried (Darth Atroxa comes to mind), but I don't believe LFL ever responded. They aren't too keen on releasing anything that isn't already public.
  17. @BHAsajj would be the person to ask on this.
  18. I'm glad the video idea worked out for you! The 2D skin rendering on the models was what I was referring to on the details. You can't tell planes or depths because it is all flattened. Your in-game shots work great for that aspect.
  19. This looks slick! I need to redo mine (again) as I forgot to put in the flexible structure strip to keep it from folding under itself.
  20. Props Foundry does nice detail, but from what I've seen, their proportions are HUGE. The mask is way too big and almost reaches to the chest on a lot of people. The new ultrasaber version you linked looks lightyears ahead of their previous model. ALso, yes, for dual-wielding, they are the exact same hilt.
  21. Never hurts to ask, and feel free to send me whatever references you have so I can check what we are working with!
  22. The character does not exist in the CRL databank, but in order to be eligible to be added, the costume must be built using official and cohesive references that show an entire 360 degree view of the character for details. That part is usually the killer for a lot of characters in joining the 501st roster.
  23. I'd have to see other angles of the helmet to say. There are definitely some that we are not accepting that are printed.
  24. According to web god, Tapatalk is no longer supported through the forum as the new forums have a built in mobile version. It was causing too many errors.
  25. I'd say so! Looks like a nice affordable version for folks.
