  1. Very carefully remove the plastic silver covers try not to damage the leather straps. Once you done that cut the straps at the middle of the area that was covered by the silver plastic cover you just removed. Now measure where the ring should be and glue the silver plastic back working like extensions . The missing leather is then cover by the silver covers :)

     

    If you did damage the exposed now leather straps use acrylic balck and silver to re paint it and bob is you uncle ;)

  2. with regards to the question of the 3 perfect aligned folds again depends on if you are going for approval with your local garrison

     

    so the safest thing to do is ask your local GML on EU

     

    if he is here then he will be able to anser your question in this thread

     

    .....................................

     

     

    One thing that i do find hard is that do to the fact that each garrison judges its own local memebrs there are discrepancies on standars with some people getting approved with basic standars and other having to do loads of changes to meet the critiria

  3. Well I know you have been supporting my claim that Revan should be allowed in the RL so from that point im sure they will come up with a final desicion on the sabers

     

    but on the 501st CRL they show a completely different saber with no image reference to KOTOR II

     

     

    You dont need a saber to get approved bu in my garrison UKG you can only get approved with the one from wookipedia

     

    so it will be good to ask your local 501st GML

     

    Remember that the 501st deals with approval by GML at a local level not world wide like the RL

     

    so your best bet is contacting SOCAL Garrison GML for the right saber

  4. First i built a mannequin so the armor could be casted for my body shape

    from VV and JQ number 20 out of 25 in the world

  5. I have to say that even though this costume doesn't truly match the reference images... it still reminds me of a work of art! It really is beautiful.

     

    Pam :-)

     

    yes indeed its beautiful :) and sorry i said his i didn't know it was a woman

     

    for that i have to say she has done an amazing job at her Revan costume. to bad its not canon :(

  6. l like the detail of the armour but i agree this Revan is not canon

     

    also the clasps at the top will need to be replaced

     

    to something like this

     

    live4337_882248_10151332310311497_402141721_o.jpg

     

     

    also the mask looks more like the mask used in SWTOR and not the KOTOR mask

    another thing i can see is that his under shirt has a pattern texture like breathing holes

    needs to be black solid no texture

  7. 1. Congrats on being accepted.

     

    2. I haven't seen your costume submitted to the Legion GML thread yet. Revan has to be approved by the LMO to get your SL and get your costume added to your 501st profile.

     

    Not sure what happens behind the scene . my GML needs to contact the legion GML?

     

    I did selected my SL id SL33961 but i am awaiting confrimation that the process has been completed

     

    this is what my GML wrote to me

     

    Yerrp, just see it in the main 501st UKG membership rota pending list.

    For some reason your requested numbers were not there so I put in 33961 and 39613 and processed your request as 'Ready For Duty'.

    Hopefully you should get a mail through pretty soon from the 501st confirming your processed and APPROVED application

    I'll keep an eye out on my side and if I see any problems I'll give them a kick up the backside and gee them up to get it sorted.

    Take care mate

    Billy

  8. .Dear Alan Molina,

     

    Your clearance submission for the costume of 'Darth Revan' has been reviewed by the GML.

     

    Congratulations! Your costume has been cleared for trooping. We are pleased to welcome your Darth Revan into the ranks of the UK Garrison.

     

    Sith Lord status in the 501st !!!!

  9. I actually think the way your cowl lays open is perfect..

     

    Thats what i thought to

     

    In the RL we have judges for the whole RL not Garrison based

     

    this way all standars are the same

     

    this is what i need to do from my GML

     

    "The ring that the red sash hangs from needs lowering so that the top is only just sat on the abs armour.

    The hood needs an alteration making so that it is more of a cowl, having an connecting piece of fabric at the bottom, runing along the chest just above the armor.

    The undershirt also needs a seam running horizontal across the upper chest."

     

    I did asked for images to do this because i could not find this on the CRL

     

    by en-zozallow » Mon, 25 Mar 2013 6:26 pm

     

    And yes i have a back plate . So for the cowl is that the same material of the hood just wrAp behind the armor or do i need to get more material

     

    I cant really see this extra material on the 501st CRL

     

    Same as the ring that low

     

    Is there an image where this ring is that low? And if there is why is it not on the CRL ?

     

    I do see that im missing the pipping on the under shirt From the CRL

     

    Are we not using the CRL for costume approval?

     

    http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:SL_revan

     

    GML repply

     

    CRLs are just guidelines mate for explaining aras of the costume. Just because something is missing from it doesn't mean that it shouldn't be on the costume. I look at images of a persons outfit and compare it to reference images of the character, its easier that way.

     

    The material at the bottom of the cowl, I'd just get a piece of similar material to what the rest is made from and attach it to the inside to mimic the look.

    As for the piping, that is what I refered to as the seam running along the upper chest.

     

    I always use this reference for Revan

    I dont want to sound conflictive but its abeautiful armor made by MWA and it was not cheap and if im ahcking and adding stuff i want it to be the right stuff thats why i asked

  10. Thanks buddy

     

    Yes the under shirt will be replaced for a proper turtle neck and add a pipping to it .

     

     

    My GML told me to lower the ring a bit more. which i have done by extending the leather straps.

     

     

    not sure what you mean by my chest..

     

    I have ordered some clips and will be replacing those

     

    he also said to add material like the one from the hood and add this under the chest plate

     

    to make the hood look more like a cowl.

     

     

    this is one thing that is very confusing in the 501st each GML ha sits own standars.

     

    so its very hard to please everyone

     

    some revans get approved without any modification at all
