  1. Different question, but still about the lightsabers. There are quite a few events in my area that don't seem to allow prop weapons, including lightsabers (with the blade in, anyway). Has anyone found a way to attach the hilts to the suit while still being practical and within the CRL? I'd really like to carry them around. For reference, I'm using Wicked Armor's Revan and my lightsabers are Ultrasabers. I bought them while still new to cosplay, or I would've gone with something else. They are on the heavier side, so I'm hesitant to strap them to the metal rings, and I can easily see them dragging the front/back of the armor down and out of place.
  2. To my knowledge, the sabers can both be the "Savior" model. Mine were approved, got both of them from Ultrasabers. If you get your kit from Wickedarmor, you have the option of buying a prop hilt that resembles the other hilt in the CRL. These are my sabers- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ixafafECFalyEIHQcXAOhO1MzRKh2pEg/view?usp=sharing
  3. Requesting detachment access I looked high and low for my costume gallery reference, following the directions on the forums up to this point but could not find it. This is the best link I can find. Let me know if there's other things I need to provide. https://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=36261
  4. The kit came in today! Took a while to put it together, and I'd like to ask for some tips with a few things. It seems like he updated his kit, because the ring straps are already leather straps and they are 1" wide and 1" to the ring. For the boots, I'm looking for feedback on where to glue the strap on-I included a rough sketch of where I thought it matches the CRL the most. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DU7HCIkj-tMy8xyKZCDCm0D91p5mErET/view?usp=sharing For the bracer/glove-I'm not sure if I need to buy a longer glove, or just get some help with putting the bracer on itself. The glove always seems to slide out or I end up with it looking like that. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1URmTkTxsYAGZmrUvwNdGUluYjXeOcYPb/view?usp=sharing Last pic is of it all put together in case y'all see anything else I might have missed. I followed his directions pretty well. (I have not done the clasps yet) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U5Lst7Gk2BvZcEce4wDdNFNS1b4JbzV8/view?usp=sharing
  5. Hi! I've already talked with someone in my (almost) garrison for building my first 501st kit. So far this is what I have (or am getting, pending input). My GML advised on posting here. Costume-helmet, cloth, armor, and leather: https://wickedarmor.com/collections/revan?fbclid=IwAR2LuTOvqfFzspozPGssPe8Vrpvsl_zfOc4JAC9B-QX5zFn9H3G06b4v6ZI Boots-will have strap cemented on and threads darkened to blend in https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717NVWvtyKL._AC_UY675_.jpg Pants (I'll be taking of the logo on the upper pant leg) https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hUqPy32DL._AC_UX679_.jpg Lightsaber (red)-Pommel will be painted black, gold appendage is to attach to belt loop fixture (Ultrasabers "Savior" build, I've seen accepted 501st with it, if I saw right) https://drive.google.com/file/d/13zgVQ6KfKsgHYENXLCx2aK-yOil4UAaL/view?usp=sharing Lightsaber (purple)-Ultrasabers "Butcher" build https://drive.google.com/file/d/14Ydv7U6lJ4nKRnbyIuHXL_GmZ7ChVfM8/view?usp=sharing Let me know if there's anything I need to change. Or get rid of. I've seen the Butcher saber on Wookiepedia but not on the CRL, so I'm not sure if that's approved. Thank you!
  6. Hello! I'm from Utah, looking to be part of the 501st Alpine Garrison starting with a Revan kit. I'm joining the 501st because I love Star Wars, and being able to help out others while being part of something I love sounds like a win-win situation. I'm still getting a feel for the forums. Is there a specific place I can post for guidance with building Revan?
