Hi I am Caitlin, a future Georgia Garrison member (Joining once I turn 18). I am working on the Arica Bodysuit costume and I also plan on being a stormtrooper in the future. I love cosplay and volunteering so I figured it would be a great way to meet people with similar interests and to give back.  I am super excited and can't wait to start trooping!

Hey Austin, we're happy to help get you set up.  There are a number of things that need to be done to make that costume 501st approved, but nothing too terrible.  Check the existing threads first, and then feel free to start a WIP and we can help you with any steps along the way.

Hi Quinn, that was likely a result of an error that occurred during the server migration.  Glad to have you back.

Welcome Caitlin, there's no time too early to start on your costume, we're happy to help you get started, and if you get enough of the prep work done, you could even consider trying to get your Join date the same as your birthday.  Let us know if you need any help.

Hey everyone, I'm Eddie. Currently I am a member of the New England Garrison, but will be transferring down to Star Garrison soon. I troop as an ANH TIE Pilot and an Old Republic Jedi, but I am also working on Starkiller's TIE Factory Training Gear. I have a lot left to go on it but it's in the works. I've been a member of the 501st for almost 3 years now but have had a hard time getting to troops in New England as most are at least 2 hours away, but there seem to be a lot of troops located close to where I'll be moving in Texas so that should be just the kick in the butt that I need to get cracking on my Starkiller build. Anyway I look forward to getting to know you all, MTFBWY.

I feel your pain Eddie, I went from being in an area where I did over 30 troops a year, to now being happy to do one a month.  Keep on keepin' on.  As for Starkiller, check out those threads, learn what you can and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Rebel s... are wonderful!   Welcome Tim, we have a lot of great Starkiller costumers on this side of the Force, just as do the Rebels, just remember which ones have the cookies.  As for what to do, check out the existing topic, and then feel free to post a work in progress thread of your own.  There are plenty of great folks around to give you some help.  If you don't get help, let me know and I'll find some.  :)

Welcome David!  I'm the opposite, but current circumstances prevent me from having anywhere to work on my Merc kit

Naturally, feel free to check out the Revan threads, and there are PAGES of them.   Lots of information to just fill your melon with.  Then of course, a WIP thread of your own and feel free to ask questions.  Let us know if we may be of any assistance.

Where did you get that Armor set at? Mainly the Chest and cod piece. Just went through your WIP on your Mando.. Very nice so far. 

 

Could you recommand a couple threads on the Revan.  Love to find some good patterns for the soft pieces and maybe some builds/makers of the armor pieces. (or at least some guidance) I have looked around and find a little bit.

 

Cheers and get that Mando Done Vode!!!!

Hello! I'm Christina and planning on joining the Northern Darkness Garrison. I'm working on building Asajj Ventress. The reason I'm joining the 501st is my love of Star Wars, my geekiness, friendships, and the happiness I always see on kids faces when they see these characters. I love bonding with people and I love making others smile. Sounds cliche, yes, but it's the truth. :)

Hi, I'm María García from Guatemala (Central America) , looking to join Jaguar Outpost Guatemala. I've already finish my Arica / Mara Jade costume.

The reason why I want to join the 501st is because I love Star Wars also because I believe and enjoy giving back to my community specially when you bring joy to children and people in need. I've been into SW cosplay world for over 5yrs and there are only two guys at this moment in my country that are part of the 501st, hopefully I'll be the first woman to join in my country. I would love to show you my costume so you can tell me if it fulfill the standards required by 501st to join. Best wishes to all.

Hello, my name is Imperial Pirate Gal aka Tiffanie McDevitt. I am from the Alpine Garrison which I have been a member for a year and have been one of the photographers since I joined. I joined with my husband, a Shadow Trooper, because we love to do charity work and hoped that we could teach our 3 kids the importance of this while sharing our love of Star Wars. I am getting ready to move forward with my Mara Jade in the black body suite and look forward getting her done. I am reposting since I have been having troubles logging in.

The CRLs are a great guide, but definitely feel free to dig around on the threads and see if there is something that may still be useful to you.  And certainly don't hesitate to ask questions.  Welcome to the boards Clair!

Jon from Indiana here.

 

I'm currently working on a TK for my 501st acceptance into the Bloodfin Garrison. I'm a member (Generic Jedi) of the Rebel Legion's Mos Espa Base.

 

Got into troopin' because I love dressing up, Star Wars, and volunteering my time for a good cause. :)

 

I'm wanting to start working on a Sith Acolyte once I finish my TK. Figured it'd be a good mix of my current costumes. I'd get to have hard armor/helmet like a TK and cloak/lightsaber like a Jedi. Plus... they look really cool!

Hello,

 

Darien from San Diego, CA

 

Currently looking at and will need help with building Darth Revan, looking to join Imperial Sands Garrison (formerly San Diego Squad). Order the "Fallen" by Saber Forge - 7/2/15, they are back ordered for 6-8wks, so gives me time to start the build.

 

New Member to San Diego Star Wars Societies and the newly formed Saber Legion - SoCal Charter.

 

Former member of a motorcycle club, wanting to do something more....i do still ride tho, "RevanRider" explained.

 

Found 501st and SDSWS thru youtube of all places; the Celebration '15 vids, so I checked out the FB pages to all and saw that it was something i would enjoy. Kinda brings me back to my days as a character and escort at six flags MM.

Welcome Jon, we're glad to have you here.  I know the desire to diversify, the Acolyte will be a cool costume to add I am sure.  Check out the boards here,for the Acolyte, they're very informative.  Some may require a bit of digging for the details you seek.  If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask.  :)

Those new sabers are pretty nice Darien.  I had a custom one made that took 2 years, so I know the pain of waiting.  Hopefully you do get yours soon though, I've seen a couple in person and they're quite nice.  We'd be happy to answer any questions you have over in the Revan threads.  I also suggest some thorough digging around, there are a lot of old threads that have great information lurking about.

Welcome Alex, there are a number of different people who make parts for that costume I believe, and our thread section has some of that information floating around.  If you can't find what you're looking for, start a post there and shoot me a message, I'll do a little digging myself.
