Hello and thanks for the invite!

I am new to the cosplay Groups universe. I am currently in the process of getting approved with the Rebel Legion Generic Grey Jedi General. I am just now looking at the 501st as well, upsate NY chapter, so I am also interested in researching the options for this group of Bounty Hunters and Scum & Villainy.

I am also looking specifically for someone with experience in assembling Imperial Surplus armor kits.

Hello!
I'm Laura from the Spanish Garrison.
I just approved the costume of Dr Aphra Red Vest A.
I have been in the Legion 501 since 2015 and I also belong to other associations such as Mandalorian Mercs and Rebel Legion.
I love being able to wear the outfits of my favorite saga and help others.
A greeting from Spain!

Hello Flagship Eclipse!

I'm Ryan, I've been all over but I'll be in Ohio for the foreseeable future. So my garrison will be Ohio! I started my Star Wars costume journey 6 years ago at Celebration, and I joined the MMCC shortly after. I was always intimidated by the 501st, and afraid that the standards were beyond my skill, but after 5 solid years and twice as many costumes, I've committed to Revan. I have a special place for that character, KOTOR/KOTORII were some of the first games I got REAL into, and Revan is literally an anagram of my name. I'll be posting in the Revan specific forum soon with some things like double checking on sources. I look forward to getting to know everyone!

Hello everyone,

My name is Greg, I live in Lehi Utah. I'm a member of SaberGuild SG-309 and I cosplay Darth Malak. I'll be working on joining the 501st Alpine Garrison so I can join the Flagship. I have wanted to join the 501st for a long time, I admire their dedication to charity and look forward to helping with whatever I can.IMG_7366.thumb.jpg.a9b602ad69830c42aa9bf818be988219.jpg

Hello,

I'm Taylor from Buffalo, NY.  I was recently approved with Visas Marr, unseen unheard version.  I'm very excited to be a part of the 501st now and I love being able to give back to other groups and help so many through doing something I love.

Hello, TI-91991 (Mitch) of the Ohio Garrison here.  Current costumes include TIE Reserve and ANH TIE Pilot, but I have joined this forum because I am slowly piecing together a Hoth (Dark Lord's Armor) Starkiller and my wife is now a Juno Eclipse.

Please post where you are from, what Garrison you are/will be a part of, what costume you are looking at doing, and why you are joining (or joined) the 501st. This is so we can all get to know each other!

I'm from Michigan and will probably join the Great Lakes Garrison.  I'm actually looking at doing a Darth Bane costume if I can find more detail on the version I would like to do.  After I'm done with that I plan on doing a Mandalorian.  I am also working on a Mara Jade costume for my wife.  Once I get an approved costume I would join the 501st to meet up with like minded individuals and help out with charity drives.

Hello from the Connecticut Garrison,  Im a GML/GWL and built a few kits now and looking at a Sith Acolyte.    The Sith have always been one of my favorite characters in the SW universe and now its time to Represent one!    I joined the 501st not too long ago, in 2017 as a Shadow TX,  then build a FO Executioner, and a SnowTrooper.  

My Legion Profile:

https://www.501st.com/members/displaymember.php?userID=25049&costumeID=134

I also assist Running the FB group: First Order Stormtroopers so for those that are FOs might know me. 

I also Build Gonk Droids, so for those that are part of the Gonk Droid Builders Group, you may know me there too.

Lastly, im looking for resources on the Acolyte build, so if anyone can recommend merchants that are vetted, that would be great. thanks all

Andy

If you can manage to get a hold of one of Mynock Den's kits, they are by far, the best I have seen for sale.
You can contact him on his ETSY here or at his website here

Excited to see the result!

You can post your WIP here when you are ready to start. Also included in that sub-forum are quick links to the available Acolyte reference images and the 501st CRL.

Time Permitting, is there anyone that can create a new topic under the Acolyte section with all the vetted vendors / resources avail and Pin it.

Weve done that in a few forums now and helps members out.  just a like to have :)

I'm Craig from Augusta GA. Currently I have a ANH Storm Trooper under review for approval but I also had to do my favorite character which is Revan. I've been a Star Wars fan as long as I can remember. Currently I help my local 501st Garrison every chance I get.
