As Justin said, we will tell you all we can which should be pretty much everything after the final episode as far as costuming goes. I would just like to add that we should not discuss any of the story or plot points since this has not been released in all markets and I would hate to ruin the story for our international brothers and sisters.

Having seen the movie 10 hours ago, I think J.J. Abrams brought the Skywalker saga to a dignified end.

Definitely be building one in the future, but yes I have had my hands full of late, literally

Footage as well as figures can be used for CRL's, we've seen CRL's made previous just on figures Spec Ops wasn't going to approve any new CRL's until after the movie had been released so I'm sure work will be continuing now

Main Strapping After altering the size of the AB section i cut six holes out at equal spacing on the rear (3 on each side of the opening at the rear) installed small brass eyelets to these and fed a simple shoe lace through - this then acts as a corset type fastening and just needs tightening then tieing up when getting the kit on. The harness was created by using some old large trouser braces - I cut the clip ends off and applied some snaps to these with the opposite ends glued in place on the inside of the AB section, I can then adjust the braces up and down as required and its pretty easy to get the AB section on then clip these into place over your shoulders. (cant find a pic at the moment so will post one later) Thighs - I created a suspender belt type system wit an old black leather belt and some elastics connected from this to snaps at the tops of the thighs - same as my OTTK works really well Finally some painting...... So after getting to a point that I was happy with all of the cuts, trims etc I got straight into the final surface prep ready for primer and then paint - been a long time getting to this point... All of my painting was done over the summer (well if you can call it that in the UK), I didnt have access to a garage / workshop all of the time so alot was done over many nights in my garden after work or at weekends, sanding and then primer and once I was totally happy all of the minute pinholes had been dealt with I finally started to apply the gloss paint I would apply the paint then dry it out for a day or so then lightly sand back with a high grade paper 2000+ and then re apply another coat of paint, I did this to slowly build up a good number of paint layers, finally achieving the finish i was after. I then left each piece to dry in our house (not the shed) - the wife was not amused - for a good week or so until i was happy the paint had hardened enough Various bits after painting Glove with decal applied next it was the final push to get all gaskets positioned correctly so i could then velcro these in place to the matching armour pieces and also finish off the decal application

Congratulations Trooper Welcome to centurion !!! Felicitaciones Tocayo, , Bienvenido a Centurion !!!

After alot of cutting various pieces down, trimming and filling to get better shapes I had a quick kit up - with the all important tape holding everyhing in place, I really wanted to get a feel for where the kit was and to see what other adjustments were needed This pic was before I had finished the thigh shaping at the bottom and just before i finished the lid upgrades..no hard hat liner hence why I'm holding it in place As can be seen from this pic I went back and bought in my leg gaskets some more as they were still bunching too much Not a bad place to be in, now it was time to finish all of the strapping and then onto the final surface prep work before primer and paint

See below pic of TD, with decals added etc

Yes. I will do that. Thank you

Nice work, Mario. Thanks, and a big CONGRATULATIONS on your Centurion rank, mi hermano!!

Congratulations!

I believe members have made CRL's based on a lot less info and images in the past. Comes down to if you want something bad enough, you would spend the time scouring the internet and all avenues of resource for anything and everything from as many angles as possible. Certainly wouldn't be the first time its been done in the legion

Congratulations Mario and welcome to Centurion rank

There is footage that looks to have wound up on the cutting room floor, pretty standard for all movies, so I dare say watch out for deleted scenes on one of the many format releases of Blu ray Digital and 4KHD releases over the next year.

Hi Mario, Thanks for your application, and thank you for the fixes from your EIB application! CRL and Centurion Application Requirements All required photos are now in and, after review, we are pleased to welcome you to Centurion! On behalf of the DO team and myself, many congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly In this area we discuss areas that could benefit from additional improvement. Note that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions First, although the tube stripes should look hand-painted, you should clean yours up a bit, just to give your helmet a cleaner look. Reference Image: Next, thanks for updating the position of the 5 ab buttons. It looks like they might be separate pieces, though, so it would really streamline your look if you were able to find buttons that were integrated, the way that the buttons in the larger ab panel are. This isn't mentioned either way in the CRL and it's also not clear either way from the game screenshots, so I'm simply leaving it as a suggestion. Reference Image: And that's it! Congratulations on reaching Centurion.

Ask away and I'm sure we'll do our best without blatantly violating our NDAs or revealing anything from the last episode.

I would suggest shortening the shoulder elastic. That would pull the body up a bit. It also looks like you could adjust the chest snaps that would raise the ab up. Sent from my 5054N using Tapatalk

You are most welcome buddy! I'm glad to hear your experience with 'The Imperial Factory' was a pleasent one Love the finishes it's beautiful Sent from my Redmi K20 Pro using Tapatalk

This is by far THE most fun I’ve had building a blaster. The print is incredible and it paints up beautifully. I added an aluminium holster bracket. I’m definitely going to invest in the F-11D and I think I might do another one of these. Thanks again Wilson! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Almost there Trooper!!!

Drop box alignment is what stand out to me. Shift the drop box elastic outward until the outside of the boxes are aligned with the edge of the plastic belt, then pull them up until they basically touch the bottom of the plastic belt. Glue the elastic in place to the canvas belt and they will never shift out of place.

I cut all mine too back in 2017. We have learnt a LOT since then and have much better reference and intel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Looking sharp, Mario! One thing you will need to do is touch up the paint on those ear screws, brother. As per the CRL, they must be painted white. A quick fix that will take less than 5 minutes! Reference image CRL image

Here are some more up close pics of everything. Sent from my iPhone using The Force

Hola Mario! Sorry for the delay. Could you please post a close-up photo of your helmet hovi tips? I can see the rims are white, but I'm not sure if the interior is white as well. Reference photo: Thank you, my friend!

What I like the most about watching new Star Wars trailers: - it brings back the excitement of a child at Christmas - the Lucasfilm Ltd. logo appears and expectations rise - the music, the pictures and the sounds make you feel home - tears of joy - and finally goose bumps all over Sometimes a trailer can cause more fascination, than the whole movie itself. Let's hope it will be different with this (last?) episode...

Major plot spoilers: 1. We will all watch it. 2. Most of us will enjoy it and watch it again. 3. There will be a few parts some people may not like, and they will wingh about it forever 4. Star Wars will live on, and the Legion will keep going, 'cause it's just that cool.
