This came up in the GML section of the legion forum I have noticed and a member who has made this costume have pointed out the CRL model seems to have the Biceps opposite and back to front compared to the live action version. May need a model image update, a simple fix

Ha, thanks Glen. Today we finally get to the armor. Not sure how it is going to look like, just playing with a few ideas. To build some tension, I will start at the bottom and work my way upwards… Inspired by the Magma Trooper: Inspired by Captain Rex: Inspired by Sergeant Kreel: That wire will end either in the hole of the TK back plate, or in a back pack. We’ll see… Enjoy your weekend.

I'm moving on to the belt. I did cleanup on the edges with some trims and then used a little bit of Fray Check along the top and back edges. I let it dry and then did final thread trims. I think this looks way better. I'm preparing to do the cuts on the 45 degree edges. I drew in lines with pencil where the fabric belt intersects with the ABS belt piece. Then also measured the width from top, middle, and bottom of the line to be sure the width of the section being cut off is even. I wanted to see if these lines look Centurion good before I do my cuts.

Very nice, on my Santa wish list

Hello there! Big thanks to everyone who made this CRL happen, it has been a long journey to this point. As to get into the discussion over the red rim I want to get back more than a year where I already brought this up. Due to more things I've overseen that this hasn't been changed in the CRL reading, sorry for that! I should have checked that again, I just got lost in all the many little details of that costume. If this gets to the LMO's could you please add the photographer as well? This has been TK-14469. I hope to see a lot of enoch to come, and if you do so always feel free to ask any questions you have, I'm glad if I can help! Imperial greedings, Alex / TK-22504

Hello Freddy and welcome to the forum! Have a look at this thread, and scroll down to the Rogue One section!

And in the event they took too big or have a big gap between them and your legs you can add a return edge.

Andrew, First, SUPER stoked to know that you are aiming for Centurion! We are gonna' get you there, brother.... You can trim the tops down as much as you like to make them fit correctly, and as long as you follow the general line of the shape of the top you will be fine for all levels. It looks as if you have put the green tape to hold them in place get the approximate size to fit the top of your thighs, but be aware that once you remove those return edges they will be way too loose. Once you get rid of those pesky return edges , you should trim down the sides as shown below to keep the sides at more of a a vertical angle. A general rule of thumb is that you should be able to fit 4 fingers (or so) in between your thigh pieces and legs. Any less and they can chafe, any more and they may hold you back from Level 3. Keep those photos and questions rolling in, Andrew!
