    Few pictures of my Cardinal's debut at Dallas Fan Expo. I am currently using regular FOTK boots because I haven't gotten the Phasma armor yet. But got nothing but compliments and lots of people asking if and when it'll be a CRL. Had to explain the boot drama....

    It's... not an issue at all? He's got a black brow like every other FOTK.

     

     

     

    Google the cover, uploading photo's is iffy for me here. There is no black trim. 

    But ya boots..... Boots boots boots. If only we had a picture of the boots. For just a cost saving measure I'm not going to worry about the boots for now. When I finally get the Phasma Boot armor and it goes on, you'll hardly see the boots underneath.

    So got my armor, few minor adjustments left. Painter put a black brow on the helmet, not a major issue.

    Still need to finish the cloak and get the boot armor. KB Props is taking forever, ordered it 7 weeks ago and have got nothing yet and I've asked for updates twice now. Is someone currently working on trying to make this a CRL since we do have one completed costume so far?

    Or are there more then just Hal here that's finished it?

    Man that looks amazing, great job! Now submit it for a CRL! (Still not sure if we can get an official one without an official depiction of the boots, but we can try right?)

    I'd still say his rifle/pistol would be red trimmed, just looks better. But given it's an optimal accessory I don't think it'd be a big deal either way.

    Hoping I'll have my kit and have it finished by end of January, but as of right now the only thing in my possession are the gloves. 

    Is there an poll or something we can take over the boots? The boots seem to be the only area of confusion as there's no official image of them. But from what I am reading here (And is here "the" opinion for Cardinal so far?) we are favoring Phasma style armored boots over standard FO TK Boots?

    I hope so! Captain Cardinal really struck a chord with me and I would love for him to be an approved armor. 

    Just get it done, and if he can't approved just show up to a troop anyway and just say you have no idea why your armor is red.

    But you're going with a standard Episode 7 FOTK right? That is my plan. Think it might be best if we're all on the same page.

    Bah I just posted about this, I am also considering doing Cardinal. Everything points to him being basically just a red stormtrooper with a captain's cloak. And the cloak trim looks a bit more maroon then red. 

    I talked to my GML and he basically said there wasn't enough info. But honestly the only thing you cannot see are his boots. But everything else points to him being a standard FO TK, just red. I am considering getting FO TK armor and just going red, and get the cloak. If it gets approved cool, if not it's still an awesome looking costume. 

    Hopefully there will be a comic or action figure or movie flashback or something more of him. He doesn't die in the book (SPOILERS) so it's possible we'll see more of him.

    So looking at Captain Cardinal (From the Phasma Novel) and there is no CRL for him. And looking at the requirements for a new CRL there doesn't seem to be quiet enough.

     

    • The costume must work within the constraints of human anatomy. Costumes that can only be accurately rendered as puppets (IG-88, Battle Droids) are considered props and as such not allowed.
    • Video game characters must be part of the official storyline of the game, and cannot be player customized. For example, Starkiller's Sith Stalker costume is acceptable, but a player character from Star Wars Galaxies would not be.
    • The character must be represented visually by an officially authorized Star Wars publication. Full body front/back/side reference must be available. Costumes based only on text descriptions cannot be approved.
    • An action figure may be used as supplemental reference, but cannot not be the only reference for the character

     

    Only official depictions of him are the Phasma Novel cover and the bonus poster for the Barnes and Noble version of the novel. He's basically just a red FO TK. The novel itself just describes him as a red armored storm trooper with a captain's cloak. The novel cover makes the trim on his cloak look a more maroon then the red of Phasma's.

    So what else would be needed to try and get him a CRL and is anyone aware of any more official depictions of him other than the two pictures below?
