  1. More info from my discussions with the LMO's the black series figure is to be used at an absolute minimum, and in fact they did come back to me and state for the boots only. So to me this is standard FO TK boots in red, no plates. It is also assumed that all TK's have Thermal detonators so you should certainly make sure you have one. The cape is actually the only contentious issue now I have put all the info back together. You mentioned something about a reference book? do you have an image showing the cape with the trim? If so it could be on the table for sure. Also don't forget if in the future anything new comes to light or they make him a live action character, then the CRL would be 100% updated to reflect what is seen on screen. You could then revamp your costume if you so desired to remain the CRL model as if you are the first to complete the costume, you will be the one at the top of the CRL Summary Armour: TFA includes correct parts like forearms etc etc specially for Centurion level. Would be great to have a Centurion spec model for the CRL Helmet: TFA Boots: red no plating. Thermal Det: TFA version. Neck Seal: no issue centurion it just needs to be 11 ribs and shiny so Teresa's is perfect. Gaskets: Fabric at basic and EI, rubber at centurion Cape: post any additional image references you have so I can supply the LMO team for further discussion and review. I spoke with them today and they have requested this. EI and Centurion: all Standard TFA should come across easily to Cardinal perhaps with some additional items in the future. We only know what we know now. I think you are lucky with this one as the CRL is pretty much written aside the colour upgrades, Cape, weapon colour etc, Use the TFA CRL and once you are close to completion we shall discuss the photos we need etc. LMO sign off at the end and happy days we get another CRL at long last.
  2. Thanks Glen. Also the rubber gaskets are available through Thorsson and associates Workshop. This guy does some amazing props and costumes and he also does the rubber gaskets. I inquired a while a go but he usually take around 4 weeks with his workload to get them cast up then he ships them out. Pricing looked reasonable too back then but you will need to check You can message him through his FB page and he will give you price and time frame, but I believe some of our members have used him. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100061258101660
  3. TFA era so TFA helmet was the last discussion I had with the LMO's, that was a little while ago now though. Pretty sure it was standard TFA kit, boots and the addition of the cape, but I cant recall the cape specific details. I will need to refer back to those communications which I shall do after work today. I'll also get those details for rubber gaskets.
  4. Neck seal will be fine as all have been in the past, rubber gasket is definite for centurion as they don't have the stitch lines between each rib, it is our most accurate level after all. I have another vendor who makes the rubber gaskets, I'll just need to dig up his info for you. Always use screen references and check out the gallery images we have. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/gallery/category/27-tfa-tk-reference/ I'm pretty sure the boots had the LMO team hamstrung for a while as there are no visual references, so the black series figure has red and that's the direction they went. If its not specifically described in the book then that figure is sadly the only other reference you really can use.
  5. Cardinal will definitely have many of the same Centurion elements that the standard TFA TK does, considering it is from the same time frame. I actually made a post on this just the other day in the Anovos Denuo Novo FOTK delivery possibilities thread, I'll just place what I wrote here as well. from the other thread.... Currently Rubber gaskets are only required for Centurion, and we aren't inclined to change that. Latex look for EI would be no issue at all. There are a couple of rubber gasket makers around still which may ramp up a little if demand increases now DN are shipping out kits a plenty. Cardinal is based around the TFA era so armour construction would be the same. I can't see a reason why the initial Cardinal CRL can't have Centurion elements considering it is close to the standard FOTK, so anything that aligns at that level really should be included The following are TFA TK Centurion requirements, of which all would meet Cardinal for centurion in details as the novel state,s he was issued his armour by Brendol Hux, it wasn't custom made like Phasma so a standard issue armour although in the red colour makes the most sense. The cape due to lack of real reference would not have enough to require anything above basic. Conflicting references don't help matters at all as some have silver trim and the Book image doesn't.

  6. Attention to detail +
  7. Congratulations on EI number 2 Adam, well done.
  8. Congratulations on your Centurion rank Christine!
  9. Fantastic news Jonah, looking forward to your build thread.

  11. Congratulations Russ, you look magic sir.
  12. That is a neat idea, I like it.
  13. Great idea Adam, looks awesome too.
  14. Hi mark Everything on the FISD forum end seems fine. Your affiliation does lapse if you do not log into the forums at least once a year. The only thing your affiliation actually effects is the ability to vote in the detachments election. As we are on the legion server shared service, our data base automatically gets updated before elections every year and your affiliation becomes reconnected provided you do log in. You last logged in in 2018 until today.
  15. This will be the 4th set of armour auctioned off as 501st members cash in on their screen time in the TV series. At least the fourth I am aware of, could be another. If Disney don't care then why should legion right. It's not a good look in my books, but each to their own. Generally if you can be bothered doing some sleuthing, it's not too hard to figure out who it is putting it up for auction. That's how we worked out who sold the first couple lol. Wonder how much this one will garner, I do find it interesting to see what the perceived value is to a collector on any given day/auction.
  16. Thank you Jonatan for offering assistance to our members, I think this might go well, so I am going to pin your post so it is easy for everyone to find.
  17. Blaster is coming along very nicely, keep up the great work.
  18. Wow Adam, you look awesome!
  19. Welcome to FISD Brad Looks like you have had an interesting life, and it's about to get a whole lot better again! This is a wonderful, fun hobby and I am positive you will fit right in here.
  20. Congratulations Jonatan, welcome to Centurion
  21. If you need me to remove images you have posted directly as opposed to using IMGUR or any other 3rd party share service, just let me know and I can remove them from the back end.
  22. Try either option, I use direct link sometimes and others I use the one for forums towards the bottom. The direct link doesn't work for me on my Garrison forums so i have no choice.
  23. Congratulations and welcome to Expert Infantry rank Jonatan
  24. Wow starting to look like the real deal, I love that little sanding tool you purchased, must look for one myself as getting into those small areas is quite a painstaking task.
