    The oldest posts in that section are from 2007 so it's been around a while.  I believe the permissions were updated recently so that non-501st members can see it exists but can't see what's inside.  

     

    Chris is on the money :)  It's always existed, as long as I'm aware.

     

    It exists to sell patches, coins, and other 501st-only merchandise that the club does for members.  The prop stuff sticks to the normal subforum that everyone has access to for the most part :)

  2. Going to make a few suggestions as these are transcribed.

     

    I think we should follow the MEPD style for weathering:  

    Quote

    All Sandtrooper armor parts are weathered.

     

    at the top of each item.  Then in the future link to a specific weathering page with details.  We can reuse that style with the TKC and the HWT in the future, since all use similar weathering styles.

     

    I also am going to make a specific call out on the helmet to match references with the helmet weathering.

     

     

    Further...

    OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):

    • Ears shall have three screws per side, one above and one below the ear bar and one at the base of the helmet.
    • Ear bars have four bumps only, not three.
    • Traps/tears and tube stripes shall have the correct ANH TK details
    • Correct 'Hovi mic' aerator tips.

     

    OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):

    • Ear bars shall have only one or two bumps painted in black (rank stripes).
    • Neck trim shall be of an s-type profile rather than a u-type profile.
    • Tears/traps shall be hand painted or use decals that emulate hand painted (with correct ANH TK details).
    • Ear screws shall be slotted, flat topped, countersunk and painted white.

     

     

    Secondly a lot of the ANH-specific or movie-specific details are going away.  It's a video game and doesn't have U or S profile trim on the helmet... I know we replicate this currently for things like the HWT and the TKC, but we should omit these kinds of details as they're not sourced (just copied).

     

     

    Okay last and most important question... Is the lightsaber staying? ;)  It's a player skin that's unlocked when used with a lightsaber

    Sounds good! If we need to trim down and reattach the cover strip, we can.
    If this costume is good for approval, make sure the GMLs give it to Holley Barker and not me, as she is the one wearing the kit. I'll PM you with her email address and 501NEG screen name.
     

     

     

    Hey Mike, working through the CRL chanegs/draft and trimming down the pics!  Do you have a reference photo showing the thigh on that side?  I looked in the video and couldn't see a clear enough shot to see if the cover strip is visible at all and if so where it ends.  

     

    I'd rather we not blindly mimic the ANH one here.  Any chance you have a reference shot that can determine if it needs to be shortened down?
