Hello @all many thanks for that really detailed Feedback, it really makes it easy to improve my costume. I'm very happy that i got EI approved and i'm very excited to make the needed changes for Centurion approvement. A few years ago i never would have thought that i would run around in an armor (plastic) costume, but i really fell in love with the FOTK. The FISD community with all the detailed WIP Threads was so helpfull and inspirational for us (at this point of course many thanks again @ukswrath, we literally learned your building Thread by heart). It was a lot of fun to build it. I'm already at making changes regarding the forarms (i think i will 3D Print a TLJ/TROS Version). What makes me speechless and very proud, that i can also be part of the #1000. Thanks for all the kind words and congratulations to the FISD to hit the #1000 <3 With kind regards - and everyone stay healthy!

@TKSpartan & @shashachu problems which i had last night with IMGUR are gone, i reuploaded all pictures again - i think it should be right now ^^; Did the same for Dani too Thanks for the Feedback!

Hey Mario, thanks for the fast feedback. I've changed the resolution of all pictures (i had problems with IMGUR, so it was the first time using postimage, sorry for that!). I will change the resolution for Dani's Pictures as well.

In January we submitted our armors for basic approval and passed it. We then decided to update the few parts that we hadn't initially built to the Level 2 and Level 3 standards and are now appliying for the next levels of approvement. Since we built the armors together almost every mechanism, closure method and solution to strapping problems is the same - there are small individual differences but nothing major. We took our new approvement photos before a green screen in our living room with a set up to lights over a couple of days so lighting and background should be consistent in all three of our applications. Thank you very much for your time!

@Cricket The TD is also not really continuously the same in TLJ - here is a example from the movie, with the "short cap" (maybe it is because some trooperes were CGI? idk) I like what the 3D Designer did with the cod

regarding the cod - The ridges are there - recently these pictures were posted in an Facebook group:

Very great build, can’t wait to see more progress - can I ask which TLJ Cod file you used? Or have you more screenshots of it? thank you!

Asking for access, TK-51337, German Garrison https://www.501st.com/members/displaymember.php?userID=20276&costumeID=408 Thanks!

what do you mean with both sizes? But yes, they are two different patterns for of course two different bags, the smaller wide one and the taller more narrow one.

There is a raffle going on the UK, which says the winner will get a screen used Episode IX Trooper Helmet: Some User on reddit made a great comparison between the episodes: So there are some minor differences (can also be the camera angle) between the Episode 8 and 9 Helmet, but over all it seems they keept the Episode 8 Design

Hey Jonas, had you time to finish this awesome bulild? I'm really intersted in more details, like components you used, or wiring diagram Thank you!

Hallo everyone I hope it is okay to post this question here. I‘m from Germany and not yet a Member of the FISD (FOTK in progress, will post soon a Thread here :)) I/We have a question, maybe you can help me here, or point in the right direction where I can ask the right person.  We want create I Fire Team with only FOTK/FOArmor to create a more steady group of FOTK‘s in Germany. The question we have is regarding the naming of the group. Would it be okay to use „Batch Eight“ here?  „Batch Eight“ was mentioned in the elevator scene which was cutted in Ep8. So it is not in the movie directly or as far as I know in books or anything else. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Batch_Eight Thank you for your time! With kind regards Shimo/Sebastian DS/DZ/ID 51337
