Parquette[TK] Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Daetrin, did you see my previous post? I only ask because I'm wrapping up my build and my strips are like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I want to use it for the CRL Photos if possible, it's basically the exact same thing most of the suit actors held in their hands during production. Only a few of the props meant for close ups were based on an actual airsoft gun. I am building an R1 E-11 blaster with all real parts, it will be VERY HEAVY! That's what we were going for. That's why we chose the name Praetorian ( we chose it before we found out that Snoke's guards are also Praetorian Guards :oops) Maybe ukswrath can snap a few pics. I don't have one built at home.

SlyFox740[TK] Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) I have some suggestions to put forward for the Under Suit. Under Suit L1 - Black non-textured material, either one-piece or two-piece construction with no visible zippers or logos/designs. L2 - Black rib-knit fabric, either one-piece or two-piece construction with no visible zippers or logos/designs. - At minimum there is rib-knit fabric present in all exposed areas between armor pieces. L3 - Stitching shall be present between the ribs on the rib-knit fabric. Edited October 12, 2017 by SlyFox740 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parquette[TK] Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Also, I made this TK riot baton based off of the limited reference we have of the screen used baton in the prison/Imperial Labor Camp transport scenes. Would this be useful for the optional weapons accesory's section? Here are the images it's based off of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like there is a black sleeve behind the baton that the belt loops through. Part of me wants to go the route of attaching a snap to the black sleeve and the baton itself.

No, I think the beveled edges will stay - they are very unique to this costume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parquette[TK] Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) It was also very unique to the Deathtrooper and Shoretrooper, but the first wave of approved troops had flat edge strips. In fact the early Jimmoroqui costumes had these if memory serves me. Edited October 13, 2017 by Par_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tactical light is not from Preatorian These are great, but someone will need to photoshop out the backgrounds still. Actually we really only need one the first two shots, but they have to have nothing in the background. I'm not sure how the PI team did it so perfect out the gate - may want to PM Kit?

darthcue[TK] Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 would it be possible that the holster is what gave the baton squarish in shape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the scene where the prisoner transport door explodes, you can see the baton dangle side to side with a stationary rectangular shape behind it.

Hey Paul how do these look? I can clean them up more in Photoshop if need be. Also I can combine them into one image. There's also this detailed shot of all the different components if you think it can be used. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a typo that prevented you seeing the L2/L3. Henry - those first two I can use. Ideally the shadow on the top one will not be there if you have time. If you can get pix of the holster & baton in the same shape (photoshopped) as the blaster, I'll get that in now. Also - there were a few sections of the CRL where the L2/L3 areas were hidden. I fixed those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Henry - if you are going to photoshop the shadow on the blaster, can you please combine the 2 in to one image? Then I can simply upload it direct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
