Will's FOTK Build WIP (Long Build) TFA


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

 

i've started my build on the UK Garrison site, and am posting it here as well.

the Armourer taking me through this build (UKG) is Dave Forsey.

 

so i will post / attach as i go along

 

Right
After putting it off for ages. I've decided to do a FOTK
It's going to be a long process as the main kit is coming from ANOVOS (shipping this spring) so fingers crossed 
I've been chatting with a few guys and got some basic advice, but like all good builds I'd thought I'd ask the experts.
First off I have a pair of Imperial Boots.

And gloves from Endor Finders.
I'm also looking at the F11 & SE44 from Diversity 3D 
And looking at upgrading the holster from a guy here at FISD 

I'll post picks as things progress, but this is going to take time, so any bits I can get along the way will help (going for level 3 clearance) 
I know the devils in the detail 
Thanks 
Will

Hi Will
Great to see another FO TK hit the ranks and given your experience and attention to detail I am sure this is going to be a fantastic addition to the club.
Imperial boots are of a very good standard and meet the standards required for the costume in accordance with the CRL.
Gloves
Are black with white palm, thumb and forefinger.
Extend underneath the forearm.
White area is made from leather or leather-like material.
Handplates are rigid square boxes and the hand plates are mounted securely over the back of the glove.
The black oval detail is aligned with the index finger of each hand. 
For level three certification (if applicable):
Glove inner palm must have black stitching

The imperial gloves are the G7’s 
Endor Gloves are TFA variant
Boots
ANH/ESB TK boots are allowed.
If other boots are used:
The boots are above ankle height and made of white leather or leather-like material.
There is a seam down both sides of the front that swoops out to the side of the foot.
There is a vertical zipper on the inside that spans the height of the boot.
There is a black flat sole with no heel.
No buckles or laces. 
Now I know the CRL states ANH/ESB boots are allowed but I think it is preferable to upgrade as suggested. The imperial T7 boots fit the bill in both design and height
I will need clear photos of the completed blasters to comment further but looking forward to working with you matey.

Hi Dave 
Quick update: 
F11 & SE44 ordered, hopefully be here in 5-6 weeks (fully finished) 
Also have a new undersuit with the 'shorts area' nice and shiny (I believe you've seen the video) 
It's a good fit with no baggy areas, the shorts section is stitched in.

Like I said, I'm planning on going for level 3 
Thanks 

Will.

The CRL is less than specific at basic clearance level Black with horizontal ribs, fitted to the wearer, and extending from the base of the neck to conceal the entire neck. 
This is descriptive for both OT TK and FOTK.
However, First Order level 3 states the neck seal should have 11 ribs. Personally I would go with the 11 ribs and source a recognised producer to have it made to fit.
