MaskedVengeance[Staff] Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 In keeping with my tradition of lightning fast L2 and L3 submissions after approval, today I have prepared for you @Deployment Officer Team my L2 EI application (with some L3 photos) for the newly-established Beach Trooper. I know I'm blazing the trails with this submission, but hopefully I meet all the requirements as noted in the new CRL. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out! I'm always eager for feedback to improve my kits! UPDATE: I appear to be having some issues with my Photobucket account. If anybody has any tips on how I can remove the watermarks and regain access to my original images it would be much appreciated! Thanks! (@Sly11 and @gmrhodes13 I know you guys have worked on this during your forum cleanup project) Name: Caleb 501st Unit: Venator Squad, Georgia Garrison Helmet: ATA Works Swimsuit: Official CRL bottoms E-11 Blaster: Hellhounds Props (rubber) circa 2019 Height: 6' 0" (183 cms) Weight: 192 lbs (87 kilos) at time of photos. CRL: Beach Trooper Shout out to @TheRascalKing, TK-97253, TK-42077, TK-82077, TK-62345, Casey Kwock, @Morgi, @revlimiter, among many others, for whom I'm forever grateful. Full Body ** * I had some image rotation issues on this one. Sorry didn't have time for a real fix. Action Shot (for the EI Gallery) @gmrhodes13 Suit Details Note: It's unclear if the color of the suit is Humbrol 14 French Blue. It appears to be more of a cross between French and Mediterranean Blue. Definitely not Midnight Blue. Helmet Details Blaster Details Optional Accessories Proposal I know that CRL has only just been developed, but I thought I might take this opportunity to propose an amendment to the optional items currently approvable for this Beach Trooper. I know that screen references are a bit slim, but in the interest accessorizing this minimalistic trooper, I propose the addition of the optional items listed below. Note that I've preemptively modeled the implementation of these accessories for consideration by the appropriate authorities. OT-style thermal detonator (TD) OT-style pauldron (specific color open for discussion) Imperial binders (with belt-clip) * Once again, apologies for the image rotation issues below * * Action Photo (image rotation issue again) Please let me know if any of you have any feedback on any adjustments that the DOs may require for IE, or even Centurion. I figure I might as well shoot straight for the top and aim to be the first L3 Beach Trooper! If only I could look as good as @justjoseph63 at his beach shoot*. If anybody knows a caricature artist local to me or in the Atlanta area, please put me in touch! * * And that's all for now! If all goes well I hope to submit for Centurion very soon, and who knows, maybe I can finally get my first trading card and show off my dad bod.

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 The D.O.s may ask you to rotate the pauldron back a bit. Just wondering where you are going to holster your E-11. On second thought.... nevermind. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering where you are going to holster your E-11. On second thought.... nevermind. Excellent observation, Joseph! Thanks for catching that! If/once the pauldron gets approved as an accessory I'll definitely need to pay more attention to the alignment. As for the blaster, it's true that this suit doesn't feature much in the way of real estate for tucking in blasters or anything. I figure maybe ESB holster loops would do the trick. Definitely not concealed carry. @revlimiter Do you have any other suggestions or techniques for blaster accommodation? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure if you wanted me to suit up or not for the supplemental photo, so I took a photo both ways. 2 hours ago, revlimiter said: Wow, like lightning here Caleb!

I was bummed to miss out on the opportunity to be the CRL model, but I'm good with the first to EI (hopefully) kudos. It was nice to not have my thigh ammo pack alignment slowing down approval this time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MintImperial[TK] Posted April 1, 2023 Report Share Posted April 1, 2023 Not a question about canon but more a practical one for trooping: Have you considered an Aker amp and where it might be stowed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, James! And about a topic I admittedly hadn’t thought about for trooping. Currently I would normally mount an Aker amp behind my chest-piece, but obviously that’s not an option with this costume. Thus I’d either need to convert to all internal electronics in my bucket or go up in size on the swim bottoms… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(@Sly11 and @gmrhodes13 I know you guys have worked on this during your forum cleanup project) In the beginning there was an option to save all of your phots but that was taken away at some stage, there are several different ways to access your unwatermarked images, you can have a read through this thread, depending on age will depend on which way works, its spread over a few different pages, sorry I don't have time to search busy con weekend here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can really recommend the shirt variant, it's easy to craft and comfy to wear, especially if you don't like showing others your chest Edited April 4, 2023 by Morgi April Fools Clarification 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I'm gonna need to see some additional canon reference material to support those accessories, and those Parks binders can get the heck out! haha 17 hours ago, MaskedVengeance said: And that's all for now!
