Please feel free to offer suggestions.

 

My beef as a GML is when the photos and text don't match. Drives me and my team nuts.

 

Do we have photos for the various costume components yet? If not I wouldn't mind helping in the photoshoppery. If we do have some, could they be posted? I'd love to proofread each section and match the text up with each armor piece.

[Sly11[Admin]]

All photos are already done and in the CRL, CRL is complete just refining stage now.

All parts are present left and right, considering there are some differences.

Frank wrote the text based off his images, I believe.

[Sly11[Admin]]

Example, but not to forget, we can have additional images and close-ups in the gallery as part of the CRL.

I confirm,

 

i wrote the text based of course on the reference pictures, but I checked that all costume parts pictures I took are matching exactly the text I submitted.

I could easily provide additional pictures if needed for clarity.

@Sly11 Ok so I've done a pass now, and I have a few colors to help out with the feedback!

• Observations
• Misspellings
• Suggestions

 

1. Check usage of capital "S" and lowercase "s" in "Flight suit"

 

2. Four distinct sections, but only three dots - could be good to have four dots even if Left winglet/Right winglet can be combined

 

3. Check the wording of "jetpack" or "jet pack" and decide which one to use

 

4. Misspelled "Bacplate" and check wording of "backplate" or "back plate" and decide which one to use

 

5. Question: what is a "belt proper", "Coton" misspelled, "section" should be "sections", "visibaly" misspelled, two spaces in sentence, "chamfer" should be "chamfers"

 

6. "*he" misspelling

 

7. "Hanplates" misspelled, check the wording of "flightsuit" or "flight suit" and decide which one to use, check the wording of "hand plates" or "handplates", "three facets." text after a completed sentence should be removed, "symetrical" misspelled, "Hand Plates" with capital P, question: should "glove back." be "the back of the glove."?

These corrections have now been made.

Some were already corrected when I was constructing the Wiki template, others now done.

Thanks for you input

 Will be sending this off to the LMO team for further input and the suggestion that the new statements Chris is working on can be added at the top of the CRL regarding materials and 3D printed armor.

I would much prefer it stated once, than in every single section of the CRL for each armor piece.

[Sly11[Admin]]

UPDATE:

CRL is in the hands of the LMO team and i am waiting on any final feedback for adjustments.

 

Stay tuned as this should be green lit in the very near future.

Looking over the CRL I noticed these weren't added

 

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned, came up in one of the build groups, sewn lines on the long sleeves are only on the outside. 

FLIGHT SUIT

OPTIONAL L2

Long sleeves do not have horizontal quilted ribs on the inside of the arm between the short sleeves and the gauntlets 

 

 

 

 

 

Blaster

OPTIONAL L2

Handle should have a molded/curved appearance (same as SE-14R)

 

 

[Sly11[Admin]]

Blaster pistol will get changed once we have an accurate model and image for the CRL, for the mean time there won't be a lvl 2 for them.

The lights are also being removed from the blasters, as I don't believe they have those. This was an oversight from the original CRL draft.

 

Sleeves are fixed

[Chemi[Staff]]

This was not added either (boots):

 

 

OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):

 

There are 3 stitched lines that run across the instep.

The instep is made of thick material with the 3 stiched lines creating raised sections.

Standard FOTK boots are not acceptable.

Easy, I shall get it updated tonight.

[Sithtrooper02[TK]]

On the Chest plate, the red light is missing, from the draft :

 

OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):

• The red light is functional under the ranking box

[Sly11[Admin]]

Red light is added but under Lvl 3 as all lights are.

Keeping this the same as with blasters for continuity across CRL's

[Sithtrooper02[TK]]

Here is a proposal for the baton and riot shield accessories CRL:
 

Baton

·       The baton has a metallic color main rectangular body which terminates with a circular shape.

·       A handle is attached at 90 degree to the main rectangular body. The handle is metallic color and has multiple black ribs

·       4 black raised black grips are present on the main rectangular body towards the electrodes

·       The electrode portion comprises 3 shaped sections linked to a central cylinder by two links and are 120 degrees apart

·       Each shaped section is black in color, has 3 facets and multiple raised metallic color bands and dots

 

OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):

·       There is a push button above the handle on the main body to switch on/off the electrodes

·       The electrodes have working lights emitting on the internal sides

·       The riot shield and baton must both be present. The jetpack must not be worn when baton and shield are present

 

Riot shield

·       The shield has a metallic color and is rectangular in shape, with a beveled edge all the way around

·       The four corners of the shield are raised and are black color

·       There is a triangular lens near the top of the shield that is clear with black seal all around

·       There are four pointed greeblies, one at each corner of the flat area of the outward facing side of the shield.

OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):

·       Riot shield and riot baton must both be present.

·       jetpack shall not be worn with riot baton/riot shield combination.

Below are the reference pictures along with pictures from the shield and baton realized:

At first read, it looks good.

Great work as always.

 

Potential for a couple of minor tweaks listed in green for clearer explanations.

 

• 4 black raised black grips are present on the main rectangular body towards the electrodes
• 4 black raised grips are present on the main rectangular body towards the electrodes.

 

• The electrode portion comprises 3 shaped sections linked to a central cylinder by two links and are 120 degrees apart
• There are 3 electrodes mounted to a central cylinder, each containing 2 mounts. The mount closest to the tip has an additional stabiliser leg.
• The electrodes are evenly spaced at 120 degrees around the central cylinder.

 

• The four corners of the shield are raised and are black color
• The four corners of the shield are raised and black in color.

Thanks Andrew for corrections and clarifications.

 

I wasn’t sure how much details I should put in the text and omitted several ones like the rear grip details on the baton

 

same for the handle and strap on the interior of the shield, etc…

 

I can certainly add them for additional clarity, as we have some good reference pictures to support.
NB The Hot toys has some errors vs the movie references. The design is based on the movie when there were discrepancies 

[Sly11[Admin]]

Yes, please do Francois
