These are pictures where I didn't have any help so there's likely still issues in these photos. I do know that I'll be able to tighten the pack more if I get help, so if it's still too big of a gap in these photos I think it'll be easily fixed. I believe I have the belt aligned better, it's fairly straight in the back too, but in the photo I wasn't standing up completely straight so it might not appear that way at first glance (another thing that can be fixed next time with help). I fixed the calves too, luckily I was able to take the cover strips off and put them on the correct side with little to no paint damage. Nice work Alice, it's all about the details I found in the past having a full length mirror really handy for checking fitment, your photographer doesn't always know what to look out for. In most of my TK armors I don't have full mobility, as long as you comfortably walk and move you should be good to go. One thing which your GWL will love you for would be taking your photos inside with a contrasting backdrop, makes editing your photos for the legion database so much easier. Lighting outdoors can distort and add shadows to photos. We have a thread about taking photos here 1 Quote

We have a thread about taking photos here Yeah getting a good contrasting background has been a challenge for me just because most of my house is either too small for good pictures or has a very busy background, and all non busy places outside are a bunch of white walls. I'm going to be getting a green screen to help with that though, especially because once I get it I can do it inside and not rely on it being another sunny day (which has been rare lately where I live lol) 1 Quote
Droidagem[TK] Posted June 11, 2025 Author Report Posted June 11, 2025 I decided to send my new pictures over to my GML and I've been approved as TK-75311! 3 3 Quote
Droidagem[TK] Posted June 11, 2025 Author Report Posted June 11, 2025 (edited) I'm now going to focus on building the mortar in my spare time, although it might take me a while since I'll need to make 3D files to modify the screen used bipod brand to add these highlighted parts to it, as the Oxprops files don't cover the bipod, but they do point you in the direction of the bipod they modified for the show. I am also going to focus on my next costume I want to get approved in the legion (likely a range trooper or mimban trooper), so that might also add onto the time I'll take to make the mortar admittedly. Once I eventually make these files I'll be sure to share them and document my build on the mortar! Edited June 11, 2025 by Droidagem 2 Quote

You wouldn't be the first to have multiple projects sitting around in various stages of work in progress, happens to us all. 1 Quote

MaskedVengeance[Staff] Posted June 12, 2025 Report Posted June 12, 2025 Congrats on your approval, Alice! An excellent build to be sure! I'll admit that I'm a little jealous of any trooper that can appropriately carry multiple thermal detonators as part of their kit. (I'm a little obsessed with them). Can't wait to see your mortar tube build! 1 Quote
