    DarthFunk83 got a reaction from Prida in Favourite Officer photos   
    This is most likely mine. Thrawn leading the march of the stormtroopers through the convention. It was an official Edmonton Expo photo, which is why I didnt share it on the official IOC FB/Twitter page

    DarthFunk83 got a reaction from Cosmic in Dress Uniform?   
    See, I thought they were part of the Stormtrooper Corp., which is why I thought, if they had any dress uniform, it would be the Staff officer (which is the Stormtrooper branch). 
     
    Ultimately, it doesnt really matter. I always encourage my hard armored Garrison mates to get an officer (any officer) so they can kit down into something more comfortable. I say, whichever officer you like, build/wear that.

    Hello Enrique,
     
    I've now reviewed your submission for an Executor promotion for your Staff Officer.
     
    Overall, I think you have a great looking uniform. You definitely own the part. However, before we can proceed with this submission, you will first need to request IOC Member status here:
    Also, I will be needing individual pictures for each of the pieces. These pieces will need to be out of their wrapping/container and clearly show the necessary requirements. I would encourage you to take a look at some previously cleared submissions to get an idea of how to organize your post. See here:
    http://www.imperialofficer.com/forum/index.php?/forum/104-cleared-executors/
     
    After you've received your IOC Member status and uploaded new photos of your pieces, I will take a look at this submission again. If you have any questions or concerns, please ask me. Good luck!!
     
    Cheers,

    Hello Dana,
     
    I have now reviewed your submission for an Executor promotion for your Grand Moff Tarkin uniform.
     
    Overall, you have a great looking uniform, and the make up for Tarkin is absolutely on-point. Great work!! However, before I can clear you for your promotion, Id like to request the following:
    While your overall uniform is great, Id highly recommend ironing/steaming the uniform, as there are too many wrinkles in it for promotion. Also, there appears to be a lot of bunching happening at the top of your boots. If you havent already, Id recommend adding stirrups to your jodhpurs to prevent that. Lastly, the flares are a bit baggy/floppy. Id recommend stiffening the flares a bit with either starch or interfacing to make them stand a bit better. If you've done all this, Id request new full body pics, head to toe, front, back, and side pictures be taken In addition to the modifications outlined above, could you please provide a picture of the modesty panel with 2 eye hooks  Please provide a front and back pictures of your tunic showing that there is a circumference seam  Please provide a picture of your boots showing that there is no zippper If the above mentioned modifications/pictures can be provide, I think this will be an easy clearance. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask me. Good luck!!

    To add to Kris' comment, Imperial Boots is perfectly approvable, but for the price you pay (unless you really need a zipper), you might as well go for a good L3 boot from Hessen Antique.

    But also, there is some really cool art for this book

    DarthFunk83 got a reaction from Duchessina in Was the empire really evil ?   
    I don't necessarily agree. The way I read that crawl, that could be propaganda from Rebels. It's like real life, one man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist. 
     
    I also know the EU very well, and there's a theory out there that Palpatine made the Imperial war machine to combat the Yuuzhan Vong. Has the Empire done evil things? Yes. It could be argued that the Rebels did too.

    Hello Kalei,
     
    I have now reviewed your submission for an Executor promotion for your R1 ISB Officer.
     
    Overall, I think you have a great looking uniform. I’ve always liked the look of the ISB officers. However, before I can promote you to Executor, there are some things that would need to be improved upon:
     
    The image of the front of your tunic does not work. Could you please repost the image so I can see the front of the tunic, most importantly, the circumference seam Could you please provide a top down image of your belt buckle showing that there is a slight horizontal curve to it There is one improvement I’d like to request for your Executor promotion. Your jodhpurs do not have stirrups attached. I’d highly recommend putting those on to prevent the bunching of the pants at the top of the boots. This will result in a much crisper and sharper look that we expect all of our Executor and Imperator officers to achieve Unfortunately, looking at your boots, we feel that they don’t quite fit right. There appears to be significant bunching on the boots (see below) that should not be there. This may require the boots to be replaced or modified to fit better.  
     
    The one last thing I’ll mention, which is a weird thing with the current CRL, is that the code disk on your hat has a notch. The Executor requirements clearly state that there should be a notch. However, the Imperator (L3) requirement states “Code disk exactly matches screen-used prop.” If you read right under the Rogue One specific requirements, it mentions that the code disk on the hat should not have a notch. This would be required for an Imperator application, if you chose to pursue this route.
     
    I think if these pics and improvements can be made, we can definitely clear this promotion. If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to ask me. Good luck!!

    Cheers,

    Hello Kalei,
     
    I am currently on vacation, so it will take me some time to get around to looking at this submission. In the meantime, it would be most helpeful if you could post the pictures in the first post instead of linking to a Google drive link. I use an image hosting site called Imgur. To post a picture, you can then click Insert other media in the lower right corner, then click Insert image from URL. If you then copy the Image address from Imgur and paste it there, you can then post the images.
     
    Thanks,
