Once  I get my Governor Pryce patch. I plan on finishing my Pryce coat. Just need to find a rank patch for her. Anyone know where I can get one? 
Jacket is in Grey as we Pryce girls call our selves the Grey Ladies. Working on a Grey Lady patch next. 

I use a standard bomber jacket, needs some updates though
 

 

@SNK:  The CRL Team is reviewing this proposal again. There's a good chance many of the proposals can be implemented, but we will confirm later.
 
Meanwhile, because Legion databases are still locked, post-election, and the new LMO teams can't even START working on the backlog until March 1 when the transition switch is flipped, it is likely to be at LEAST March 10 before anything can actually start moving on this, even if everyone here was in complete agreement. The Detachment staff does not currently have the power to make ANY changes, nor can the Legion staff review any of our proposals until they're back up and running.  So please be patient while the Legion-level people get their bearings.
 
Once the wheels are moving again, things can start happening.

You definitely can! 
 
I know several CRL models in the past year have, and others have been encouraged to do so. Just personal preference about whether you want to, I think.

I'm pointedly ignoring Things I Should Be Doing right now to try and make a new vest. 
Officer themed, as my other is mostly Kylo, and I barely wear him now. 

I've got a small handful of things picked out so far, but there's still a lot of space left. 

Show me yours!! 
I need inspiration!! 
(Also if you have patches and want to trade, I also have patches and want to trade)

Here's my officer detachment fan jacket for over 4.5 years of trooping.
 

 

Yep, I added some flowers to girly it up, that and I just like flowers so why not.
 
 

That's my version of an IOC Jacket:

 
Subtle but elegant   

I recently made a patch hoodie repping my squad, garrison, and detachments.

Going all five days as well and either at the attached Hyatt or the Marriott, which I don't remember the full names of in this exact moment. 
 
Costuming plans still unsure. 
Am planning to be wildly busy and panicked the entire time, however this seems to be par for the course.

Hey there!
I wanted to toss in another contender that I know several Thrawn/Alien costumers like to use. 

Alcohol activated face paint!

This can be either airbrushed or sponged on, depending on your skill level, and it's liquid, so colors can be mixed if the available color isn't satisfactory. I usually will add a teeny bit of dark blue to their lighter blue as a base, then tint it darker for the base shading before I contour with powder. 

It's honestly incredible how well it stays on. You need their special remover to get it off your face, and I've even gone swimming in it before and it doesn't budge. 

I usually get mine from European Body Art, and they also offer a water based option as well

Had a blast trooping with Star Garrison this weekend, and of course had to get a #vaderchallenge pic 
 

Got em!!!!

Basically how it would need to be fixed is by taking the collar off and resizing the neck hole, which is very hard to do without adding that additional seam that they're talking about. But a good hunk of the tunic would need to be dismantled to do so. The lining would need to be removed, and depending on how the tailor wants to go forward, some of the panels would be replaced.or that seam would be added.
 
As for pricing, some do and some don't. If a tailor has a flat rate, they may give a price, but most tailors I've met do charge by the hour and may provide their rates that way.

You definitely can, but the majority of people I know who had issues and were able to get it remade had theirs made with custom measurements. Never hurts to try though! 
 
A tailor may be able to fix it, but it may end up being more cost effective to reorder. I know my own shop rates aren't cheap, but it really does depend on who's in your area!!

Unfortunately if the collar is large like that, there isn't really a way to fix it, as there won't be enough material to take it in. 
 
If you provided neck measurements, measure what you received and compare it to what you sent. They're usually quite good about fixing orders that they've messed up

Understood, I'll have to inquire with my Garrison command then

Def not seeking a CRL, as its defiantly not something seen, but basically "conjecture" based off of what we have seen in various sources.
 
 

Ahaha I can't believe you are actually doing it!  I had so much fun making that mini comic, and to see that you are replicating it in real life makes me beyond exited!
I need to actually do this with our garrison's Vader on a troop next week!  How fitting that would be... !
 
 
 
 
 

Thought I was caught, but I'm still breathing...for now.
