    Thrawn: uniforms 300credits, food 200credits, art 10,000credits, ysalimiri 150credits. Someone help me budget, the empire is dying.
     
    Eli Vanto: Spend less on art?
     
    Thrawn: No.

    Thanks for all that legwork @kman
    Disappointing that we didn't get anything definitive.

    More visual appearance options for multiplayer?

    Your question on those specific boots was answered; but if you're already considering the idea of a cobbler, be aware then that any boot that has a back seam on the shaft can be brought in on the calf - if that's the main reason you can't go for other boot options, seek out a cobbler in your area with pics and discuss your options.

    Vanto reacted to rattleandburn in Imperial Cadet changes   
    -Bump-

    When this was originally posted, Mark immediately then posted the thread re: no updates until staff changeovers etc were finished. As we are updating and discussing things obviously that timeframe was passed and I want to re-open this issue.

    All the data and reference has been presented, as well as Hound's opinion as the creator/model of the existing CRL.

    How do we wish to proceed on this matter?

    I presented it as a generic change, as in all should be able to do this thing with the reference applied. We have since discussed a separate CRL as Hound's was intended to be specifically a singular character (I was not pushing a CRL here). If the former, then it should be a very quick change given all the reference material available. If the latter (and potentially with changes regarding how it was interpreted in animation versus comic form), then can we discuss to proceed? It was a purely theoretical discussion to open up availability of the uniform a bit; but now I have this cadet uniform in progress and want to know what to do with it - as it was intended specifically for Cadet Thrawn as seen in the ref.

    I'd love to see this added to the CRL, but I think for the sake of both accuracy and creators/vendors/buyers spending time and resources on this article, we should do some legwork in contacting the Powers That Be to try to get a definitive size range on it, as its not seen on screen. 

    We included Hux's blaster as per TFA vis dic when it was not seen in use until TLJ, but in that case we knew that it was the blaster already seen on screen, painted differently, and could then know how to replicate it correctly. Vis dic pics arent necessarily to scale.

    We see some really big data pads in TLJ, and in the other non-CRL thread discussion on this we had people supposing it could be small (phone/passport wallet size) and Nathaniel assumed A4 (which seems a good assumption imo).  I think we just need to clarify a vague size range -i.e. is it more iPhone or iPad- before we put it out there

    Here we go!



    It's saved my life several times with writing and getting things straight
    The same person also put together this AWESOME timeline for the events of the book and how they interact with the rest of the canon

    However since it basically tells the whole plot of the book, I'm just gonna leave it as a link here and keep spoilers at a minimum for people who haven't read it yet

    I don't know what you're talking about, I've clearly never cared about Ensign Vanto once in my life. 
     
    But yeah, I've heard that about Aftermath. Admittedly, I haven't read a ton of the new canon, but I grew up reading the EU. I thought Thrawn did a really good job of that though, with enough references to make the older fans happy but a new enough story to be able to stand alone also. Going out to the Unknown Regions in the new canon will be interesting though since there won't be anything to contradict whatever Zahn wants to write. 
     
    ...if we get the flashback of Thrawn meeting Anakin, there's a possibility of Obi-Wan content. Or Ahsoka!!

    Eli Vanto is perfect and has never done one thing wrong in his whole life.

    I feel that though. I tried to get through the Aftermath series and i STRUGGLED. Ended up just skipping to the last one, which actually worked better than expected. Whereas Thrawn just FLEW. I think the plane ride to Celeb helped though lol

    More than willing to send you a copy if you need!! The B&N cover was my fav out of all of them tbh

    I think Thrawn is actually one of the few SW books I've read but don't actually own... I just stole @Tentayena's when he made me read it lolol and now look at what I've become.

    I don't even think I've cracked the spine of my Celebration copy of Thrawn. I went and bought a regular copy to actually read. XD Fancy special edition Thrawn is safely tucked away on a bookshelf somewhere to likely never bee touched again.
    Action figures and toys I'll open and mess around with. Books? Books are serious business!

    I cracked it enough to swap the book jackets of the B&N and the celebration one
    Because I kept getting unnerved by the celebration one staring at me from my bookshelf

    But i have one perfect signed celeb copy, my normal one to drag around, the one that has the celeb book jacket that I hid under more books, and the audiobook......
