Can anyone point me to a source for an approvable holster for the SE-14R? Just picked up a good looking 3D printed kit, can't wait to get it assembled.

I have a reproduction German Field Marshall Interim Baton, similar in length to a swagger stick, but unfortunately politically incorrect.

What's a good source for an SE-14r resin kit?

Yes, we're going to fend off a rebel attack with harsh language. . . lol

Thanks, all. I'm most proud of the helmet. You buy a blank felt base & good luck thereafter. I have many original c.1881 parts on it (plume, plume pin, plume base, eagle, regimental number, cavalry side buttons [though I added correctly shaped officer hooks for the chin chain] and shield for storing the chin chain when not in wear) The other items cost a fortune for originals.

Me at the local Living History Show as an 1884 Colonel of the 3rd regiment, US Army Cavalry. Full Dress. Original glasses, belt buckle and many original parts on helmet. May do a Major General next year. Same boots as will go with my Imperial Crew, Gunner, TIE Pilot, etc.

I'm right there with you. I have a custom pair from Hessen, and I guess the Spaniards have narrow feet. I use a boot stretcher for 2 days before a trooping--that helps does not fix it 100% and the right boot pinches my foot terribly. I have a pair of their dress jackboots, ordered 1/2 size large, and they fit just fine. I may re-order from them, but with their stock riding boots--wont' do custom again. They also seem to "age" quickly even though I store them with forms inside.

Thanks, all!

Looking for a plain, white Imperial Cog decal for my car window. 4-5 inches across. Anyone know where they're available?

Thanks all! I really appreciate the input. I have a friend with a lot of theater experience. She had the same "A-Wing hit the bridge" idea. Took several different poses, using most of the above suggestions. I seem to favor the "Navigate to that star there"

GML wants an "action pose" for my Line Officer submission (assuming he didn't like the one I already sent). I see some photos aiming a blaster, but I don't presently have one--have a HFX DH-17 on the way, but really don't want to wait until I get it. Been looking through cleared Imperator and Executor photos. Any Ideas?

I made mine with long spring steel clips. They'd have to move a bunch before falling off.

Are the upper right tiles amber, or yellow?
-
Two I dyed the edges. one I put clear finish on the edge, last one I left completely raw.

For the belt, satin finish or high-gloss? Just finished 4 belts with Tandy "Stain Sheen." Looks right to me, but wanted to check. First time was a fail--easy to streak--leave glossy streaks. Used Acetone and did a do-over, re-dyed and was careful to not leave any finish "sitting" on the leather to make a glossy spot.

Anyone have the "specs" on the code disk? Might be able to machine one via faceplate on my small lathe. Or where is a good place to purchase a correct one?

Kalani directed me to the WampaWear White ISB Tunic. I simply love it! High quality suiting material in good weight. Easily my best Imperial tunic so far. Won't look "frumpy" like the thinner tunics. You get what you pay for. IMHO Thrawn (as seen on Ahsoka) should have gone to WW! His uniform is looking a bit worse for the wear.
