I'm also building that costume, and we can use the language from that CRL for many of the parts.

Thank you for pointing out that Woody Harrelson is vegan. The description card for the costume display lists the natural non-animal materials. In this case, I think it gave us a really interesting prop of that double blaster gunslinger rig, instead of the standard leather gun belt.



The following photos are of the standard costume, but show the belt, gloves, and boots. 





 













































Back of belt:

Becket's cloth holster and gunbelt (Woody Harrelson is notoriously an extreme vegan and won't wear leather) should be detailed pretty well as part of his Underworld costume.  Have you checked their CRL for some the parts he brought over?  Might be a good starting point.
 
Edit: Yep: https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:Beckett

Roger that! Yes, I would like to help develop this costume and CRL. 

I am working on a regular Tobias Beckett costume, and am a fan of the character. 

I'll begin gathering reference.

We have received confirmation that this costume will be placed with the IOC.
 
@haringjr Did you want to start working up this costume?  I can get the language copied over from the regular Mimban Officer CRL to get the text started.

A NTTL request was sent to the LMO on June 10, 2024.

We have confirmation that the Beckett Mimban Officer Disguise CRL will be placed with the IOC. 
 
CRL development thread is here:
 

IMO, the costume is what gets associated with the Detachment moreso than the individual.  Underworld should absolutely have the regular Beckett costumes, but I think IOC is a better home for the costume he literally stole from an Officer LOL.
 
We would likely borrow the language Underworld used for his blasters and boots and such, from his regular outfit but worn under the coat.

If you're serious about requesting that costume, we can put in a request with the LMO team to have it assigned to IOC.  I would assume it would be between the IOC and Underworld... I can easily see both / either for this character, but this variant seems to make a bit more sense to house in the IOC, given that it's the same base costume.
 
I'll spin up a new thread for that CRL and tag you.

I am OK with the proposed changes. 

I do like the goggles, but understand the discussion both ways. 

On the subject of Beckett, I'm willing to work on CRL development for Becket Officer Disguise, if IOC would like that as a costume. I'm working on a regular Beckett costume as well as a Mimban Officer. 

I reckon the ammo pouch should be optional regardless of the jacket wear, there's a few that aren't wearing it - this guy at the Becket blackmail scene doesn't appear to be wearing one for example


Here is an officer with open jacket + Ammo pouch. Unidentifiable rank on my end unless anyone can catch it?
And to throw a curveball, a headset


 
Main man LT has the lapel seam also

 
Another geezer with the headset

 
As a potential base, looks like tactical shooting headphones?

 
Also based on the first officer we see, can we get the E10 as an optional blaster too?
 
 

A couple of quick thoughts:
 
1) The chest pocket seems pretty solid, at this point.  I'm fine with adding it as a L2 detail, I suppose, but it's present, in every single instance I've been able to find (definitely more than the one jacket).
 
2) The seam on the lapel... I think that needs to be optional.  I've been watching this sequence over and over, and that seam is definitely not present on Beckett's jacket, only this guy's.  The screenshot I took above is very indeterminate... I frame-stepped through that guy's bit also, and could not see the seam, although it's all pretty shadowed and motion blurred.  I kinda wonder if there was a mishap and they decided to just fix it with a visible seam, on that one coat, rather than remake the whole thing.
 
3) I think the fur collar should indeed remain optional (as it is now).  Those are often button-on overlays, and not necessarily a permanent part of every trenchcoat.  It seems to ONLY be present on this guy you posted above.  Not Beckett's, not the one I screenshot in my prior post.  There are several other background officers that you get glimpses of, and I don't see it on any of them, either.  One of them maaaaybe.
 
4) Wearing the coat open should indeed be an option, again, referencing my screenshot above.  (He also has armor under his coat, which I captured in another frame but I'm not going to bother to post it here... it's there).  Also worn open on a BUNCH of the background officers that we can't really see clearly enough to get details on, but definitely have open coats.  We don't really know what everything else looks like, under the coat, when you wear it open, and that's annoying, but I guess all the outside stuff goes inside?  Ammo pouch, and perhaps the scarf, would need to move to Optional, in that configuration.
 

I'm not sure about the seam on the lapel... that kinda seems unique to this one trenchcoat (and I'd like additional shots to confirm that, too).  I don't see a seam like that on the Andor trenchcoats.
 
The right side chest pocket seems universal, however.  It's a Level 1 detail for Dedra Meero (a face character), but we can consider having that be a L2 detail for generic characters.

Burton Moto Boa boots! 
And the extra straps and parts. I haven't identified the pad on the back of the heel of the prop boots yet. 

I'll draft up some sketches of how the extra details are added.

Super lucky indeed!

Good news! I have a pair of what seem to be ultra rare Burton boots, in the correct color, in my size. Found them on eBay. This was the only time I've seen them in that color, and the only example I've found out in the world currently. 

I also got the additional straps and pads. 

I'll post up photos.

I'm running out the door, but off the top of my head: I seem to recall we did see both, right?  Or did they ALL wear the ski boots?  I haven't had coffee yet so the brain isn't up and running just now. LOL
 
But we would probably (normally) build the CRL with the most common configuration... assuming we can find someone who actually has the costume set up that way.  But then make Jack boots an optional variant.

I'll have a look, I think I can fix it by editing through the app

@AdmiralJag Your photos disappeared. Any way to repair?

@Bowrider Nice work on the suit pattern. 

What fabric do we think is correct for the suit? 
The suit has contrast visible stitching, correct?

Could the CRL be built with the jackboots as the standard, and the insulated boots as the option?
 

Gotta catch 'em all!

So found someone that 3D modeled the Zap Rod the guards had!
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/zap-rod-from-andor-series
 
Looks pretty good in my opinion, what do ya'll think?

For the rubber sole, I was planning on using a Plastidip-type product. Mask off the area, spray. I haven't looked into whether an orange exists. 

The toe has some added detail which I might try in foam clay or foam. 

For fabric/leather painting, I like Angelus paints. They are acrylic, and as Natalie @JynInDisguise said, you can use other acrylics, but Angelus has it figured out and I've had great results with that product. I painted my AT-AT boots with Angelus. 

I've been surprised they haven't shown up anywhere in a web search, and none on eBay. That's uncommon for contemporary found parts. The production bought all the remaining stock! 

The same model is available in different colors. I've had luck painting fabric so that's likely the route I'll take if necessary. Would love to find the correct color though. Good luck!
