I did get an update this morning about changing the Face L2 requirement.
OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
Facial appearance and hair match very closely to that of Stanley Townsend.
They asked to remove his name and make it something generic like "matches the onscreen character."
Thinking on it, the whole L2 requirement is redundant, so I removed it.
Most of the IOC face character CRLs do not mention this, but GM Tarkin and Moff Gideon do.
Admiral Tarkin's says "must look like Admiral Tarkin from the cartoon".

For transparency, I'm posting this here.
I spoke with @Callista about the belt boxes. I know earlier in the thread there was talk about belt boxes. I initially thought they used Rogue One Boxes and the suggestion was to make the smaller Andor sized boxes a L2 requirement.
The belt boxes in the pictures above are OT sized and too large. So, we are making sure they get the correct boxes.
The belt boxes have broader applications other than just Beehaz.
It's clear the andor boxes are a wee bit smaller.
Rogue One boxes: 76.2mm tall, 50.8 mm wide, 25.4mm deep, made from metal and have square corners.
Andor boxes are 67mm tall, 45mm wide and 25mm deep, made from resin, painted, and have notched corners.
Most folks trooping would rather have metal ones over resin because...it's stunt vs hero. The metal looks better in real life and will hold up better for years of trooping. We don't have to be "prop accurate" here, but that also should not be discouraged.
I think L2 or 3 would be good for andor sized boxes.
We will, of course, need to change the existing CRLs to allow for Andor boxes. It's been on my to do list for weeks.
Great work on the thread here so far and great proposal It's a very unique update to the Officer look for sure!
Just as a quick note on Belt Boxes (Thanks for reminding me @Hoda!) I'd like to point at the thread over here that discusses the size of (screen used) Andor Belt Boxes:
THIS IS AMAZING! I can't wait to see this in person at SWC!
Belt box - is that the OT version of the belt box? (I'm terrible at reading these sizes). If so, might want to swap that out to a smaller version of the belt box as seen in the non-saga shows.
Once the costume is finished, I'll need detail photos of each and every component, as well as the standard CRL poses (front and back). We will then alert the LMO office and they will create the wiki for us to fill in.
I will take the text that's already written and plug it in there with the photos. Once that is complete, they do a final review.
Today another fitting and last details checked by watching „the eye“ another five times.
The boots from Crowprops will arrive tomorrow and end of March everything is ready.
Now that we are coming close to the approval request, how is it working since the CRL isn’t yet in the Database?
Are we applying in the German Garrison and our GMOs get in contact with you?
Some things should go without saying, but we live in an age where we do have to say things. I will cross post this in the Officer's Mess too.
At no times will this detachment be a home or accepting to people that are friendly to or espouse the ideas behind fascism, Nazism or any totalitarian ideology. We dress up as fictional space bad guys. Conflating any of the above with doing that is not only morally wrong, it puts at risk what we do here in this detachment and the legion as a whole. We will not allow such a risk.
I have spoken to members who have belonged to reenacting groups that have had those ideologies come into them. That will not be permitted here, not under this administration. And if that day ever comes that it would be allowed, I would hope you would join me in finding another hobby.
There will be no litmus tests for members. If you are a reenactor, I hope you enjoy doing it and I hope you keep the ideology out of it. There is no conversation over re-enacting that you cannot take private. And if you are an open adopter of the ideologies listed above, no one wants to hear it...ever. If you see something in violation of this, please contact the staff and we will deal with it promptly.
