We need to come up with an all encompassing non saga boot CRL.
Here's what we have so far. What should we add or change?
 
Officer Boots Knee-high, black, riding style, lace-less, smooth non-textured, leather or leather-like material. Boots have conservative heels. A single stretch panel or zipper may be present, they are to be hidden on the inner part of the boot shaft. Not visible from the front, side or back. The top of the boots may be flat or Spanish Style, but not Cowboy or Super Hero (pointed at the front) style. A small V-shaped notch may be present on the back of the boots top.  
OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable): Boots can have a zipper. OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable): Boots are made of leather. Not vinyl or PVC. Exact replicas of English riding (dress) boots or Equestrian boots.

You can get the codes from

Photos of armor progress:
NOTE: The armor needs some corrections, but with your input and help I'm sure it will be completed accordingly.

For Krennic cape. There is a side hole for the arm to come out (which is pretty much super useless) but it is mostly cover up. And there are alot of top stitching for his cape. You can use eye hooks or buttons to clip to the tunic. 


I have use Off white denim kind of fabric to give some weight to the cape.

 







There is a lady who did a Officer Tunic overall which you will need to puzzle it (or below there is an idea on how the pattern may look)
 

Hi everyone,
 
Here's to hoping Greene or someone can wrangle a back view of this costume out of LFL. 
 
Bob asked about our process decrying a lack of transparency. There isn't much to it. If we're not already involved on the respective detachment forums, we'll get word from a detachment about a possible inclusion (usually via lmo@501st.com) of a new to the legion costume, we discuss it in the LMO area on the legion forums, and we vote on it. 
 
One improvement we intend to make (as suggested by Rikki today) is to put a time limit on the vote and discussion. It'll be a 7 day period to ensure the detachment isn't waiting on us. 
 
In past years the decision was made unilaterally, usually with input from the team, by the lead LMO. Last year Nathan instituted an all LMO vote for such things which Kris and I continued on. Going even further back in history the LMO made all the decisions with zero transparency often just authoring CRLs himself (when I was DL of FISD the LMO dropped the jes gistang CRL on me without even consulting with the detachment). 
 
I cannot speak for past LMOs, but personally having been around the LMO block a few times, I've been very consistent in requiring front, back and side references. This time the entire team agreed. I have and will continue to apply this standard, even to comics, trading cards, and other non-screen references too. 
 
What’s a little ironic is that you can find threads on the legion forum accusing me of not believing in accuracy. I often take a much softer stance on the need to put every single detail with measurements in our requirements. The Greedo CRL being my very favorite of all of them. Here we are being lambasted on social media and the forums by a campaign against our desire for accuracy. 
 
I do feel terrible for the costumer who made the Sith Eternal Officer. I harbor no small amount of guilt for our decision even if I think it is the right one. 
 
If you look back on the history of new to the legion costumes you will find wild inconsistencies having to do with whatever LMO team was ratified that year. Precedence is often thrown out the window year to year when there is a change in LMO. That is the nature of the LMO office. You'll find this is true with your GCOs too. 
 
The system where the LMO decides if a costume is acceptable for inclusion in the 501st was created when the legion was smaller, and then radically updated by Anderson along the way in 2016. Given our growth, if you feel that there may be a better process I invite you to contact your GCO or DL (both of your reps have access to council) to propose an amendment to the operating protocols. 
 
The question becomes... How do we move forward?
 
My suggestion is to start a thread of all the potential new to the legion costumes or major edits to existing ones and start discussing them as early as possible. I'm happy to start it. I'd prefer a collaboration from the get go to avoid where we are now with this costume. 
 
I totally understand the anger and frustration. It's a crappy situation. Let’s work together to avoid it in the future. 
 
Thank you,
 
—Eric

Bob,
 
Give me a day or two to do some reading on these costumes and then I'll circle the LMO wagons. I'll let you know the day we start a vote so IOC may have the 7 day count down.
 
Many thanks,
 
-Eric
 

I'm genuinely curious, what CRLs did the LMOs pass unfairly that is leading everyone to believe this isn't fair?

My boots have padding so normaly I wear really thin socks inside. so I can get my feet out LOL 

Let's try to keep things civil on the Forum. Personal jabs will not be tolerated.

But it wasn't just Kris Kpbus who would have made the decision... it's a whole team of LMOs who decides whether it's greenlighted or not.

Hi guys,
 
i think this is the correct place to discuss the current crl :).
 
i noticed the following points (refer to my wip)
1.
"Tunic has top-stitching in these specific areas:
Approximately 1" (2,54mm) from the outer edge of the double breast/double back
its a tipping error - 1" is 25,4 mm or 2,54cm"  
2.
"The back of the tunic has princess seams that run vertically and turn outward to intersect the arm-hole seam at the vertical center.“
 
 
3.
"Tunic has top-stitching in these specific areas:
Approximately 1/4" (6mm) from the outer edges of the double breast/double back" Comparing this with screenshots 1/4" could be a bit to much and maybe 2-3mm (=0,08-0,12") would be better.


best regards
 

First Order Colonel / Major is Dark Teal color

Hello Officer uniform makers!
We thought it would be good to have a quick primer on how to go about creating a NTTL CRL.
 
First, decide what you're trying to accomplish.
Is it a completely new, never done in the 501st costume?  That's NTTL. Is it an officer that wears an existing IOC/501st costume, but maybe with a funny hat?  That's probably not NTTL.  
For completely New to the Legion costumes, you need to consider a few things.
Is the character a "Bad Guy"?  That's the easiest qualifier, though that isn't a hard set rule.  See Bith Musicians. Is the character portrayed by a human?  For example, IG-88, or IG-11 wouldn't qualify as they were droids without people in them.  And before you ask, Gonk droids and R2 units don't count either.  
Once you decide what you're going for, and have a good idea if it will be allowed, you need to think about which Detachment it would fall under.  Take a look through the existing Detachment CRL Lists to see which one will be best suited to helping you in the process.
 
Then you'll want to make a forums account there, introduce yourself and see if anyone has started on the same path as you.  You'd be surprised to see how many times someone will start their research and then have life get in the way.  Why not use that info (if it's there)?  It also helps to ask the staff what they think.  They might not see your project as a good fit, and will almost always suggest where they think it (and thus you) would be better served.
 
So now you have your character.  You feel confident it will work.  You have an idea where to post your project.  What next?
References.  Photos from the source.  Behind the scenes. Deleted scenes.  Art books.  Artist sketches.  Trading cards. You name it, you're gonna need it, and it needs to be official.  Fan art doesn't count.
And keep in mind, we aren't just looked at from the front.  You need all angles.  Front, sides, back.
When you think you have enough, keep looking.  You want this air tight, locked down from the get go.
 
This Legion link is the last word on the issue, because the post you're reading isn't all encompassing.
CRL Guide  Read it.  Know it.  You will be tested.
 
Scared yet? Don't be.  Creating a NTTL is the hardest, most rewarding thing we do as costumers in the 501st.  Not everyone can do it.  In fact very few do.  But don't be discouraged.  The IOC staff is here to help!  We want you to succeed!!

The v chest and shoulders are a separate piece and semi rigid.
The Sith emblem is 3D not flat on both hat and belt.
The boots are First Order and have buckles and straps.
The middle of the hat is ribbed like the neck seal and the belt the crown is fabric.
The rank bar says STEMS
I can see no vent at the bottom rear of the tunic.

The best part that the CRL already exists is the process for you to clear will be much much quicker

Perhaps it would be advisable to get basic approval first, then seek Level 2 & three clearance with this specific character. There are only so many (and will forever be so many) named CRLs in the IOC, since so many background characters share the same uniform.

The red rank is already part of the Flag Officer CRL.
 

I dont think anyone likes wearing wigs 

Just wondering if anybody would be interested in purchasing screen-accurate Imperial scanning crew/bridge crew/officer headsets?
 
They will be made from metal components, with accurate boom mic tip and leather headpad. The headset is a costume prop and otherwise-non functional. A short lead with a 3.5mm jack is included, but is a dummy, and designed to be long enough to tuck into costume. The headset is the result of a lot of research and observation of the original props and their components.
 
If anyone is interested, I plan on producing short runs to order, and measured to your head and cap size. There will be two versions- the 'Crewman' design with aluminium spun earpieces, and silver mic tip, and the 'Veers' design with semigloss black earpieces and black mic tip. The cost will be £40 per headset, excluding delivery.

Here is a free downloadable STL file for an Ear Relief Strap that I made for the IOC.

please enjoy, share, print some for others but do not profit off it(charge for cost and shipping, but do not put on a resale site).
thank you!
