    bjsavage7 got a reaction from TK676 in Grey hat for ESB scanning crew?   
    The jumpsuit collars do have a subtle upward point in th back of the neck. This "should" still be in the CRL if you look at the higher levels. 
    And of course, we have known for a long while that lighting and film quality have played havok with how we percieve these colors for many years. The crew hats are the same color as the officer uniforms.

    The soles are very thick in comparison to original German Knobelbecher boots. But that is the only thing that isn't 100% correct with these boots.

    This isn't reason enough alone to fail these boots for Executor standard. So I would pass these at this level.

    They would not meet the higher Imperator level though.

    So did a quick costest today. Still need to put the rank band and badge on the jacket, need to get a Sith Logo printed for the belt, get a proper set of gloves and the pants and boots are stand ins for the actual ones which will be coming soon.  Oh, and figure out the hat. 
     
    Still, really pleased with how its coming along. Hopefully it won't be too much longer.

    So due to isolation and my seamstress friend's work closing, she has been bored and decided to work on my Sith tunic (its currently at her house because she had the fabric and mock up pattern on her when she went into isolation) We made the mock up pattern (green one) together but she is bored and made up the whole tunic herself and is now up to adding the red piping and lining to cover the invisible zip. 
     
    She wanted me to stress that this is v01 and not nearly neat or clean enough for her but honestly, having not seen it in person since the pattern stage due to lockdown, I am amazed at how it looks. 
     
    Me, being in a different home, made up the rank band the other day.

    You always have approval to work on a new costume, and you are already in the right place to seek review. You may fire when ready.

    bjsavage7 reacted to Hask in Admiral Versio CRL   
    As with all CRL's a costume needs to exist first, my advice study the character as it may not be a simple case of just altering an existing costume, for example the fabric may be of a different texture. add your results to the existing thread.

    bjsavage7 reacted to LordMalexit in Agent Ysanne Isard proposed CRL   
    Good evening to all!
     
    Sorry for the delay but there has been a lot of interesting discussing on the matter.
    The LMO team has come to the decision that the character seems more of the artist's interpretation of the ISB uniform in stead of a totally new cotume. Also there is not enough reference for the back, and the collar that changes from panel to panel. So an entirely new CRL cannot be made.
     
    - BUT -
     
    The team is also discussing the possibility of adding new options in the already existing ISB officer CRL, so the costumer could apply for a "Ysanne Isard version".
    In a few days I will come back with the team's decision.
     
    Thank you for your patience,

    Just FYI: The 501st is simply waiting for someone to make these costumes accurately, & then successfully send all photos and descriptions to the applicable IOC staff. Nothing can move forward until that happens.

    Gideon (even with respect to his brief ISB mention) will certainly/most likely fall under IOC, despite the very minimal TIE greeblies/parts ...IF someone even creates the costume correctly
    ...dude in the  cell....mehhhh..... probably not slightly even a feasible crl with little-to nothing shown of his costume.
    That could certainly change, of course with flash-backs or what have you

    [MODERATOR NOTE: THIS RANK CHART THREAD IS NOW CONSIDERED OBSOLETE.  PLEASE SEE THE FOLLOWING THREAD FOR THE CURRENT RANK CHART USED BY THE IOC: ]
     
    [/END OF MODERATOR NOTE]
     
    This the official guide to illustrate all canon officer ranks recognized by the IOC. It is compiled with reference from the original movies, and official EU sources. It is created from a costuming point of view, and not meant to explain every rank's importance or how they differ from movie to movie (that's what fan fiction is for). It is just a simple chart that shows what rank officially goes on what costume. Code cylinders are intentionally excluded, and can be referenced in the CRLs.
     
    Note Rogue one/Solo ranks are only compatible with Rogue one uniform style

    bjsavage7 reacted to Mitthrawnuruodo in General Veers CRL   
    Let's start with the question of why Pryce gets one. Simply put her uniform is 100% different. Animated uniforms in general are 100% different from the movies.
    I can't just wear my normal green suit and say "I'm Kassius Konstantine", the rank bars and code cylinders are different shapes, the boots aren't perfect matches, the collars have those black marks on them, the hat disks and belts are totally different. There's nothing I can use from my movie uniform and have it be approved as an animated officer.
     
    What's different between Veers, Piett and Needa? Number of code cylinders and rank bar tiles. "But Ozzel has a mustache!" He sure does, but his uniform and accessories are exactly the same as every other officer in the original trilogy. "But Motti and Tagge don't wear hats!" You're right, we don't see them wearing hats and many others in A New Hope are hat-less. But the uniforms and accessories themselves are the same as all the others. "But Tarkin gets his own CRL!" You're right, he does, and about 95% of his uniform is exactly the same as all the others. But he has the dress shirt under his uniform and a very specific hair style and facial features. Admittedly that doesn't really seem like enough to warrant a whole separate CRL, but if I go troop an event as Veers, and halfway through I decide to change up my code cylinders and rank bar and walk back out as Piett that's a 5 second change. If I start an event as Tarkin and want to change to Jerjerrod I'd have to wash my hair, clean off my old man makeup, take off the dress shirt under my tunic, add a hat and change up all the other accessories. Not as simple/quick.
     
    But for arguments sake lets say the Detachment Leader decides to publish a Veers CRL. Great. Now people want Motti, and Tagge, and Piett both admiral and captain, and Khurgee... the list is endless and all we're doing between those CRLs is changing accessories, facial hair, and hair styles. That's just a nightmare for the detachment staff, LMO team, and webteam. 
     
    My proposed counter idea would be to have character specific galleries in the CRL similar to the TIE Pilot helmet detail examples - https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TI_TIE_Pilot_Helmet-detail
    Similar idea, just list named officers and show an image of their accessories and a small text description example: General Veers - X# of code cylinders in X style, rank bar is X rows with X red tiles and X blue tiles

    I understand the want to be an officially approved Veers vs. just a line officer, but there's nothing stopping any of us at a troop saying, "Hi, I'm General Veers" when talking to fans.
