buckrogersbarker

Just got approved Sept 18/23 CRL Imperial Security Officer
I am happy and proud to be a part of the 501st Legion, German Garrison.
Ready for duty!

just recovering from Covid.  sorry for the delay.  But I just love these.

Little update from the Imperial Baton workshop
 
I just recently made a new Grand Admiral Baton as a commission for Christopher @Amadeus98
 
I also made two batons for Bob @buckrogersbarker two years ago, but I never showed them to you, so here we go, I'm sure Bob doesn't mind:

They are slighty larger than the first version, they are 36cm long and have just one octagonal end piece, I call them the Mark II Version.
 
The latest version again got a few updates, compared to my prototype from already six (!!) years ago, I can't believe it's that long.
 
The Mark III Baton is now 38cm long (still not as gigantic as its historical ancestors, but large enough to make an impression). It got two octagonal end pieces again, like the prototype, the imperial cogs are now lasercut which saved me at least five hours worktime (the laser needs 15 sec for one cog, by hand it takes 15 min) and I loved it! The materials are again beechwood and acrylic paint.
 
This time I also made a cardboard box with a blue velvet lining which turned out really nice in my opinion


 
I'm thinking about updating my personal Baton too and crafting myself a new one. There are already a few ideas in my head for a future Mark IV version
 
But until then - long live the Empire!

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.

I agree that this is a separate CRL for Doctor Pershing against the Imperial Medical Technicians for a few reasons.

The distance between the two appearances in universe is 27 years. 

Doctor Pershing's uniform has different colored  trim, straight pants with chelsea boots (versus clone war era boots), different belts and buckles.

@Dader ID7021 if you want to start a Doctor Pershing thread in the New CRL area, please do and post reference photos.  As soon as we have enough I will submit it to the LMO office in order to proceed.  DO take a look at the Galen Erson CRL and you will find much of the language that will be used for the Pershing CRL.

I’m here and ready to troop! Imperial Military Officer (non-saga). Very excited to costume as Tala Durith, even though though there’s no CRL for her exclusively. 
But I also must brag about my trench coat and Caf tumbler that add incredible amount of coolness at the same time that they keep me warm when it’s cold. I add an additional picture in comments. If anyone wishes for information about any costume details/accessories, feel free to ask. I’m extremely happy with all the vendors who have helped me making this dream come true. 
 
This summer has been very exciting for me as I have alsi been approved as TIE Reserve, Scanning Crew (in all 3 versions) and AT-ST driver. 

Congratulations on your approval, Anu! I wish you luck with your Tala Durith CRL quest. In the meantime, You'll need to request IOC access to the forums so you can check out all of the IOC only threads. Here's the link:

Thank you so much for your reply, information and input on my Tala Durith  I’m adding some photos.

This is complete! @buckrogersbarker can we move this into the completed section?
 
EDIT JK I have the power to move them myself now. 

This is something we are working on in conjunction with the new website that is being built.  The videos will primarily focus on the costumes, the parts that make them up and the lore that surrounds them.  We want them to have sufficient quality that not only would they be of use to members but to non members including those completely unfamiliar with the Star Wars costuming world.
 
you’ll be seeing the first efforts soon.  This is under our DPRO department 

This will be a status board that will list the CRL development in progress and where it last left off.
 
These will include the name of the CRL under development and where it is at (more references needed, Waiting on IOC CRL staff, waiting on LMO reply, discussion underway, physical changes being made, etc).

CRLs in Progress (at the moment ALL of these need to be finalized + LMO review):
 
Imperial Military Officer (Rebels) - Finalizing proposal Admiral Rampart - Discussion underway Grand Admiral Thrawn - Battle Armor (Rebels) - CRL text review Imperial Officer Flightsuit (Non-Saga) - Reviewing changes to compad Imperial Enlisted Flightsuit (Non-Saga) - Needs LMO review ISB Agent (BF2) - Needs LMO review Imperial Medical Officer - Needs LMO review Sith Eternal Officer - Needs additional references

It is a spy drama and the ISB deals with spies

Rank bars can't be backwards.  They just tell a different story when they are reversed.

Good to meet you Alex.  you are looking sharp.  Take some photos at your first troop to show us!!

My ISB Officer was approved this month, looking forward to trooping as it in a couple weeks!
 
(I think my rank bar is backwards..)
 

Thanks!
I’ve sent in my photos! 
*fingers crossed*

Request submitted to the LMOs.
