Hey Bobby check this out: http://www.ebay.com/itm/STAR-WARS-IMPERIAL-OFFICER-2013-501ST-LEGION-BOBBY-LINN-PROMO-CARD-/301487292327?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item46320affa7
Your card and a bunch of others on sale on Ebay. Ask them for a cut lol

Mine isn't as cool, but I did it myself all analog style. I have resized a picture of myself, printed and cut it out with an xacto knife, and found the back ground I wanted and added titles in paint, then scanned myself in with my scanner. I do want to do a fancy digital one soon, but I need higher quality res images. Plus I was waiting approval to put our new squad logo on there!

Which begs the question: IOC Coin? We has them?!
-
Awesome, Welcome to the 501st and the IOC!

Congrat! I was gonna say I waited about a week. It was pretty quick, but our GML is stellar!

Brandon, I just received my holster from that vendor, it is AWESOME. I went with brown in 8 oz leather for my anh staff officer for 42, I like the beefier holster. Unless you're doing Veers in armor, I'd get brown.

Ran across this on Ebay this morning:
If these are your sizes and you missed out on Museum Replicas' Office Uniform, this is perfect for you. I'm donezo with my Line Officer, this wouldn't have fit me anyway. Looks like a pretty good deal. Check it out!

I had my pocket side 1 slightly longer than side 2 so I can overlap at the bottom of the pocket for strength. Sew.
Here's what it looks like complete. Iron flat.
Last time on my staff officer jodhpurs, I secured the pocket with metal snaps. I found on troops the snap would come open and annoy me. This time, velcro. Beats carrying your phone in your boot!
Hope this is helpful to someone. It is basic sewing for those that make their own uniforms, but an easy pocket for novice seamsters and someone who needs it done quick!

Either by machine or hand, sew it to the outside, keeping the stitches relatively close to the pocket hole
Now turn the pants inside out, and pull pocket side 1 through the hole,pin down on the inner (wrong) side. Iron flat, no steam.
Pin on the right side out so that it won't catch on the sewing machine
Back on the inside, pin pocket side 2 to pocket side 1. Put them towards center so you have room for the sewing machine foot to run by

If you were like me and received jodhpurs from Cosplaysky that have this:
Great place for a pocket, too bad they only give you a flap. So Let's make a pocket at least big enough for a smart phone and some cards. It's not like you sit down at troops anyways.
First pin that annoying flap up and out of the way. Measure where you want the opening to be (roughly center, smaller than flap) and chalk it out.
Find some strong lining material, like this scrap rayon lining. Figure out how big you want, cut 2.
Draw your measured line on the pocket side 1, cut with xacto knife. Do the same on line under flap
Pin pocket side 1 to right side (outer pants over flap), being careful to line up the holes

I recently got their deluxe uniform in olive and I requested they make smaller flares on the jodhpurs, and they look alot better than the flares on my first uniform from them. I would suggest that highly.
-
I would tend to agree. The reason people thought there were gray and olive line officers in ANH for the longest time is because of lighting having an effect on the color. This seems to me to be the artist showing an olive gray uniform in lower light, making it look dark gray. In my comic it actually seems to look greener.

Now my question is, lol how do I get one of those snazzy coins?
-
sounds like another book I need to order...
-
Awesome, congrats!!
-
And How!
-
I use a medium weight polartec base layer from REI. Thin enough it doesn't bulk up under the uniform, warm enough to troop outside in January.
-
Those look great they are totally fine for garrison events. Look better than altoid boxes. Only level 3 requires metal ones. Good job!

That's a steal! I can't fit in vintage or used boots myself. I'm looking for the least expensive custom made options at this point.

Found out last week they accidentally made mine in black and had to start over, d'oh. Mine should be coming soon, hopefully next week. Will post Line Officer WIP when it arrives for a review. Sophie and Mr. Xi have left the company, so custom requests go through a guy named Jerry, who has so far been easy to work with. We'll see how this one comes out.

This I gotta see. I need to find a pic of her in the nun outfit from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back for her to sign! Anthony Daniels I am more excited to meet, I met Kenny Baker in 1997 at Dragon Con and need to complete my droid collection.
