It’s sometimes good to pick a officer from one of the films or shows and match your rank ect

Daniel "TipperaryRed" Flynn, requesting an adviser in Ireland (Tipperary to be more specific, but less realistic!) for help with a Line Officer costume.

 

I've already started my build thanks to some advice from some in the Irish Garrison, and have already sorted out some boots, the hat, belt and code cylinders.  I'd like more advice on the tunic/jodhpurs and the rank bar, and I also want to double check that the boots I went with meet the standards.

 

I'm also feeling adventurous and am curious to see if there's a way to have removable blood stripes (without it looking tacky), so that it doubles as a 181st Dress Uniform for the JRS.

I'm happy to keep helping you as we have already talked on the garrison forum

IN dress uniform R1 and the IN dress uniform ANH are very similar.

 

There is one IN with the black officer tunic in ROTJ. He can be seen in the Control room when Vaders shuttle approaches the Death Star.  You can only see his upper body.

 

There are a couple of IN with officer tunics, jodhpurs, and riding boots. One or two stand guard at Vaders door and two carry away the Captain that lost the Falcon after Vader chokes him.

Can anyone else see a code cylinder in the right pocket of the Rotj navy trooper 

[Line/Staff Officer Service Dress, proposal.]

What about hats are they optional the British army head dress can be removed inside but as to be worn outside 

[Boot Approval]

They look very good boots to me 

[Solo - and new uniforms!]

It would be called mess dress in the British army to be worn of duty but still being a officer 

[Hux & FO General amends!]

Hi guys!

A couple of things I've noticed regarding General Hux's CRL (and in turn, the generic FO General's CRL) and I'd like to request the following changes please!

 

1. At some point (I believe back when Hux was most recently overhauled some months ago) the fold-over detail at the knee of the jodhpurs was removed. It did used to be there prior to the overhaul as optional but this needs to be basic clearance as a key feature of the pants design. This is a key aspect of the costume, and appears as an acceptable basic clearance requirement on the grey Lieutenant/Captain CRL. Please can this be added? You can see them a lot throughout the movie, and in the visual dictionary, and on several Hux action figures etc etc. You can also clearly see them in place on the CRL model's pants. Should just need to copy across the text from the Lieutenant/Captain as they're the same pants just in Hux's fabric!

2. The greatcoat should have a split at the rear of the coat. It starts at the centre of the waist seam and goes right to the bottom. You can see this in the film, during Hux's speech, the wind catches the coat and you can see straight through that split. Check out this vid from around 1:18 in:

 

 

Again, this split is visible in several action figures etc. It is also clearly visible on the CRL model's coat. It's a key aspect of the coat's design, not hard at all to put into place, and should be there!

3. For whatever reason the generic FO General has not been updated at all to keep up with Hux's updates. If one was to make a generic General and not a Hux, they'd be held to completely different standards to a Hux candidate. This needs updating in full please!

I've only seen a Inverted box seam on the coat have you any other pics
