  1. I agree with bobafett4ever and charlyselo that the CRL should reflect what we see on screen. Due to that line officers and ISBs should be able to wear a hat or go without it. The partygoers in Solo and the Science officer in R1 are never seen with a hat so it should not be optional. As for the hall walkers in ANH, they are only seen with hats or IN helmets.

    Yes Patricia, thanks for the clarification. The ANH ISB and the Grand Admiral are not interchangeble. A little confusion since he never distinguished. 

    Matt

    You are welcome. There has been quite a lot of confusion going on in this forum about different types of uniforms and the correct terms for them since Solo hit the movie theaters. :-)

    I know optional hats for Line Officers has been brought up many times before.

    While there are plenty of example of them without, there's more examples of them with. Every Officer in ESB and ROTJ has them and there's many in ANH and R1 that do.

     

    I don't think we should be trying to change that CRL (yet), I think getting this one up first is a higher priority.

    I do not think that we will get this CRL approved by the LMOs before we have good references from the Blue Ray. So we might as well take care of more issues while we are at it. If the hat has come up many times before then it was not taken care of the first time around or it would not come up again. Some would say that all the guys without hats are named face characters and only those can go without the hats. Many named officer do not have their own CRL. As far as I know, the guys in Solo are not named character. We need to set some sort of standard concerning hats or this will come up again and again.

    Good catch to bring Admiral Gorin up, and you are right, I also never saw a Staff Officer without a hat. But it would be interesting, if we can really make the hat optional for the Line Officer CRL.

     

    I think it should be doable if we have enough references to prove that line officers did not wear hats all the time. In ANH we have all guys that were in the conference. In Rogue One, we have Grand Moff Tarkin, General Romodi and Admiral Gorin. If are not just talking about line officer we could also include director Krennic and Galen Erso. In Solo, we have the guys at the party. In rebels, we have quite a few officers that do not have hats on. For instance Grand Moff Tarkin, Colonel Yularen, Governor Pryce, Admiral Thrawn and Alton Kastle, the broadcaster on HoloNet News.

    This ^

     

    What's seen on screen should trump everything, even if only seen once for a brief instance.  Then we can go to VDs, costume designers, then non-canon material (video games [are are those canon - I never remember anymore], etc).

     

    Remember the conference room scene from ANH.  No one wore hats.  Hats should have been optional from day 1 for any named Line Officer.  I'm pretty sure the older, bald officer with 6 Amber badges in R1 didn't wear a hat either.  I forget his name offhand.

     

    Maybe when CRLs are cleaned up, this could be updated.  Although I know I'm digressing.  

     

    As for a Staff Officer, I haven't seen one that I am aware of yet, clearly, that was without a hat.  I'm trying to think in Rebels if one was seen, but I don't think so... even at the academy.

    R1 and ANH have many (more in ANH obviously) hatless officers.

    Another named character that was in the conference scene in ANH and did not wear a hat at the time was Colonel Yularen. If I remember correctly he also does not wear a hat in Rebels. If I am not mistaken the guy that commended the star destroyer that gets another one pushed in his by a hammerhead corvette in Rogue One also did not wear a hat. I think we should make hats for line officers and ISB ANH optional when we clean up the CRLs. We have enough proof that they are not worn all the time. Unfortunately, I cannot remember ever seeing a staff officer without his hat.

    When I say staff or line officer, I'm referring to that kind of suit, not his job, hierarchical position, etc... That's why I'm saying that for the Staff Officer Service Dress CRL we need a proof of a Staff officer (not 451), in a Service Dress, wearing a hat. And the same for a Line officer. Hall Walkers had a different jacket...

    I usually do the same if I talk about a certain tunic/uniforms. Unfortunately, the water has been muddied due to the fact some people have problems distinguishing the different uniforms and are using the wrong terms.

     

    I think we should go by what we see on screen. The guys at the party do not wear hats. I would be ok with having hats as optional items because it would make sense that they have them but just do not wear them at the party. I do not want to have another poncho-gate, so we should just leave them out of the CRL because they are not seen in that movie.

     

    It is nice to read what Mr. Crossman wrote to bobofett4ever but it is only nice to know. We try to copy what was seen on screen, in comics or computer games. The information that Mr. Crossman provided does not really help us.

  7. 30 minutes ago, charlyselo said:

    The point with Hall Walkers is that they are not either staff or line officers...

    I will add hats as optional to the proposal, but I'm still not convinced...

    The problem is that we do not know what the hall walkers were supposed to be.

     

    I took this text out of my post from January 29th, 2018 on the Hall Walker CRL. I tried to shed some light on the occupation of the hall walkers.

     

    A New Hope: Star Wars: Episode IV (Lucas, George) Position 2478-2480 [page 138 of 216]

     "The farther they traveled, the heavier the traffic became. Other soldiers, bureaucrats, technicians and mechanicals bustled around them. Intent on their own assignments, they ignored the trio completely, only a few of the humans sparing the wookie a curious glance."

     

    I think the "mechanicals" are the droids. The "soldiers" are most likely the navy trooper. The "bureaucrats" are probably the ISBs. So then the "technicians" would be the hall walkers. That would make the most sense due to the fact that one of the old hall walkers is standing behind Tarkin wearing an IN helmet and headphones.

    Hey, all.

     

    So, I've been looking at doing an officer for a while now since my TK pinches in all the wrong places. Plus, it'd be nice to be able to sit down once in a while.

     

    Anyway, I've set my eyes on the ISB officer and Grand Admiral, and the CRL pics on the main 501st site make it look like the tunic is the same. Is that correct, or am I missing something?

     

    My idea is that if they're the same, just to sew some strong magnets into the shoulders to connect the epaulets (invisibly!) and just make the rank bars. So far as I can tell, that's the only difference (plus hat and pants, of course). Is that right, or am I going to have to pick between the two? I'd like to get an advanced certification, but if I can sacrifice that and get a twofer, that would be awesome.

     

    Thanks!

     

    I think you two are not talking about the same tunic. If I understand Jeff correctly he would like to use one tunic for both Grand Admiral and ISB R1 by using magnets to connect the epaulets to the tunic. Since both uniforms basically use the same tunic that should be possible.

    Jeff,

    Unfortunatly they are not interchangeable. The ISB tunic is more like the ANH Staff tunic where the closure goes straight accross. The Grand Admiral tunics closure goes over the shoulder and ends at the shoulder seam. Love your creativity but unfortunately they have two different style tunics. Let us know if you have any other questions. Good luck.

    Matt

    Matt you are talking about the ISB ANH tunic while Jeff is talking about the ISB R1 tunic. 

     

    The closure of the ANH staff officer and the ISB ANH are not similar. The closure of the ANH staff officer goes up to the shoulder seam similar to the line officer. One of the differences between the two is that the neck closure for the ANH staff officer is at the side and the neck closure of the line officer is in the front.

    I've always thought there was a rod-style cylinder there. Just can't quite make it out. 

    I tried to enhance the size of the object in that guy's right code cylinder pocket. I still have no clue what it is. It does not look like a dosimeter or rod-tyle code cylinder to me.

    I'm in agreement. I like Service Dress.  Hats optional, but are not the preference. 

     

    As for one note with rank, Mr. Crossman stated that Service Dress was previously used in ANH (and G. Erso in R1)... so not just Solo.

     

     

    10 minutes ago, Exaldear said:

    Sounds like the hall walkers in ANH. They had hats.

    I am quite sure that Mr. Crossman was talking about the hall walkers in ANH. They were the only people that wore "Feldgrau" uniforms with regular pants and Chelsea boots. When I saw Galen Erso in the flashback scene for the first time I thought that he was modeled after the hall walkers. The hall walkers wore a hat but Galen Erso and the guys in Solo did not. Due to that, I am OK with having the hat as an optional item.

    I have a question! I have seen "Fahrenheit 451" being using in reference to tunics in various threads! What does it mean?

    The black tunics that were worn by the officers in ANH were borrowed form Bermans. Those tunics were originally used in the British movie Fahrenheit 451 from 1966. The movie was based on the novel Fahrenheit 451 from 1953.

    Your's is probably miles ahead of mine! 

     

    That could be the case. I have actually finished my first version of a uniform. I made it for a Rogue One event in 2016. Unfortunately, it is not approvable. The tunic has princess seams in the front to accommodate my large bust. The skirt part is also too short. I will rework the pattern so that I can use it for the mess uniform.

    Hehe, I'm working on a Navy Trooper, but I will go for a R1 version. Maybe in a future I take your ANH alternative.

     

    BTW, off-topic, did you know in which film appears the NT Dress uniform, regular officer jacket and jodhpurs trousers? ESB? Yesterday I took a quick view of RotJ and I only could appreciate Navy Troopers with jumpsuits...

    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.

    Ok. I didn't research this suit enough to have a solid opinion, so I trust you :-D

    Thanks. I have been researching the tunics that were used in ANH for almost four years now. I really like that style of uniforms. I hope that I will sew well enough someday to get one of these tunics approved by the GMOs of my Garrison. They are very picky when it comes to these uniforms so I will have to practice some more. :-)

    I know you worked a lot on this costume, and I love it. With this proposal I only want to bring some order to the current CRL with a quick update, until we get new ones.

    Maybe we could just update the current one and eliminate from it all references to ANH and ESB, as we know they are incorrect (and some updates on RotJ, like the gauntlet gloves you mention). That will leave us without ANH Warrant Officer for a time, but I'm with you that is better don't have a costume than have a wrong costume.

     

    Edit: On the other hand, I don't like too much the idea of combine ANH Warrant with ANH NT Dress. It's the same thing we have with the Science Officer and the Line Officer Mess Dress. Two identical costumes but different positions or jobs (don't know if the word position is the better one, sorry)

    The warrant officer in ANH has the same job as the Navy Troopers. The one that is seen with two INs and some stormtroopers in the hall scene seems to be the squad leader of those INs. The one that falls down in the stairs in the scene where Han, Luke, and Chewie save Leia is actually wearing a Fahrenheit 451 uniform and riding boots. He just does not have the code cylinders and the rank bar. If you look closely you can see that it is the same stuntman that fell when the other officer got shot at the beginning of that scene.

     

    Here is a thread where Paggeldiwwer and I wrote about this. 

     

    So there is only one real warrant officer in ANH and he is just a Navy Trooper Dress uniform ANH that wears a hat instead of the helmet and does not have a blaster or a holster. This is the guy.

    Ok. So I would like to start moving on to revamping the CRLs, either the name of some as has been suggested or in some cases the actual CRL (I know some people want the navy trooper CRLs worked over). Before then, I want to know, do people want to change the layout, or keep it the same. Do we go with

     

    Republic officers

    High command

    Fleet officers

    ISB

    Navy troopers

    Crewmen

    Imperial officers

    High command

    Fleet officers

    ISB

    Navy troopers

    Crewmen

    First Order officers

    High command

    Fleet officers

    ISB

    Navy troopers

    Crewmen

     

    Or just go with

     

    High command

    Fleet officers

    ISB

    Navy troopers

    Crewmen

     

    And ignore eras?

     

    I think we should ignore eras. The uniforms from the eras are not consistent with the different types of media.

    Taking a look to the CRL while helping a future member of the Spanish Garrison, I could notice the mess some of you told me about this CRL. As today I don't have too much work to do at job (lucky me), I've been working on a possible update. I know some people want to separate this CRL in two, me included, but at least we can use this update for the moment...

     

    As the pictures we have for the jacket are from a regular officer jacket, I propose to use the RotJ variant as main, and take the ANH as the alternative.


    Here it's what I have:
     

    Description: Imperial Warrant Officer
    Prefix: ID
    Detachment: Imperial Officer Corps 
    Context: Star Wars Episodes IV (ANH) and VI (RotJ)

     

     

    Imperial Hat, black
    • Fabric is a medium weight suiting material matching the pants and tunic if applicable.
      • Gabardine style weave is most accurate.
    • Base of the hat is conical, with a crown about 4" (101.6 mm) tall.
    • Front and rear "flaps" overlap on the sides and are about 4" (101.6 mm) high.
    • Front bill extends 3" down, decorated with 5, 6 or 7 concentric stitches.
    • Imperial Code Disk is positioned in the center of the front vertical flap. 

     

    OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
    • Code Disk has a notch detail on the outermost disk.
    OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):
    • Code disk exactly matches screen-used prop.

     

     

    Tunic, Black
    • Fabric should be a medium weight suiting material exactly matching the pants.
      • Gabardine style weave is most accurate.
    • Tunic is double-breasted with a left over right closure on the tapered yoke.
    • Yoke comes up across the shoulder to the top shoulder seam.
    • The standing collar has square corners and is about 1.25" (31.8 mm) tall and closes snugly and includes a modesty panel behind closure. Collar edges are closed with two eye hooks.
    • Sleeves are long, and without decoration, cuffs or buttons, containing 2 seams, one along the bottom and one along the back.
    • Rank bars of any kind are not permitted.
    • The Warrant Officers in ANH wear a uniquely designed tunic with subtle differences that are only seen in ANH. These are identical to ISBs (but black), with the tunic closure straight across from the collar center, not coming up to the shoulder top. Costumers may choose to replicate this design in lieu of the standard officer tunic, but only if doing the ANH Warrant Officer. Warrant Officers in ESB and ROTJ wore regular black officer-style tunics. 

     

    OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
    • There is a dart of about 2" (50.8 mm) in the top center of the yoke.
    • Additionally there is a seam running the entire circumference of the tunic, dividing it along a line hidden by the uniform belt.
    • The back of the tunic has princess seams that run vertically and turns outward to intersect the arm-hole seam at the vertical center.
    OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):
    • Tunic must be secured on the right side by snaps or buttons, not Velcro. There is no topstitching visible anywhere and it must have a lining sewn in.
    • There are no code cylinder pockets the outside panels of the jacket for ANH warrant officers.

     

     

    Belt

    A New Hope Specific Requirements

    Utilizing the following tunic, trousers and boots. No gloves allowed.

     

    Tunic, Black

    • The Warrant Officers in ANH wear a uniquely designed tunic with subtle differences that are only seen in ANH. These are identical to ISBs (but black), with the tunic closure straight across from the collar center, not coming up to the shoulder top. 

      This is going to be a pain in the ass, as we don't have any picture for this tunic. Maybe somebody have one and can take a picture. Also we know this one is not 100% correct, PArmstr made a fantastic research on this, but maybe for now we can keep this version...

      We could also use a copy/paste from ISB ANH tunic.

     

     

    Trousers, black

    • Fabric is a medium weight suiting material exactly matching the tunic and hat.
      • Gabardine style weave is most accurate.
    • Pockets are acceptable, although not visible with the tunic on.
    • Pants are neatly pressed or ironed.
    • Pants smartly rest on the top of the shoes without bunching or giving any sloppy appearance. 

     

     

    Boots
    • Calf high black leather or leather like material.
    • Free of laces, decorative stitching, buckles on the instep or any other embellishments.
    • Boots may have a single adjustment strap at the top outside of the boot, with the buckle no wider than 1".
      • This need not be functional.
    • Zippers on the inside of the boot are acceptable, so long as they are concealed.
      • If the zipper is not covered by vinyl/ leather, it is painted black.
    • German "jack boot" style boots are most canon. 

     

    OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
    • Boots are made of leather.
    OPTIONAL Level three certification (if applicable):
    • Original German jack boots (or “Knobelbechers”) or an authentic replication thereof.
    • Boots have the top adjustment strap.

     

     

    -----------------------------------------------------

     

    For the belt boxes I think we should allow four boxes configurations, at least for RotJ version:

    I would prefer the Warrant officer ROTJ to have its own CRL and to create a combined CRL for the Navy Trooper Dress Uniform ANH and Warrant Officer ANH. Due to the fact that they are basically the same. I already wrote a proposal for that. The latest version was from February 21st, 2018.

     

    Your proposal would be a start but please do not use the wording ISB ANH part of the ISB CRL as a template for the Warrant Officer ANH. The tunics are not similar enough. Please do not try to correct something that is incorrect with something that is also incorrect.

     

    By the way, as far as I can remember none of the Warrant officers in ROTJ wore gauntlet style gloves.

     

    Here my links:

     

    A link about the gloves used in the OT.

     

  20. Yes, the quality of the screen caps is bad. When I pulled them the first time I did not pay enough attention to the quality. They were only 480p. This time I pulled them in 1080p HD. Unfortunately, I still cannot see how many tiles the rank bar has. I can only see that the line officers seem to have long red rank bars. They probably have 6 blue tiles, which should be the rank of army general. The staff officers have long blue rank bars. They probably have 6 blue tiles, which should be the rank of security/stromtrooper general.

    Get it approved by the LMOs is the hardest part, as I have found out in the last months. At least according to what I have been told regarding my CRL proposals.

    Yes, that seems to be the case. I wish our CRL creation and approval process would be more like the one the Rebel Legion uses. I helped to create three CS in the last three months and all of them are already online.
