    What is an LMO?
    The Legion Membership Team are responsible for reviewing and processing applications for membership, and maintaining and updating member information in the Legion database. The Legion Membership Officer drives costume policies, including acceptable costume types for membership and setting standards for costume submissions, and are the final arbiter of member costume issues and approvals. The Legion Membership Officer supervises and advises Detachments, Garrison Membership Liaisons, and Garrison Web Liaisons on any questions or issues they may have with members costumes. Have a question about membership these are the folks to talk to!

    About Me
    My name is Dawn Bright and I am the LMO for the 501st Legion,  ALMO with the Rebel Legion,  I have previously served as XO of the Flagship Eclipse (501st) and the Senatorial Detachment (RL), GML of Southern California Garrison and a Legion Costume Judge (LCJ) for the Rebel Legion. I love making costumes (with an emphasis on EU and new to the legion), I have almost 60 (RL/501) Legion approved costumes.
    In my normal day to day life I am an Administrator of a care home for developmentally delayed adults in independent and inclusive living situations in sunny Southern California. I work with family's and social workers to establish communication between what the families and residents want for themselves to feel productive and able and I institute success for people in need.
    I'm a people person  and as an LMO I put members first and foremost. People like you with passion for the costumes in this Detachment. We are all volunteers who have spent hundreds of dollars or/and hundreds of hours making costumes. I promise you that you will be treated with respect and deserve honest and efficient results. 
     I look forward to serving you and working with this fine Detachment
     
    About the Team
     
    Michael Capell CT/SL/ID-3037 Timberline Garrison
    Michael has been an LMO and on the LMO Team for about a decade. He has done many things in the Legion since his wife told him she was joining and that he needed to as well. He has been the SLD Webmaster for ten years, as well as (over the years) been a GXO, GML, GWL, and GEC. He specializes in Clones, EU / Legends, Sith Lord costumes, and helping people where he can. He’s looking forward to another term helping expand our Costume Reference Library. 

    Blair Douglas ID-12266 Midwest Garrison
    Blair is new to the LMO team but has served as a liaison for unity for the clubs for many years. She has LMO experience with the Rebel Legion and has led an effort in the RL around costume approval reform with a concentration on maintaining quality, improving consistency, and making approvals attainable.  Her experience will help us address some of the current pain points within the 501st system. An additional bonus is that Blair is a lead software engineer by day helping to provide Fortune 500 companies technical solutions for their business needs. Her professional experience will also help us assess the current state of the systems supporting costume approvals and help to figure out how to improve them to facilitate a more positive costume approval experience. Fun fact Blair plays bass in the band Soft Speaker, extra fun fact she paid her way through college playing bass in a U2 tribute band and her nickname was Madame Clayton.
    Kris Kobus ID-33633 United Kingdom Garrison
    Kris is new to LMO but has held positions such as XO and DCA for the IOC and Events administrator for his Garrison where he is also a Officer costume adviser. Kris is a workaholic and does not believe in sleep so is usually always available no matter the time zone.

    Brian Anderson TK-7602 New England Garrison
    Brian has been the LMO team lead previously. He was one of the driving forces of Detachment empowerment and pushed for CRL changes. Brian has been on local staff and Detachment level staff for many years and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. Brian is known as the “make it look like the picture!” guy when it comes to standards and truly embraces current Legion culture.

    Eric Brager  TK-9674 New England Garrison  
    Eric was the lead LMO for the 501st Legion two terms from 2015 to 2017. He has twice been elected FISD Detachment Leader and has held a number of garrison level command positions in the 501st Legion
    We are so very excited to work with you guys! One thing I love so much about Detachments is the love for new CRLs and the passion. Both of which are very near and dear to my heart. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the Detachment or LMO team.
    I prefer messages Here or to LMO@501st.com  that way I keep record of them and can tag appropriate parties
    Thank you and have a nice day,

    Where are the best places/stores/ on line sellers to find those items?

    For the vast majority of 501st CRLs weapons are optional. This is because for many Troops weapons are prohibited by organizers or local laws.
     
    I’m sure there will be a list of acceptable, optional side arms that can go with this CRL, but they usually aren’t required for submission.

    I've finally got the armor in hand, it's assembled and just needs a third touch up coat of paint, and to be weathered.
     
    Once I can get Tapatalk to work again (which has been down), i'll get some photos posted of the completed armor.
     
    Still waiting on my Trench Coat. which will finish off my kit.
     
    I'm going to be out of town after the Thanksgiving Holiday for about 3 weeks, so unless the coat comes before I leave, I won't be able to submit my final full photos for this new CRL till Mid-December

    For sure - I am a longtime member of The Royal Manticoran Navy - this would not be my first rodeo with Cosplaysky - got to the point where we had to contract with a separate company to make our uniforms because CPS was getting way to inconsistent. Personally Ive not had a problem with them - but I know to send them EVERY measurement I can possibly take - lol.

    But that is good to know - I wont derail the thread anymore and go back to lurking.
    I do know that you only order the trousers and the tunic though. Ill order extra fabric and have Tiggwolf make me the cap.

    Got the belt today from Anovos - and picked up the goggle from an etsy seller (who also does the chest armor apparently).

    Thanks for the quick reply - this will be my first Star Wars cosplay - been meaning to do this for a while - but the standard Imperial Officer seemed so boring - the Mimban officers have much more "curb appeal" if that makes any sense - lol.
