    I would also recommend keeping the draft in line with the other non-saga costumes.
    Items which are the same should have the same text if appropriate.

    PLUS, honestly, the only real outlier here is the ANH tunic. ANH has both straight leg and jodhpurs to set precedent already. 
    I know I'm preaching to the choir here. 
    Following your logic, we:
    -preserve V1 and V2.
    -Give V3 its own Non Saga CRL, and make V1 jodhpurs, and V2 straight leg/chelsea boots.

    With this final bit of information, we've decided with the rest of the LMO team that this costume now has enough references to be build into a CRL

    Hello IOC.
    I was contacted today and LFL have finally come back to us with info on the Sith Eternal.  The back of the tunic is a straight cut, not pleated, and there are two vertical seams on the back all the way down to the bottom edge of the tunic similar to the FOSB.

    There is indeed!
    Interfacing is what you want. Although I have not yet attempted this on my WampaWear kit. 
    I believe there used to be a thread about applying interfacing somewhere here, or perhaps someone else could chime in with more info on how this is done.

    It’s just a regular white dress shirt. Just make sure the collar isn’t substantially taller than your jacket collar

    Easy enough - locking rank bar. I don't think we have any issues w/ the Rebel rank bar description from Pryce, so I'm just going to lock it and move on if no objections. The only thing I tweaked are the first two bullets, which I lifted from the Imperial Military Officer CRL.
     
    Code Cylinders
    Between 1 to 4 Code Cylinders per costume may be worn.
    No more than 2 code cylinders per pocket.
    Modified Silver "chalk holder" tube with a short clip and blue top. Dosimeter Style: True Dosimeter with correct clip and Blue top. Clip is silver in color. OPTIONAL Level two certification (if applicable):
    Must be Rebels style code cylinder with correct Rebels style clip and blue caps.

    Also, no lvl 3 requirements, I don't think. The real-world uniforms have lining but, we don't have proofs of that for the Rebel officers!

    Hello everyone.
    I’m Shaun and I’ve been fairly active here at the IOC for a while now so I’ve probably interacted with many of you already.  
    I’ll be Daisy’s 2nd here as reps from the LMO team for this term. 
    My biggest focus is growing the Legion. More costumes and more people wearing them! More Star Wars is good Star Wars!

    Hello everyone, I’m Daisy from the Dutch Garrison and together with Shaun I have been assigned as your LMO team for this term.

    About Me:
    My name is Daisy van Rijn, and this is my first term as a 501st  Legion Membership Officer. I’ve been in the Underworld Detachment Command for the three previous terms. I have six approved 501st costumes, four in the Rebel Legion and I have three unfinished 501st costumes that are waiting for the right weather or parts. I have been sewing since I was 19 and love sharing that acquired knowledge with others.

    What is an LMO? 
    The Legion Membership Team is responsible for reviewing and processing applications for membership, and maintaining and updating member information in the Legion database. The Legion Membership Officers 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 member’s costumes. Have a question about membership these are the folks to talk to!  
     
    There are LMOs you can contact at any time at Legion Officers however Shaun and I are the ones who are assigned to the Imperial Officer Corps this term. 
     
    Thinking of starting a NTTL (New to the Legion) Costume?
    Please message the Detachment and me here as well as send a link to your build thread. I love researching new costumes and helping. 
    Worried a costume may or may not be eligible for the Legion approval? https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CRLGuide See Character Approval
    and New to the Legion Costumes (NTTL) sections for details.

    For “New to the Legion” costumes please also have a look here:
    Costuming Standards
    Have a question?  Do not hesitate to message me. Get your references together and sent to  LMO (at) 501st (dot) com.

    shadan reacted to sundancekat in Admiral Rampart   
    For example, the ISB CRL states the following for the tunic:
     
     
    This tunic is somewhat infamous for being difficult to fit on any body that isn't a tube, since the lack of front princess seams makes it difficult to fit on a body with breasts or a trim waist, etc.  IIRC the originals didn't have back princess seams either because they were quickly made for a couple of background extras. We've made an allowance in our standards to account for the fact that bodies other than trim cylinder body types may want to wear this tunic, and fitting seams help make a tunic fit less like a sack on diverse body types.  Why not do the same here?
  22. Like
    shadan reacted to sundancekat in Admiral Rampart   
    I agree with the tailor's assessment.  Making a tunic fitted to look like the reference images without having any back seams (either using princess seams, center back seam, or just darts) is challenging, unless the body wearing the tunic is shaped like a cylinder.  You can take a little waist fullness out of the side seams to narrow the waist, but that will only go so far.  Without seams or darts you're still going to have fullness in the back and it will look blousey, like a tucked in dress shirt, which is definitely not what these uniforms look like.
     
    While I'm definitely for making the costume look as accurate to the source material as possible, it can be a challenge with animated characters that don't have to exist in reality and are often drawn more simply for whatever reason. In this case it may be necessary to allow princess seams in the CRL...not to require their use, or prevent them from being used, but to leave it open to the individual similar to how some of our other officer CRLs don't require or prohibit them (at least not for L1).  Perhaps some language in the CRL specifying that "princess seams may be used on the back to allow for a proper fit"?

    I certainly agree. Rampart has another kind of trousers in comparison to the other officers. He also has another tunic and another kind of boots. I'll look into adding the screen shots asap. Getting that new tunic is a bit tricky to make according to my tailor.

    Looking good @RobinKrennicDutch and @7959!
    I think we should look into getting some higher res screen grabs if possible. Also paying particular attention to anything that’s different to other officers. This will be to see if we can justify a unique CRL for Rampart, hopefully we can!
    Then we can start with the wording of the CRL text which members can discuss and refine before we create the ‘Finalising CRL Proposal’ thread.
