pben reacted to kman in Staff Officer (black uniform) Update
I don't disagree with the "approximately" language (and it's there), but do bear in mind that the push buttons are actually NOT manufactured to Imperial (ha!) measurements, so these aren't simply simple imperial measurements that were run through a conversion site... the imperial sizes are far worse. The specifications are just absurdly precise because that's how they roll, for major industrial manufacturing. The imperial numbers provided are VERY much "approximate". The metric sizes are actually the precise ones. (Or should be... @lantern2745 @Hask I can't remember, were those measurements pulled from the actual buttons sizes, or is this old carry-over info that everyone assumes was checked? LOL) There's just not a round number in sight, here.
EAO, the company that makes the pushbuttons, is actually Swiss company. The material data sheets providing the sizes of the pushbuttons are ONLY given in Metric sizes. For instance, there are the OT buttons:

And here are the new Rogue One-sized buttons:

The RS Buttons used in the UK are similar:

I can agree to the push buttons dimensions but please bare in mind that push buttons made in countries that follow the metric rule maybe don't have 3,2mm but wil have 3mm, 4mm or 5mm as the depth example. So I suggest as is also present in mostly IOC CRLs that the term - Approximately - should be used.

However, I still think the circle on top is too big, which would need to be altered. That would almost certainly fix the problem

Sorry this is taking so long. I've been swamped by Darth Real Life. I am going to try and look at this submission this week or the weekend. Apologies again.
Cheers,

Excellent. Thank you!!
I am quite busy at this time, but I will try and look at this sometime this week. In the meantime, I have moved this to the Active area. Thank you for your patience.

I am going to move this submission to the Withdrawn section. If you want to reactivate it, you can post the required photos here. It would be a good idea to use the @ symbol to tag the current Deployment officer.

pben reacted to TexScout in Staff Officer (black) CRL Update to R1 specifications
I realize this thread hasn't been updated in a bit, but am just trying to help...:)
As I just posted about this in a recent thread of my own--related to this topic--I thought the following might help anyone with planning/this CRL plotting.
While doing another deep dive re-watching of R1 tonight, I captured the following screenies. After re-watching Solo, too, I captured black uniformed officers in both boots and straight pants (as someone asked about earlier in this thread), and can provide those screenies, if needed.
Stefan posted in the OP:
"MerrSonn Power5 Blaster – No Staff Officer in Rogue One is seen with a blaster or holster, not sure if it should be removed or if we still allow Blasters"
That bit is also touched on under holster and the DH17 mention.
Photos (I have larger versions available, should anyone need them):
Screenies I took tonight:
SE-14r blaster, in holster (later given to K-2SO by Jyn), on at least one "staff" officer (black uniform--one of the same guys posted about throughout this thread) in Rogue One. You have to play/pause rather quickly to catch this in this scene.
Like I said, just trying to help.

That would probably be the easiest solution.

pben reacted to Mac in Staff Officer (black) CRL Update to R1 specifications
I think just keep the helmet a optional item

pben reacted to kman in Cosplaysky
I wouldn't recommend it. Lots of companies have stolen CosplaySky's photos over the years. Not necessarily the same company, and not necessarily made to the same spec. I would ONLY buy directly from CosplaySky.

A note about their flightsuits, they are approvable but do require some work to get it there. For example, the compad window is too small and will need to be widened. Some others have had to remove some pockets and put them in the appropriate places. Not difficult, but requires some minor work.

Yeah I know what you mean, but I do not really want to ruin my brand new Trenchcoat when I get it

@bjsavage7 you have one of these started right? What did you use for... things?
As for them being good or bad, they arrest the "good guys". That's "bad" enough for me!

Congrats! Just a couple of ideas: Don't use the belt with the inside overlapping, like a standard trousers belt and don't get yourself an armor. Buy instead a light grey overall and you've got an IOC Scanning Crew AND an ACD AT-ST Driver

Awesome, Matthew! Now slap some armor and a bucket on that uniform and head on over to the Armored Cavalry Detachment! The Empire can use a few more AT-AT Commanders.
