    pben reacted to xAlpha in CRL suggestion Seperate "Rogue One ISB-Officer"   
    I agree they should be separate CRLs.
     
    The bridge crew has a breakdown at the bottom of which options are for which films, and while I feel like that does the job, even there I could see it being split out.

    If the shore troopers can have 3 separate CRLs why not every other costume!

    pben reacted to captsafe66 in CRL announcement.   
    Hi there everyone.
     
    I just want to make a quick announcement about the CRL process.  Since we have a new LMO rep this year and a New LMO in charge of the LMO office, there will be a brief delay in any updates for new CRL being finalized or published.  Hopefully by mid March, things will be up and running.  However, that doesn't mean the preliminary work in this forum needs to stop.
     
    Thanks for all the great input.

    pben reacted to lantern2745 in Admiral Kassius Konstantine (Rebels) CRL WIP   
    In this thread I will be crafting a CRL for Admiral Kassius Konstantine from Star Wars: Rebels.
    I will be drawing heavily from the approved CRL for Governor Arinda Pryce, and wish to thank @eliste, @Walker, @Talulabelle and @nocternus for being instrumental in getting that project up and running.
     
    From the Wookieepedia entry (Found HERE.);
    Kassius Konstantine was a human male Admiral in the Imperial Navy.

Yoke comes up across the shoulder to the top shoulder seam. The standing collar has square corners and is approximately 1.25" (31.8 mm) tall. Collar closes snugly without visible fasteners and includes a modesty panel behind closure. Collar is adorned with two solid black triangular rank insignia. Collar edges are closed with two eye hooks. There are code cylinder pockets on both outside panels of the jacket from about half way between the top and bottom on the arm hole. Sleeves are long, and without decoration, cuffs or buttons. Princess seams in the back of the tunic can be acceptable, although not required. Tunic is constructed with no top-stitching (stitches visible on the exterior surface of fabric)

    The LMOs can figure out where this costume belongs, I'd be happy with an official CRL no matter where they decide to put it.

    Hello!  Friendly neighborhood LMO here
     
    I have a punchlist of CRL work going with IOC Staff that I keep updated.  I thought it would be beneficial for the detachment members at large to see the sorts of things we have completed, are working on, and are planning to work on.
     
    I will keep both threads updated, and notify when updates occur

    pben got a reaction from Mac in Imperial Officer battle armor   
    I've made some research on this CRL because its on my shortlist  You have to use the rank as the character - General. The tiles are glued to the armor. I also have two armor and helmet makers in my files. Be carefull because there are some differences between Veers helmet and the AT-ST driver. It's not exactly the same. If you still need the info drop me a message.
     
    Skelitor120 gave a good advice. It's better to hyperspace into the Armored Cavalry forum.
