    Tonydragon reacted to SNK in Officer - Mimban Lieutenant CRL Update Proposal   
    He’s not - and I don’t really consider either of those images a good reference for this purpose - neither of them are wearing armor in this picture - they are just in standard uniforms with trench coats.
     
    I also don’t recall the Commander on screen or being mentioned in the novel - I’d have to skim it again though to be sure.

    Tonydragon got a reaction from Stormystormtrooper in Officer - Mimban Lieutenant CRL Update Proposal   
    It doesn't look to me as though Xodell is wearing the "Mimban Officer" uniform.  I don't think he has a breastplate for a start.  He seems to be more the standard line officer with optional trench coat.

    Tonydragon reacted to bjsavage7 in TLJ Police   
    My point is that some people are so wrapped around where a costume will go, less focus is put on making it a good costume. It's a cool uniform and I like it. It's not military (some folks don't know there's a difference between a police officer and a military officer), but I have no objection of it being here, and I encourage anyone to post WIPs here if they want. I am actually kind of surprised its been this long after TLJ has been out that no one has sparked much interest about it here. Of course, IOC is a great place to host it and share resources for it so no issue there.

    Tonydragon reacted to bjsavage7 in Detachment for Mudtrooper Officer CRL   
    I would never dissuade anyone from trying to do this, but the amount of work, expertize, resources, time, and effort is vastly underestimated by the general public. Is it possible? You bet. Will it be easy? Nope. Until someone takes the genuine initiative to get the ball rolling, it's easier to place costumes under the roof of whoever is willing to be a good steward.
     
    New costumes don't always match up well well with where they are placed, but with the number of new potential costumes getting pumped out from every new movie, tv show, comic, ect these days, it's getting harder just to get a costume made accurately and a CRL complete for it in a timeframe that would please everyone, much less place it under a detachment that will please everyone.  But we try.

    And since they haven't (I still say they WON'T) ever produced a finished product, or an updated photo of the subsequent prototype that they said was in the works way back at Celebration in Orlando I think we can safely assume it's still tea colored.
    Heck, since they've done literally nothing to earn good will within the community, I'd be looking for a refund before they close up shop.

    Some wore DH-17s with a holster, but not the guy in the detention block  
     

     

     
    And you can just make out the pointy silver shaft in this image, which has a left sided holster

    Tonydragon reacted to FilthyPierre in Navy Trooper Dress CRL (E-11 versions)   
    I would like to suggest that for the Navy Trooper Dress the CRL, for the E-11 specifically, that it read ANH E-11 with power cylinders and counter for version one and ESB E-11 without power cylinders or counter for version 2. Promo E-11 with greeblies also acceptable for version 2.
    Version 3 and 4 no change suggested.
     
    Thanks.

    So I was browsing elsewhere on the forums and came across this thread that seems to say that the Solo and R1 Officers don’t have notches in the disc.

    Is there a close up photo to justify the notch in the Mimban Officer cap - or was that taken from one of the other CRLs?

    I merely reacted to the argument already presented, my point being exactly what you've said. There are people with differing opinions aobut all sorts of things, and this isn't the place. We should be aware that it's not some universal truth.

    If you're always going to be wearing the gauntlets then you can sew a small hoop of elastic on the cuff near the seam.  This then goes over your thumb and stops the sleeve bunching up.  I have this on my Biker Scout and TK undersuit and works well.

    Tonydragon reacted to kman in Who's the highest ranked officer to wear Black?   
    If Rebels is the only known instance of a black staff officer wearing a double row rank bar, perhaps the next update should add such a restriction to the black staff officer CRL (regular and 451).  If a CRL for a Rebels Staff Officer is ever drafted, it could be allowed there.  But I'm of the opinion that since there is no such reference for the film version of the costume, we should hold Staff Officers to single bar ranks, even for basic.

    Mistakes and mixed up armor or not, it's on screen and considered Canon.  What cannot be done is point to BF sources as reference for any other costume.  BUT there's no reason a BF-specific costume can't be created and referenced directly as being *that* specific version of the character.  Much like the Heavy Weapons Trooper variant of the Stormtrooper, which doesn't exist anywhere other than BF.
