This is a wise consideration, not only for the sharpness of a resin print but the details are pretty darn accurate. -

When we re evaluated the program, yes, it was expanded to capture assistance to getting new troopers into armour as well. Single point. Additional points are earned for assisting to EI level, aiding in climbing the ladder faster, improving the upgrade numbers to EI, and further embodying the Troopers helping troopers mantra. -

Hi Skylar The Gaskets are fine for both basic approval and our next level up Expert Infantry. They are PVC not rubber, which is the requirement for our level 3 Centurion. As it stands, the DN ready to wear armour is not out of the box 501st approvable. It has several pieces that are separate which need to be joined using ABS paste needs scrap ABS that is the same white as your armour (no need for painting but does need sanding and polishing) or Bondo then the armour painted. There are side seams not allowed, and there are the joins across the top of the shoulder areas also not allowed as per the CRL, which is what you should be following to gain 501st approval. Looks like you have most of the parts needed and are on your way. Just make sure you ordered the TFA armour to match the TFA helmet you have. Some of the parts are different between them and the TLJ FO TK https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:TK_-_First_Order
