TKSpartan[Staff] Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 Hi Andreas, looks good, easy pass Trooper. Great Work !! I just can see some dressing issues, like : Some velcro closures in the biceps and thighs that you may want to take care for the approval photos Not sure if it's just a light effect but It looks like your boots are more similar to OT TK? Rogue One Boots OTK Boots And if I can give a tip to prevent tour shins from twisting when walk, What I did with my Anh Tk is just to place a Velcro Piece in front of the boot and the Shin internal section like the photos. That made the trick Good luck with your approval Sir. Quote
Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 7, 2020 Author Report Posted July 7, 2020 Thank you TKSpartan. I thought, white coloured Chelsea Boots would go for the basic approval? I´ll give your idea fixing the shins with velcro a try. Thanks for the hint. TBH I didn´t pay enough attention to the velcros on the biceps and tigh. I hope this will not be a reason not to get the approval Quote

Let's see the result. Good Luck mate!! Quote
Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 7, 2020 Author Report Posted July 7, 2020 I´m really excited. I hope there will be an event in my area soon, where I can meet some members of the GG. 1 Quote
Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 7, 2020 Author Report Posted July 7, 2020 Just at this moment, I received an answer to my approval. Some little things have to be tweaked, or I should take better Fotos. It´s coming along 1 Quote

Once approved, (I know you got this ), and waiting for an event, you can train at home wearing your armor and walk around and take note of any adjustment needed, practice mobility, visibility and in general get used to be a Trooper I made this before my first trooping , walking for 30, 45 minutes for a couple of days.

That´s what I´m doing, when I´m alone. One day, it was Fathers day over here, I walked the whole day up and down my driveway. It was fun to see the reactions of people driving by. Even the Police stopped and asked for a foto. 1 Quote

TKSpartan[Staff] Posted July 7, 2020 Report Posted July 7, 2020 When you receive your tk id you may want to post in this section New Approved TK, so everyone knows you're a new Legion Trooper. Also you can request Stormtrooper Status Here 1 Quote

Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 7, 2020 Author Report Posted July 7, 2020 I fixed the flaws mentioned by the GMO so far. Not much to do Only one thing drives me crazy. I can´t really move my head down. My chestplate doesn´t stay down. What can I do to keep it down? I already cut it on the neckside to make more room, but it didn´t really help. Quote

Hi, I'm not a R1 armor expert, but looking some building threads and references, what I think can work could be: 1- Afix the Chest tho the Ab and kidney section plate using Velcro ? or 2-To lengthen back the shoulder bridges, (I'm not sure if they can move) and this allows the chest and back to down a bit (maybe 1 inch or 2). Note: When in armor, it's not easy to move your head freely, to see down you need to bend on and side movement is limited. Hope this can help or a least give you a tip . Cheers 1 Quote
Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 8, 2020 Author Report Posted July 8, 2020 Thanks, Mario. I worked yesterday on my armor, and finally I´m satsified with the result. I openend the neck cutout a bit for more movement, tweaked the helmet also. New fotos are made. Approval should be in sight. 1 Quote
Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 8, 2020 Author Report Posted July 8, 2020 For my liking it´s good. Movement is also a bit better. 1 Quote

Roukie 1[TK] Posted July 10, 2020 Author Report Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Looking through the CRL I stumbled upon a sentence, I don´t understand it´s meaning. The abdomen plate detail has two horizontal bevel details cut-out along the top. What does it mean? I´m prepairing my armor for level 3 Edited July 10, 2020 by Roukie 1 Quote
Sly11[Admin] Posted July 10, 2020 Report Posted July 10, 2020 I believe that is an error and is on the list of corrections that need to be made. i think it pertains to the two vertical groves in the ab plate Horizontal is the incorrect wording. You should not have any problem with this as it is not correct 1 Quote
