If it means wavy then Detachment Command obviously missed the part where there is a flat chested Royal Guard in ROTJ.
I've said this in prior discussions, and implementing it before there is an actual set way of actually achieving this is rather like putting the horse before the cart. Some have tried it and had limited successes but there is really no set way of doing this and we do not have the set way they achieved this, as Gruff pointed out, with SOME not all of the guards. Really think we should work out HOW to get that so all CAN do it before we start saying you must. I mean we also have issue of how this will look too with someone with an actual chest (female) cause I can tell you, put waves on my wife's and its going to look terrible.

I will also say after having a year long issue with the wife's boots and trying to get them right from Imperial Boots, I still think there's a bit of issue with readily being able to get the boots.

All for getting more screen accurate don't get me wrong, but would prefer if we could have a SET WAY of doing this "wave/waterfall" effect before we demand it be done. Though we do as Gruff has said have pics of flat chested guard too.

Due to election time i will ask to leave this thread in a pause mode.
I will not lock it like i was adviced because everybody here is mature enough to leave it alone until elections are done.
Only after elections we will know who will be Detachment staff and who will be LMO then.
Thanks for your understanding.

Like some people here, I was caught out by the changes too.....already had my boots, gloves and helmet.....

Having larger feet, (you know what they say about guys with big feet lol) it has been near on a nightmare looking for boots. Imperial boots only go up to au size 10. And the boots on AliExpress dont have a pointed toe...so dont cut it and non approved in my garrison.

So Ill be going for an AotC (probably my least favorite star wars movie) TR....the only major difference appears to be the boots and 2 slits :tr:
