Looking at your shoulders brings up a question, Is that vertical strip going to be added to the CRL since we received the high rez images that show one there? or are the smooth scout trooper shoulders still just as good?

I discussed this very topic with my outposts GML. He said that my bells are acceptable as long as they were TK's which they are & cut in the appropriate duckbill style. So there shouldn't be a problem unless the CRL clarifies at a later point. :tr:

The vertical stripe will be added to the CRL as a mandatory component to the shoulder bells.

Could you get a front back side shot of the uniform. Over all good for a practice run. There are a few details that are missing along with a few tweeks.

Some things that pop out in these photos that need to be addressed before approval...

1. The Ab plate never sits below the belt
2. The Ab plate shape is not consistent
3. The Ab plate cannot have rivets on it
4. The "pant" legs are oversized and bunched, this is not approvable. The same applies to the bunching of the upper suit around the Ab plate.
5. The shoulder detail is missing
6. The forearms are not seamless as is required
7. The duckbill shape of the shoulders is not pronounced enough. The cuts on the sides should be deeper.

It's getting there but does still need some work. Please post up full 360 degree photos so we can make sure everything is up to the CRL standards before being sent through to the GML as these changes will be flagged on the peer review.
