Barclay's TFU Royal Guard Build

[Barclay]

Started my TFU Royal Guard Build a little while ago.

Armor is all from Walt

Been trying to color match and think I have found a good one to match the fabric

All pieces are now ready for the final sanding on the edges before primer...

Still looking for a Saber Pike as I feel all TFU Royal Guards really need one.....

The Joy of Color Matching (Settled on D as being the best choice over all in each different lighting)

Question

I see a number of pics on line of the TFU Royal Guard with just a red quarter staff, along with pictures with the force pike.
Is the red staff correct for the costume?

thanks

Weapon is not mandatory for approval. Technically, it should be a saber pike. Do you have a pic of what you saw?

Btw, good job on cutting the spats the proper way. I'm a bit concern on the forearm bracers thought. There should not be a square ''step'' at the elbow. Plus, having that sharp edge will poke into your arm.

Thanks

The arm will be trimmed up once sizing is complete (can always take more off, harder to add on)

Will try to post a pic of what I am seeing....
