Not at the moment. My boots at the moment have a seam down the front and back and there's a zip for the back seam. This won't be approved? Because a friend of mine had his Imperial Officer approved quite recently with the same boots.

The boots in your picture are not 501st approvable.

Ah, alright, understood!

Question to other Shadow Guards, did you buy your undersuit or had it tailored?

Aite. I got some updates :D
I went to the paintball shop earlier to pick up my elbow pads and I went to the art shop in the mall nearby and found a material I'd like to experiment with. I must say it worked quite well!

What did you get, foamboard?

Where are you located? I work at a plastic distributor and end up with drops of ABS, Foamcore, Dibond (aluminum top and bottom with a plastic core, it can be scored), Sintra, etc....


Nevermind....I see you are in Asia....you may be able to find someone local with scraps though...

Nah, the elbow pads are for paintball, not for this costume.

I'm in Malaysia. These cost like US$2 for an A2 sheet. And nope, not foamboard, PVC Foam. It's one thin layer of compressed foam sandwiched between two layers of thicker PVC
