Do you have side left side right and back photos. Also agree the raised details on the shoulder present?

Shoulder bells have the raised detail, as I have seen the pictures on his FB page. I have asked RC if he could post the whole set of pictures here, for the rest of the detachment's reference. Amazing execution from my perspective, but I leave it onto others to take a look and make up their minds.

Good Day,

Upon looking at this on a computer vs my Phone, I can see a few items that come to my attention.
From the pictures you have The details on the shoulder appear to be missing. The flight suit appears to be baggy in the arms. This can be fixed by tucking the material into the bracers. The belt appears to be missing the grooved detailing on the top and bottom. If you could send the picture of the left right and back side of the costume we can help assist you with the final details. I will be putting up game model details with in the next few days.

Forgive me if this is an ignorant questionbut I am curious, should the shadowguards helmet sit so high (the shoulder flourishes on the helmet are not sitting on the shoulder as it would be for a royal)?

Kelya Thats the nature of the Guard helmet. It is the only helmet in the entire saga that actually goes all the way down to the shoulders. So when you place armor on and then put the helmet on top you get a slightly raised section. It something that we do not defer an applicant.

I do enjoy t following your WIP from the point as I start to help out my sister to do a Shadow Guard Costume. Great work so far!
I would like to see some more detailed pics of your backside and the the left and right side aswell if possible.
I do like the shape of your bucket(for approval not required at the current CRLs) BUT as a request for my personal interest . The bucket seems to fit to high, maybe you wear some sort of padding under it. It should fit as closed as possible to the front armour. Besides the fact the bucket is blocked by the armour.
Your jumpsuit looks good to me. I still waiting for some meaningful pics, I´m not sure it was Stephen or some one else, wanted to share some. The jumpsuits that are proposed to use for the Shadow Guard Costumes, like the work wear one, all seems to be to baggy for use without customize. Not only at the arms.
The kama could be a bit longer to end in mid or to end at the end of knees.
About the belt, it´s a detail figured out that the grooved details are missing. The current CRLs says “should” have incised lines”…”from top and bottom. Enough place for interpretation to require or not. This part of CRL has to be clarified. Compared with canon character costumes like Officers and Tie Pilots use to have the same belt it´s even not mentioned to have these lines at the belt even if they are clearly visiable especially at blue ray screen shots.
My personal opinion is, it´s a detail BUT a detail that the belt has to have and clearly mentioned at the CRLs( not only for Shadow Guards).

The wording of anything that uses the would "should" could be replaced with the word "needs" to help lession the confusion. The word can have many different context so I can see where this NEEDS (should) be changed in the wording to lesson this.

On a side note to lessen repetitive pictures of costume parts shared with common imperial uniforms the CRL Team at the legion created sub spurts of wording that could be put into the visual crls. Examples would be Jack Boots - Officer Belt - Officer Boots - Weapons

Here is the side shot. And I do plan on making another belt with the groove. Time was running out to submit in time for celebration. Also the only way to lower the helmet anymore is by shortening my neck at this point. I only have a piece of foam that's pretty much the thickness of cardboard in it.

I think the helmet looks fine from that perspective.
