No, you still build away and post up pics here. When you're done submit it to your Garrison's GML. They will then submit it to a special section on the main boards for approval.
Correct a build thread here is good, the Detachment staff and LMO can see it, when ready get photos to your GML as noted and they will post to the Legion GML boards. With detachment staff and GML on board the LMO (me or an associate) will clear the costume.

Will be interesting to hear the approving officers take on your colouring - the helmet looks to be a totally different shade of red, almost crimson, to that of the kama. Or are you planning on repainting when you do the rest of the armour?

How are you, and others for that matter, doing the forearm pieces? I think they need to be fully sealed with no seams, right? I guess they have to be made big enough to go over the gloves...
