The ribs should be just about 1/4" wide (just slightly less if possible).

The pattern that I used was the Simplicity 8705. It's basically a lightweight running jacket. I moved the zipper from the front to the back of the neck and shortened it a bit. It'll be hidden by the helmet and the neck area of the back armor anyway. I also removed the addition of the arm pocket. I suggest making part of the main body out of a lightweight fabric that breathes well. Anything in the main body that is hidden by the chest and back armor should be lightweight and breathable. This jacket gets very hot since it's made out of vinyl (or leather) and the only real place for heat to escape if from your head which is then inside a helmet. It's a bit warm even when it's cool out. If you want to go for accuracy on the sleeves try to stick with the pattern of ribs and stitching below. You don't need to have the wrist zippers but you can if you like as long as they are hidden.

I'm not sure I completely understand your question but I'll try to answer. The holster is indeed 2 pieces. The main body (the part next to the boot) and the section that wraps around the blaster itself to hold it in place (blaster cover). The blaster cover fits into a slot on the main body on one side and is usually riveted to the main body on the other side. I think the part that you're wondering is about the area where the blaster cover is riveted and meets the main body. This is probably the clearest shot of the inside of the holster without the blaster.

Mine is closer to the orange as well.

Good luck on your journey. You've made the right choice picking one of the Scout armors. We all take great pride in this detachment (and forum). If you need any help along the way just give us a shout.

I have a fabric pattern but it's fit for my size. I don't have the exact dimensions right now (on vacation) but I'm 5'10 and around 150lbs. Are you anywhere near that range? If not I can direct you to the base pattern that we used and how we modified it to work for this costume. The biggest issue that you're going to run into is finding a matching fabric. The ribbed vinyl fabric that I used is longer in production. It's possible to make ribbed fabric by hand but it does take a bit of skill and a lot of patience. The ribbing needs to be about 1/4" with minimal stitching lines between the ribs.

My baton is leather straps like this. It works great to hold the baton, but once I pull mine out I find it almost impossible to snap it back in place because of mobility issues and gloves. It's a good thing that it's mostly ornamental and I rarely use it.

PM me and I'll send you a link.

Yes, after Galactic Armory made adjustments to the files earlier this year they will meet Lvl 1 requirements if finished properly (sanding filling etc.)

The helmet looks great but ultimately your build is really spot on and works really well with all the pieces. Great work.

I think they were these pants below, but just about any white "chef" pants would work the same. This pant style made it easy enough to find a matching fabric to make the padded sections. https://www.amazon.com/Chef-Designs-Mens-Pant-White/dp/B00DIA70XO/ref=sr_1_8?crid=1EBN8GIB37NI0&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.KMeFFmyxELPcuw3aqmirzTlbElImq5qnxOMENuPmnVcXN55Nsa9ATu8ume66hPvjJsrJOFaWKoST1lDH9vj1GCviR93pTWV4-qABtVrPor6Th6VwS1VUth1M26H5LMps_wysVz6dPLz1KzhlOGXB1iwMhPrTFlnJl-UIYY67NZ35DSXkCqVw8esdYplgVFCp_cZfrNSnBxiMuS-JS7BJFOFdtUTpiRzI5RzNH-7HhHsrH1LUm4AfpZjJM_qmSHopSxtUncO07NsHyqNR_s5Ri35dBJ8jGLpuBWfulI9_41A.vC60DwAseLVz2bEP4Zv6hOBiRineDZMqQSuE0h5DJlg&dib_tag=se&keywords=white+work+pants&qid=1720794635&sprefix=white+work+pants%2Caps%2C152&sr=8-8

Here's a link to the refence photos of the shield if anyone needs them. JFO Shield Reference Photos.zip

Since everyone was looking for just the Staff and Shield files. Here you go. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-models/hobby-diy/other/jedi-fallen-order-scout-and-patrol-trooper-staff-and-shield Let me know if we need to move this link.

Message me and we can work something out. Before this new PT CRL revision there wasn't a reason to offer the baton or riot shield separately from the JFO Scout, but seeing as how it's used in more than one costume, I'll make new listings.
