Holes in the sides for filament Glued and clamped together Plastidip added after the textured spray paint Couple lines but they can be hidden with some of the weathering.

I was going to spend a lot more time smoothing this out until I saw the textured appearance in the closeup shots so I'm hitting it with a textured spray paint, and will put black over this once the two sides are connected and solid. I've used this technique before and I think it will look incredible and match the screen references.

While I'm getting pieces printed out, I got a few more shots of the interior shield parts. It looks like a textured sand spray paint could be used, then painted black and some weathering added. I was also able to see more clearly the grip and brace pieces. The "battle damaged" effect looks like it could be a possibility, but may be a bit difficult to achieve. Probably best to just go with the standard for now, may try this out more with a second shield.

Starting to put together the Riot Shield as seen in Jedi: Survivor, used by both regular and pauldron-wearing Scouts. Files created by our own MrPoopie. I am printing these files on my Anycubic Kobra Max, 400x400x450 build plate. These files are intended to be printed out on larger sized machines. The main shield looks to be a light gray, with dark gray top. The inner grip is black, all satin or semi-gloss, with light weathering. A white imperial cog is in the center of the front, exact size to be determined later, and a red transparent view plate. The bottom 3 grill plated look to have dark gray recesses (same color as top) with the raised portions black. Side details just below the top portion of the shield, an inner groove on each side The inner grip area looks to be all black Now on to the print files. Most will need to be oriented to your printing preferences, but all have come out very nice so far. I'm just going straight down the list on the files for printing, no particular order, but it looks like the grip area on the back of the shield will be the first part finished. There are top and bottom brackets in the files, only one pictured here, both are exact size I printed the handle with 20% infill for added rigidity. One side of the "pole" is shorter, I inserted the handle into that side Details turned out nice, printed these with vertical orientation 3 grill files, all identical I can get about 2 pieces printed each day, I will update once some degree of progress has been made on the pieces.

I'd be interested in taking this on, I just got some screencaps from the game. Will it be split into smaller pieces? Got a couple shots for coloration. Looks like clear red? Also may need a big stencil for the Imperial Cog. Very light gray with dark gray top? Also light weathering added.

Have to see how it looks in actual gameplay, may have some differences.

I may have missed some of the conversation, I apologize for that. I have to work two jobs and get exhausted so I don’t always catch everything. And the build thread progressed so much faster than anything I’ve seen so there’s the possibility I missed because of that too. All my armor was 3D printed and it took a lot longer for me to get mine done. The “minor detail” is that the biceps are not attached to the arm with an elastic strap. You can see in the reference image that it is not present, the biceps are closed. Possible for a future Level 2. -

A few things I would have changed before the submission pictures, and minor details in reference images not specifically stated in the CRL, but as long as it’s approved I say welcome to the Fallen Order ranks! -

Looks like you’re adding extra silver on the baton where it needs to be black. Also, the secondary buckle plate needs to be taken off. Other than that it’s looking really nice! -
For the tank, it requires the trapezoid detail on top of the pinstripe with 4 thicker tank stripes. These are also acceptable for the ROTJ Scout minus the red detail on top. So if you want it to be interchangeable you can just have the top switch out.
-
Just had mine approved, looking good on that baton so far.
