Correct , I did have to go through a few different faux leather materials, until I found one that was both durable and flexible,it's hard to judge from pictures sometimes. Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

https://ukfabricsonline.com/mock-eyelet-sports-fabric I used this material in black ,you will have to find somewhere in your country that sells it ,but it's not a hard to find fabric.

Posting here instead of on your WIP, sorry about that 😬 For reference this is my jacket that I had made and the bottom half is made of breathable mesh material and has wicking material inside.

Hello [emoji16] No ,it's not normal for them to have any kind of coloured tinge to the gloves,I'd contact endor finders,if it was me. The jacket is the thing that causes the most problems,if I were you, I'd start making plans on who will be making it as a lot of people have found it hard to find a seamstress to make one,either way it will take some time to source the correct materials and get everything organised. Everyone on here will help as much as they can , they are a good bunch [emoji6] Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

Walt's Trooper Factory Patrol Trooper Assembly Questions
Mandrake replied to TanRu's topic in Patrol Trooper HQ
Also there's a few Facebook patrol trooper pages https://facebook.com/groups/167298230641202/ https://facebook.com/groups/patroltrooperfam/ It's probably worth posting there too, although they aren't very busy 😕 -
Walt's Trooper Factory Patrol Trooper Assembly Questions
Mandrake replied to TanRu's topic in Patrol Trooper HQ
It might be worth posting on Walt's Facebook page, in the hopes that people who have purchased the costume could give you a idea? -
A word of advice! I've seen many cases of rustoleum paint reacting with other rustoleum paints,so check that they play nice with each other before laying them down on your helmet! It's going to take a good few layers of paint, just remember to apply thin coats and build them up.. patience is key Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

I remember seeing a post,a good few months ago, where he stated he was concentrating more on gun electronics , however this doesn't excuse not fulfilling previous speaker orders! Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

Wow that was quick work! Looks amazing,good job!! Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk -
To be honest, I was a bit surprised that Mr poopie hadn't split the 2 files up , to be available separately,although I realise the patrol trooper market probably consists of about 15 people worldwide [emoji23][emoji6] Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

I did find those, but unless I missed something,they are only available when bought as a 'upgrade' for the scout trooper costume into a fallen order scout,so there's lots of pieces in the pack, that don't apply to a patrol trooper. Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

For future reference to anyone interested in making a pauldron,a sewing template can be found here https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/16758-shoulder-pauldron-templates/ Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

Ha ha fair enough ,I just thought seeing as it would need submitting for approval that it'd need to be 'correct' to be approved , but you do have a point about head movement,I'm intrigued if a pauldron makes movement any worse...probably not though[emoji23] Also I've checking on the availablity of printable designs for the riot baton and shield and have found a riot baton( paid design ) https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/star-wars-jedi-fallen-order-scout-trooper-energy-electro-baton would this be suitable?if not could you point me to a previously approved file? And a free shield here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6591471 Although this is missing the imperial insignia seen in the game, would it be needed ? Although adding the insignia should be easy enough to add in prusa slicer! Sorry for the questions but seeing as the 501st loves details,I thought I'd ask [emoji6] Sent from my 21091116UC using Tapatalk

Quick question about the pauldron,is it a specific shape to the character, jfo scout and now the patrol trooper,or is it a general one used by multiple different trooper types ie tk's etc etc Excuse my ignorance, it's a subject I've never looked into before!

Looks like I'll be on the hunt to find a orange pauldron soon!
