I ordered Palladium Pampa Hi Sneakers as the base for my DIY boots. Is it obligatory for the normal approval (not Lancer) to remove the two bars you mentioned? And does a template for the dogbone exist? How thick is this piece in the middle?

Now a question regarding the belt. I took canvas for the pouches. Can I use the same for the dropbox straps? In the CRL it is only mentioned "cotton webbing" in the same colour.

Next question. Does the holster have a visible gap between the front part and the base? Or does the paint cover those? The pictures I found aren't explicit on that...

I am starting the 3D print of the armor. My question is, whether the decals on the helmet must be a kind of sticker, or may be painted as well? And where do I get the proper template?

Could you please send me the file as well? I want to do it right from the beginning.

So which 3D model is the best you know? @Chopper

Are these requirements still prevailing with the updated files?

Hi everyone! My name is Alex and I am 39 years old. I am a Star Wars fan since I was a kid, even before I saw the first movie. I found an old sticker album and dived deep into the galaxy far far away! When the special edition was released the madness started. 🤪 When I learned about the 501st at the Jedi Con 2004 I wanted to become a 501st Member. Finally I met some people of the German Garrison by fluke in spring this year. Now I learn the ROTJ Scout CGL by heart, printed all DIY instructions I found here and have everything together for the soft parts (apart from the gloves). I'm only waiting for bad weather to have an excuse to stay inside instead of working in the garden. 😉 I think of 3D print the armour because I have professional printers at hand. Can anyone recommend a really good file which meets CGL standard? I look forward to finishing the costume to become a full 501st member!
