Rebels - Biker Scout CRL Discussion

[Retrofire]

Without further ado here's the draft CRL. Based of course on the standard TB CRL. I've moved the level 2 requirements to a TBD state since there are no references as of yet. I've added a few items that I've seen in the reference pictures but all of this is submitted for discussion. I'd like to keep what you all come up with here in this forum so I don't miss any updates. So jump in and let's bring this awesome new scout to life!

I'm drafting one Jeremy using Word. Makes it easier to transfer over the the forum for discussion. I don't like writing long documents using the forum as the editor is too small. I'll have it done tomorrow evening and up for draft review. It's going to be basic to say the least but I figure we have to start somewhere.

[Nexous]

Might be easier if you edit your first post and add that there organizational wise should help

Good point Daniel. Thread updated and cleaned up.

Hey Jeremy....the CRL is started. I guess you have to make one now

[Bubonos]

Lol I saw it while on a bathroom break at work today. (yes I check tapatalk forums from the can) I'm so gonna do this! I have to finish reading it however. Before I can comment more than its coming after my mando or during. It'd be cool to be able to say you were one of the first rebels scout trooper

 

[Bubonos]

Where did it go? I cant seem to find it.

I had to clean up the thread a bit to keep it organized. You should see it in the first post now.

[HAVOC28]

It the image that I've attached, the undersuit (top, at least) looks more like the typical storm trooper "Under Armor"-type undersuit rather than the looser riding suit of a movie scout... Also, the suit has a ribbed neck seal.

Check out the reference pictures thread for some more visuals. The season three trailer provided some good reference and we're awaiting the start of the season to hopefully see the biker scouts become a recurring part. It's about time!

 

I would agree that it does look like a UA type undersuit but we'll need to have some full front on pics to start to narrow down what it is exactly. Now we just need to see who's going to take a shot at producing the armor.

[SanTan Scout]

is it me or do the elevator bolts on side of visor look much bigger than standard. I know it is the animated version so everything has small changes BUT???

 

I like this...

 

Would almost be easier to point out what is not the same as the Imperial scout ....like the cummerbund , the neck seal, shoulders , pouches... so much is standard with only a few changes...DETAILS details always in the details....Allot of TBD still...do we need more info to proceed??? IS the chest armor the SAME or will there need to be a whole new piece for that....

 

I would love to do a REBEL SCOUT, sounds wrong yet right, is that wrong??

 

 

Sorry I am simple...

[Darth Voorhees]

pretty sure just about everything is different lol. Same basic design but everything is stylized. I intend to make this armor with plans to have ti avaiable by Spring/summer 2018

[StephTrooper]

Anymore thoughts on the under suit? UA vs. flight suit?

ok. The armor is coming along nicely The crl says the drop boxes are plastic. I think cloth. Also the thermal det? I don't think it has one.

[Bubonos]

I thought the drop boxes look more like our pouches.

[Retrofire]

I agree. The seem a tad longer and maybe a bit thinner. Also noted they look to have a black line (stitch) pattern as well.

[rottie]

Me either But crl purpose

[StephTrooper]

I need CRL info on shirt and pants... Looks like a TK under armor shirt with tactical pants. Doesn't look like it has a flap, but the seams are front and back? Keep this? No pockets on pants either...

[Kdragunov]

^Good question about this^ being some of what i seen on the scout armor for the cartoon version is different from what the CLR's are on page 1

Posted final images for CRL approval
