BikerScout007 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Posted April 17, 2020 4 minutes ago, MrPoopie said: While I agree with fabric, I think their concern is that the "grooves" are a bit wide and would take a tight double stitched line to make them seem like a "canyon" instead of just a simple sewing line. It's not impossible just not a normal technique that most people know how to do. True, but we don't know if the width of the grooves is a side effect of having to replicate the design in plastic. I'd like to see canvas faulds mocked up if we can do it.

I think with such limited detail on this costume it helps to have comparisons with parts that we're all not confident in how it was constructed. Ultimately we're trying to show how good we are at translating something into the real world not just getting it out the door quickly. There will always be time to refine later but best foot forward if possible now. 1

BikerScout007 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Posted April 17, 2020 They remind me of these from Fallout 4: 1
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Maybe we could come to a compromise with that as a level 3 option and foam as a level 1 just a thoughtSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

And I doubt we'll even go Level 2 with this one. I'll leave the material open to a variety of things. I just think we can all agree they shouldn't be hard armor
MrPoopie Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 I'm not sure anyone will feel better until we can see what our options look like in the real world. Mockups should be made and then we can discuss more. 1
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 I think the bottom edges of the knee should be a tad sharper and not as rounded if that makes any senseCan see more of angle on bottom of plate imoSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

I'll adjust.
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Awesome amazing work so far I need to learn how to model one of these days Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Angles look right but maybe a bit too tall on the bottomSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Something like trim that bottom part off where it's a bit long Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 That's it! Man you are mad skilled Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1
MrPoopie Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Keep in mind that I have to bring the knee down a bit so that we have something to attach the knee and shin together so there isn't going to be the gap like there is on the toy. 1
MrPoopie Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 If everyone is ok with this I'll upload the files and ya'll can print to get the sizing right. 1
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Gotcha I think the figure pack is probably a better example for this than the black series Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
heartstopper85 Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 This is 3.75 I think shows leg stuff the best but looks good to meSent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk 1
Wompet Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Apologies for going back to the soft parts for a moment, but I just wanted to put everything in one post to double-check: Boots: Tank Driver or Original Trilogy boots (have a heel), not R1TK or FOTK (no heel) Gaiters: worn under shin armor - something like this, minus the understrap, in white canvas/cotton duck. Pants: jodhpur/breech style black cotton duck (Tank Driver pants or Shore Trooper in black instead of brown) Faulds/Kama: In white canvas/cotton duck, with interior batting to provide thickness. Mid-thigh in length. Cover from the inner edge of the front-most belt box to the inner edge of the rear-most belt box on each side. Pouches: made of the same material as the fauld/kama. On the Black Series these are squarish and centered on the fauld. On the Galaxy's Edge these are more rectangular and more forward. Are we going with people can build either style pouch, as long as they are a matched pair, or just the square pouches, as they are a shared element over multiple costumes (TB, TS, FO Incinerator)? 1

I've already made some of these changes to the Draft CRL in the dedicated thread for that. We're still working some of this stuff out. Where there are differences we'll probably go with a consensus choice that goes to the designer's likely intent. Like we have with the Biker Scout.
MrPoopie Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 3D Printable Shin & Knee (please do not distribute). These are symmetrical so they'll work for both legs. MT-Shin MT-Knee
