Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

My flight suit came in from CosplaySky a few weeks ago. I tried it on but haven't had the time to take pictures yet! It fit. :) Things that need altering on it: - Standard collar needs to be made into a Mandarin point in the back. - Commpad pocket needs to be slightly larger to accommodate the rest ...

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

Fingers crossed! I put in the compad window and pocket measurements, so that may help.

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

I have decided to return the Wampa Wear suit and order a custom "501st" cosplaysky suit. I'm bummed but there was no real way to salvage the Wampa Wear one without a lot of time and effort on someone's part.

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

Good news! The Wampa Wear XXS suit came in! Bad news! It's super baggy in everywhere but the waist. The cuffs go over my hands, the chest is incredibly billowy, and the shoulders are nowhere near my body's shoulders. I know it's not supposed to be 'form fitting' but this is overboard. I'm linking ou...

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

Finally lucked out and was able to order a flight suit from WampaWear! I'll need it hemmed at the very least. Curse my short legs!

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

I would like to be a full TIE Pilot one day. Looking at the Bridge Crew requirements, I could easily double the Reserve Pilot with the ROTJ Bridge Crew CRL (has gauntlets and compad, but no code cylinders or headset). Eventually, I could add belt boxes...After I trim the belt and get those. Personal...

Couple Questions on DL-44

Two questions: 1. Can TIE Pilots have DL-44s as their blaster? The CRL listed it as an option for TIE Reserve Pilots...And no weapon was listed for TIE Pilots. It'd be down the road if I go full TIE Pilot but I'd rather check and see before I get too invested. 2. Can the blaster props have light or ...

Re: TIE Reserve Pilot WIP

Thanks for the link. It's a Wampa Wear belt; I plan on trimming and/or pinning the belt when the flightsuit is in my hands. When I put the WW belt over a regular outfit, it wrapped around me almost twice. Regular belt habits made me automatically go for the left than the right.

Now, if only I knew how to put the belt on correctly...
