Hello! My name is Isaias, but I like to go by Ike. I've been a lurker of both RL and 501st for years. It wasn't Phoenix Comic Con 2017 when I finally worked up the courage and introduced myself at the tables in the Hall of Heroes. Though it wasn't until Fall of that year at a meet and greet I met a few RL members. Which began my journey of my first build for ANH Han Solo

Though none of what I have currently is no where near close to RL standards. This is actually my first costume I've ever sewn together. Well minus the modified Jeans. But I'm currently under way doing as much research as I can to make these screen accurate or at least up to Standards. My first build I would like to complete would be Han Solo ANH. But on Deck, I'm aiming for ESB Han Solo and Cassian Andor. Looking forward to meeting more members and getting more involved!!

Sorrah_Arev (Marie McClure)

Hello, all!

My real name is Marie and this is my first time here on Rebel Legion!

Currently, I'm working on a custom cosplay. I took my incomplete Tallie Lintra from last year and boosted it with a new jumpsuit my mom has been an amazing help with putting together, and I finally have a real helmet, too! After gathering reference images from The Last Jedi for 10+ hours, I finally decided that I'm not cosplaying as Tallie anymore, but a generic A-Wing pilot. Since every one of them is varied in some way, whether it be the gear on their vests, the type of boots, gloves, helmet shape, and the number and positioning of pockets on their jumpsuit, I took the most recognizable details of TLJ-era A-Wing pilots from the Star Wars visual dictionaries and started combining them together for my cosplay. My next steps as a RL member will be to get my cosplay finished, then approved, so I can start trooping officially with RL at events this fall.

My cosplay consists of:
1. A hand-made, from-pattern (with some customization for more screen-accurate details) jumpsuit in the classic A-Wing olive green.
2. A hand-made, no pattern-used, white canvas A-Wing flight vest, including harness straps & fastenings.
3. A 3D-printed, hand-painted A-Wing chest box, with custom attachments to vest, and easy-access on/off switch for personally-added LED lights inside the box.
4. A Star Wars The Black Series Poe Dameron helmet (because it matches the style of other TFA&TLJ-era X-Wing and A-Wing pilots' helmets (with the exception of Tallie Lintra's helmet which is significantly different)) with customized paint job.
5. Three, 3D-printed and hand-painted greeblies for one of the sleeves. Every TLJ A-Wing pilot has the greeblies on either the right or left arm (mine is the left arm), and they have different styles of greeblies (mine are the same as TFA&TLJ-era X-Wing pilots').
6. Customized, genuine leather, ankle-height boots with thick, flat rubber soles, similar to many other characters'. It turns out that many characters wear boots that look like regular/real-world boots, which have regular heels separate from the rest of the sole, but minus visible laces & zippers. The boots I have, have a solid sole (a good example of what I mean are actually Finn's boots in TLJ) which are probably more typical in the Star Wars universe.
7. I don't have gloves yet, but plan to acquire/make a pair in the next year.
8. I have not yet decided whether to include a pilot scarf/sash, but I have the material to make one with.
9. I do not have a blaster or holster -- some TLJ A-Wing pilots (one of them for sure in the Visual Dictionary) have a holstered blaster they wear along with the rest of their pilot gear. I could make a holster rather easily, and purchase & customize a blaster.

That summarizes where my cosplay is at currently.

Thank you for reading my [winded] introduction! I hope this answers any questions you might have about me.

May the Force be with you.

I did a test run with Chewie at the Glendale Comic Fest today. Suffice to say, Chewie was a huge hit. I'll be submitting app this week.

Sven Fett () · Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2019 8:15 pm Post subject: Zeb Orrelios costume application

Hello,
Sven here.
I turned in an application 5 weeks ago, and haven't heard anything. I was wondering if the application was received, or if it somehow got lost. I haven't received any emails indicating the application was even received, so I'm feeling a bit concerned.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks Sven
