Kaydel/generic officers from TLJ costume standard discussion

I think that this discussion has run its' course.

It goes without saying that we do not have the ability to please everyone.

So, before this goes to a vote, are there any last comments on the standards as listed by Dawn?

I did make a few changes like "proportional to wearer"-there are far too many body types to state some measurements.

-Pants may have pocket but are not visible when jacket is worn.

But the trousers have front patch pockets, which come a bit lower than the jacket? Which means if you are building to the references it would be unclearable...which seems a bit bonkers.

unless you mean no back pockets?


-Combat stitching around the knee.

I think this needs to be clearer

Also if her trousers are only listed as brown, what will you do if lots of people use the reference with her green trousers? Or are we declaring that as not usable, the same as the refs from the actors at the con.

Those pictures are not sharp enough to make out the detail. But the generics are wearing dark brown belts.....and we have just reddish brown listed.

all the people who wear trousers with the combat knee's also have patch pockets (Where we can see the top of the trousers). That includes some of the generics with padded knees and troopers. So it seems odd she would have the knees and not the pockets....but then Poe has the pockets and no knees....

Honestly there's so much mix and match I'm ready to call it a day. ( I'm starting to loose my mind a bit.) So lets go with what we've got.

but I'd say if we get a clear ref of the pocket when we get the clear screen shots with the dvd release, perhaps ammend it? unless you have no problems with people putting it in as long as they can supply the reference?

Also I'm not trying to be difficult with the green trousers variation of connix, I have someone in the my detatchment building this, so what do I say if she wants green trousers?

Yes thank you Phyllis and to Dawn for putting the work into this standard.

The size of the collar is listed, but not type? I’d suggest adding “standing collar” for clarity.
