Starting TIE Pilot, Officer on hold

Hello!

I had a build thread a while back, but the person who was sewing my Imperial officer costume has been unable to meet with me due to COVID. I now have a TIE Pilot underway, so I'm not sure if I need to be assigned as a cadet under someone else.

I will try to get pics ASAP. I currently have a fully built helmet/chest box from Intergalactic Suppy, Wampawear flight suit and comm pad, gloves that I bought from Travis (not sure of the brand), and Crow Props boots on the way.

The only thing I really need at this point, to my knowledge, is a bigger belt, as the lockdown weight has made the one I had a few inches too small.

Hey Dave! I'm sure Anthony will be assigning you an advisor soon. I'll shoot him and the other advisors a quick heads-up. TIE Pilots are great! Awesome choice!

I was making belts for a while, but I'm all out of leather, buckles, and greebles. The greeblies source I had has been held up on production due to COVID. If you are interested in making your own belt, check out this thread: https://www.garrisoncorellia.com/phpBB3 ... f=16&t=764

I know that the Wampa Wear belt is about 60", not sure the size that you're needing: https://wampawear.com/product/imperial- ... nd-buckle/

Good to hear from you again Dave. What TIE pilot costume are you building, IE: is it an OT version 1 or version 2?

This is Travis. Your gloves are WampaWear. I also recommend their belt, it comes in a long length. Anthony, his current armor is a version 1, but a cog could be swapped for a third hose if he'd like to do version 2.

@GB Dave, I'm getting my first officer uniform (tunic/pants) through cosplaysky, they are fairly affordable and hopefully not much modification will be needed for the tunic/pants.
