Hello from Lost Creek

Hello!
My name is Wesley. I am never sure what to say in introductions. I have been a lifelong fan of Star Wars, starting with seeing the original trilogy in the movie theaters as a kid. I have things from my original action figures to different books to Lego Star Wars throughout my home, along with a patient and understanding wife. Although I had considered moving toward joining for a while, I recently had the opportunity to purchase unfinished Death Trooper armor. Since purchasing, I have done more research on what else I will need, but it can be overwhelming. I look forward to meeting and spending time with others who share my love and appreciation of Star Wars. Any advice and direction will be greatly appreciated in putting it all together. Thank you,
---Wesley Smith

Welcome. Please take a moment to check your private messages. You should have one from me concerning the process of joining the legion.

That's strange. I can just post it here to make it easier.

Wesley,

I want to take a moment and thank you for your interest in joining the 501st Legion and Garrison Corellia. My name is Michel Boyer and I am the Garrison Membership Liaison which means I am the individual who oversees the Academy and the approval of all costumes for Garrison Corellia.

Before you can be a member of the Legion and the Garrison, you will need to have an approved costume. We approve all costumes based on the Costume Reference Library which is the guide for all costumes of the 501st. You can find all the CRL's here broken down by costume type/category: http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CRL Each of the categories lists multiple costumes and describes in detail what parts/pieces are required for each costume.

I would also appreciate if you would take a moment and fill out the brief information below so I can get you assigned to an adviser and get you on your way to becoming a full member of the 501st. And if you have any questions along the way, please don't hesitate to contact me or any of the advisers.

Thank you again and I look forward to working with you during your build and eventually trooping alongside you in your costume. Once I hear back from you, I will create a build thread and assign you to one of our academy advisers. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
