I only have a question about the boots, and it's more about consistency over the different standards. In this standards it says outrigt "no zippers, unless covered". I have been approved with other costumes, for example General Leia, with a zipper on the inside of the boot.

I think that this is an issue, that should probably be discussed among LCJs and detachment leaders, but I think it would be good if here was a general RL policy on what is and isn't allowed regarding zippers on boots.

[Lora Skywalker ()]

It probably would be. But some costumes have very specific boot styles while others don't.

How would other feels about a color neutral zipper (aka black) that wasn't covered?

It would make finding boots easier. It look me a long time to find a boot that was wide enough for my calf with no zippers.

Following LeiaAurora question about the donut in her build thread (http://www.forum.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=88209&start=30), should we be more specific on the helmet ?
Specially as the endor commando standard his absolutely not precise (http://newsite.rebellegion.com/endor-commando-rebel-soldier-trooper/)
There is problem in the current standard as the donut appear at same time mandatory and optional for the commando version.
In red removal, blue addition, green notes to be removed after.

Top opening should be close to the cloth helmet and should not leave a big gap. Black striping is preferred to be indented and not painted only.
See here at 24 seconds for top view of the helmet http://www.starwars.com/video/leia-meets-wicket.
You can see here at 1:48 that there are 8 strips. But in the Battlefront game you have 9 on her helmet. https://youtu.be/6uEXykAHRJ0?t=1m48s
Regarding the facts stripes are indented and not painted, I put it that way as there is not strong certitude from reference images on that point. Even toys doesn't help here as some as just paint and some have indented them like sideshow figures. However, if you look closely in some shots of speeder bike chase, the paint is not chipped on the stipes like the olive surrounding, suggesting it is indented in the helmet shape. Also, most of the helmets I know are indented.
3.(Commando Only)Grey Vest and Rank Insignia (see standards under Endor Briefing Room Version)

But the poncho hood DOES have an oval opening to it, not just a regular old hood? I think this needs to stay in there.



I also think the belt shouldn't be listed as "Olive", that's a yellow color and quite subjective. It's a deep forest green.

How about 'drab' instead of olive? That covers the military green color that they may have been going for.

I also tweaked language about length that uses "hit," which could be confusing in a second language.

[Ritin Kornas ()]

Looks good to me like that

Except you should remove my green comment form it in, regarding the soft and hard helmet with no gap in between ^^

Hoooooo I get what you mean now. And I persist it's not connected to the hood but it IS the hood ^^ But I see the point now, wasn't clear to me it was this before!


Ok, maybe can I propose the following then. What do you think of... ?

[Leia (Vera Campbell)]

Yep! Part of the pattern

How about:

e. Poncho features a hood that can cover the helmet when worn. It is closed at the neck with oval-shaped frame around the face. When worn down, hood should blouse under oval piece. Hood should hang down to shoulder-blade/mid back level in back and should have 2-4 inches/5-10 cm of fabric in front.
