First Order Tie Pilot

[Vasari]

Been Looking around for the peices on Etsy and imperial boots and came across some interesting stuff.

I???m curious what you guys think about the quality.

I can only speak to the TK white boots by Imperial....great quality though they run a tad narrow (for me at least, I had to stretch mine width-wise).

VERY comfortable.

ImperialBoots tends to be a good maker, but I'd get some extra info from the detachment first on those gloves.?? Jolly Roger Squad handles the pilots.

That armor appears to be finished 3d prints??? I think??? If so it could be brittle and make trooping kind of tough.?? You can probably save a bundle if you're going that route by simply buying an unfinished kit and painting/finishing it yourself!

@Foxhound621??had a 3d printed Shoretrooper, since the design is sort of similar, he might be able to give you some pro-tips on a build going that route.?? I know heat can damage it, so leaving that kinda material in the car on a hot day might give you a bad warp!

??

Again, I'd ask about this maker on the detachment.?? As a rule of thumb I tend to avoid direct etsy purchases... a lot of recasts, subpar items, and with the added Etsy fees going straight contact with the seller can often save you a couple bucks!

Na, my printed material is good up to 200 degrees farenheit, pla warps at 110 degrees.

What are you printing in? ABS?

[Foxhound621]

ABS is too hit or miss with print quality, too much shrinkage or warping, I use PETG
