Hey everyone,

I'm Andrew, I'm a long time Star Wars fan and nerd. I'm looking to finally start the road to cosplay, and I thought no better place to start then what I love most. The Empire. You can generally find me hanging out around Portland.

Welcome Andrew! I look forward to ripping your arms off and choking you....as is the custom with Wookiee's and Followers of the Empire.

I'm on the fence as money is big concern with me.  That said however, the number one costume I'd someday like to have; AT-AT Commander.  Only because I have a massive man crush for General Veers.  :oops:

Andrew,

You'll also want to join the ACD (Armored Cavalry Detachment) forums.  That detachment manages the AT-AT Commander CRL and they will be your best source of information for the costume.

And make sure you study the costume reference before making any purchases:

I'm currently building an AT-AT Driver.  If your curious you can find my WIP in the "Imperial Work in Progress" board on this site:

Good luck and don't hesitate to ask questions.

@Daryldoak Thanks, I applied to the ACD the same time I registered here, I'm just waiting for a response. I've also been studying the costume references a great deal, I'm excited to get started on something, I'm just really busy with school and bills.

Also love your Driver build, it looks awesome, cant wait to see it finished.
