Hello From Bend!
« on: October 03, 2023, 11:51:47 PM »
Hello Cloud City Garrison!
My name is Slade, and I'm located in Bend, OR. I've been a huge fan of the 501st for a few years now. I was excited to see that I could join at the Rose City Comic Con. I am interested in being a Tie Pilot. I look forward to making new friends and talking about Star Wars with this awesome community!

Hey Slade, glad you found us. Lots of knowledgeable Tie Pilot folks here to help you out if you need it. Do you have a particular version of Tie you were looking to do?

Hello and welcome! We've had some recent growth in our ranks in Bend, so hopefully that will lead to some new trooping opportunities in that part of the state!

I am interested in the original trilogy V2 tie Pilot. What should my next step be? I'm not getting a clear Direction of where to go next. I'm not used the the website just yet. :TKO:

good starting places are here:
the Tie Pilots CRL (Costume Reference Library)
https://databank.501st.com/databank/JRS_CRL

and the Jolly Roger Squadron forum (Tie Pilots+)
https://www.jrs501st.com/forums/

I have some extra bits and pieces of the TI costume, so let me know if you decide to go that route :)

If you have more questions, or need anything, let me know!  Building a costume/joining can be a big confusing endeavor, but I/we are here to help!

A Tie Pilot is a good choice. Get to where a cool helmet, quick to put on, full range of physical motion and easy to transport.
