Im stoked to troop with A'Sharad Hett!!! your bold doing a parade in that Tusken bucket lol I limit my tusken to cons so all I have to do is stand there LOL

I figure as long as I can see the person in front of me I should be okay walking a straight line even with severe tunnel vision and red lenses. I designed the bucket so can wear my glasses inside and I also made room for fans to cool and defogging the lenses.

In as Vader

[DeloMan81]

I'm in, Mando. Can swap to Scout if another Mando wants to come.

I might take you up on that... Let me see if I can make it.
Or can we do beskar and non-beskar?  Is that allowed?  Technically same character.

If we had a ton of people like the old Starlight days maybe, but with 10-15 it might be kind of weird to see two Mandos? I'm cool with being in my scout, so he is all yours if you can make it!

[Blackthorpe]

Damn you Luke, you’re fast. Sign me up. I’ll see what costume I want to use.

I can swap to TI if you want to squad up.

[dpmohney]

I’m in

[Etherealblue]

Count me in! Costume TBD. Definitely not Aayla for a parade, haha. Probably my Mirialan Jedi.

You are brave to troop in that.  Especially after what I heard about the narrow tunnel vision.  I get the same thing with Revan.  Think I am nearing 20 troops with him.  Vision problems are at least getting better.  Going to get help with setting up a fan to help defog my lens.  The only real problem is the costume is the hottest around my neck, since it is a turtleneck. I probably should stop tucking in the balaclava into it to get some breather room.  The guys at Northern Lights on Saturday were telling me you could see the perspiration beads start to drip at the bottom of my mash. Ya no matter the temp I get a bunch of perspiration.  I always have to wipe it out afterwards.

I walk around my tiny house wearing the helmet doing various tasks trying to get used to the impaired vision.

I'm sure there is somewhere to put a small 5v squirrel cage/blower fan or two in the Revan mask. Got to get creative is all. That mask has a long chin doesn't it? Perfect place for a fan that blows up the lens. I managed to put 2 5015 blower fans with independent power buttons, a 21700 battery and charger inside a tusken bucket. It's a nice breeze inside. We can PM some ideas if you want.

Here is a photo link that has images of it. https://imgur.com/a/L7m5efk. Even having the fan intake inverted there's still more than enough air flow to dry out my eyes. With the masking having curves it creates multiple intake spots.
def curious to see it in person theres no way I could fit my face in there with fans in that spot....

Understood.  I'll know more for sure as we get closer to the date.
I'm sort of weather dependent as I don't know how the paint and weathering will hold up to rain.
And I need a bit of help dressing so I have to see if I have a helper or not.
Maybe another trooper can help too.

Thanks!
I usually have a friend with me to help with spotting but if not one of us will always be there to help no worries there man
