Field medic W.I.P
« on: Oct 20, 2013, 12:59 AM »
Alright so I used to be a Hospital Corpsman in the Navy and the thought of making a mando field medic really interests me. So i'm wondering if there are any other medics on here. I would love to see some completed kits.

My concept would be:
a red to maroon flight suit
a black black vest
the armor would be a shade of blue
I want to do a Kama along with a partial cape
thinking of adding a scarf for a little bit of personal flare
not doing a jet pack but instead and med backpack with another smaller med bag
my weapons with be two pistols with thigh holsters
both gauntlets would have extendable vibroblades but mostly look like portable med scanners and diagnostic tools
I want the helmet to look like it can sustain the wearer no matter what environment

I'm working on some images and and such and i promise i will post them once i have them. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

These are some bags and pouches I'd planned to use on my kit to represent med bags and ammo pouches. Well that is if they are approved. I plan to make alterations to have approved if need be.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe if you use some of those bags you will have to cover up the zippers on them, to make them look less earthly. But other than that your idea sounds pretty solid. I know there are a few other medic type specialists on here, I just don't them by name.

So everything except for the zippers are acceptable on the bags correct? If anything I can try to find them without zippers. Gotta have space for my supplies.  :D  Just to make sure I'm clear on this but some of the armor can have exposed straps as long as they are not elastic. I ask this because I'm think of doing a mix of secured armor and removable. Kinda of a mission thing.   My last question is what about exposed knives? Do they have to look a certain way?

First, some points I would like to cover
  • Zippers ARE allowed on bags. The no 'visible' zippers rule applies to flight suit and armor/flak vest. Echo was correct that all earthly logos and writing must be removed or covered.
  • For exposed straps, they must be in-universe material such as tactical web belting and leather.
  • The exposed knife thing...just make sure its not real and looks like in could belong in the Star Wars universe
  • Ray'k, Darthmayhem, Cin, Darman, and myself are the current members of the medic brigade and are more then happy to help you.
  • Cin and Darman are the only ones that have a medical backpacks.
  • Rokeim Gekla is the Brigadier and incharge of all the Brigades. Deimos Ordo is the Brigade Marshal that is in-charge of the support division, which the medics fall under. Those 2 have the final say what is and is not acceptable for admittance into the medic brigade.

Work logs for examples of medics

It appears that you are heading in the right direction. The only thing I have a problem with is having both a kama and a cape. Its just too much. There is nothing saying that you can't do it, but most that have tired end up going with one or the other.

what Cajun said ;)  :P

Personally im not a fan of the modern day tactical bags being used on Mandos, i think they look to recognisable (particularly Maxperdition ones)
I like old ww1 - 2 leather or canvas bags ;) they just look more star wars to me.

I might change the bags a bit, but those where the styles I was wanting to go with. Also, I planned on removing and tags and logos from them. Though I might make some bags myself. Still on the fence about it all. After thinking about it I've decided to do a Kama instead of a cape. It would be nice to do both but it's going to look to cluttered with both.

I am wondering if anyone would know a material similar to the under suits used by the republic troopers in the Old Republic game?




Still having trouble with a helmet design I like though.

This was another idea I had for the armor.

I'm digging on the bandolier/ pauldron idea.

Thanks. I want my kit to look like I can be in the thick of combat with the rest of them.

I have an idea for the helm if it would be allowed



These are the two guns I plan on making for my kit:

Well that is a clone helmet I believe. So it wouldn't be acceptable, but you could definately add accents from that helmet to a traditional helmet, like the re-breather type part, or the fin on the top! I do think that pauldron would look very nice too.

Actually it's an Old Republic trooper helmet. I wish my drawing skills were a lot better. There are aspects of it I like along with the traditional helmets, but there are things I don't like about each.  The thing that really drew me to that helmet was the visor and re breather.

I'll figure it out.

You could modify the traditional T-visor, as long as it's still the traditional T. And like I said, you could put the re-breather on too! I'm almost positive I've seen something very similar to that somewhere! I'm liking alot of your ideas so far!
