Description: Clone Pilot — Warthog Phase 1
Prefix: CP
Detachment: Clone Trooper Detachment
Context: The Clone Wars: Season 1–3

Warthog was a veteran clone trooper pilot during the Clone Wars. He flew a Z-95 Headhunter, a V-19 Torrent starfighter, and a LAAT/i gunship. He had markings on his helmet that were those of Hunter Squadron of the 104th “Wolfpack” Battalion. He was considered an ace pilot due to him having excellent piloting skills in combat operations. He assisted Jedi General Plo Koon and the Wolfpack in many missions throughout the Clone Wars.

This is a visual guide used for 501st costume approval, not a how-to for construction. Construction details are found at the costume's Detachment website. Measurements provided here are generalized, and not criteria for approval. All 501st costumes are proportionate to the wearer in terms of size, fit, and scale. During evaluation, both text and images (CRL and Reference) must be considered. When in doubt about a feature of a submitted costume, GMLs should post questions in the Legion forum's DL/GML peer review section.
