	Awesome. Yeah I really liked the racing suit pattern. Were you able to find it in a store or did you just order the pattern online? I see Green Pepper at JoAnns, but I've never seen that one there I think. I'm going to check at the two I go to sometime this week. What fabric did you end up going with? ~Princess Solo -----signature----- Who's Scruffy Looking?

It was really easy, you just call the number on the site and give them a cc number, you get the pattern in the mail two days later. I ended up getting a lightweight wool for the jumpsuit. My NEGTC is going to be made out of a whole bunch of different types of fabric. I was trying to get the colors closer and not worry about the fabric as much. I bought alot of silk and gabardine. -Larame -----signature----- "Try not. Do or do not. There is no try." "You delivered such a mighty blow you caused your opponent to be ejected from the server?"

	ooo yeah? I was there in the tan and black outfits but never came across another Jaina...anyone got any pics of her from CIII? Larame - I ordered a bunch of swatches to see what time of wool I want to go with. I understand the color vs fabric issue. I tried to stick with the same type of fabric for my current Essentials outfit and ended up dyeing everything because the colors weren't right. I want to remake it, and when I do I'll either look just at wool fabrics if I can find the colors I want, or any fabric as long as it has the right color and look/feel to it...course you gotta be careful going that route, since that's how I normally do things for costumes, because most of the time I end up with fabrics that don't breath whatsoever! ~Princess Solo -----signature----- Who's Scruffy Looking?

Unfortunately the time I ran into her while she was in this costume at C3, she was in a hurry, I was in a hurry, and I don't think I had a chance to get a picture. I'd have to double check at home to be sure, though. There are later pictures of the costume itself here and here. I was another Jaina at C3 - I wore the first version of my Reunion costume there, but it didn't turn out well so I'm happy if you didn't see it. -----signature----- Taeriel's costume page: http://home.comcast.net/~taeriel/

	ooo her costume is cool! I'm so bummed I never came across her or you. I seriously thought I was like the only Jaina cosplayer at CIII because I never came across another one. I wore the tan and black outfits when I went. ~Princess Solo -----signature----- Who's Scruffy Looking?

	FenigDurak was also Strike Team Jaina when a few of us did the Jedi Strike Team from Star by Star -- Jaina getting attacked by the voxyn and then her in front by Zekk. Heehehe~ All these costumes are looking great and it's good to see the EU finally getting more love in the costuming community. Anyone up for Dragon*Con? I believe, besides whatever Tenel Ka costume I'm gonna make (XD) we're going to have a Jacen and an Alema. And possibly a Mara. Any Jaina's we can get some shots with? -----signature----- [ http://echuta.net/ - we're doomed! http://whatthefun.net/cosplay - my cosplay site! http://echuta.net/chivalry - my J/TK fanthings <3 http://echuta.net/oc - EU costuming http://tenel-ka.livejournal.com - the eljay ]

	I'll be at Dragon Con again this year. Best image of my Jaina costume so far is here. Ok, ok, I'm only kidding. It's here. I'd added a panel in the front because as we know reality and comics just aren't the same as far as costume functionality goes... -----signature----- This signature intentionally left blank (it ain't blank anymore, is it?)

Heehehe~ OMG... the voxyn is fuzzy!! That's just too cute! I haven't gotten anything done yet on my Reunion costume lately. My Leia poster dress is a little higher on the priority list for me, so I'll probably be working on it for a while before moving back to Jaina. larame_kaine posted: The sleeveless costume is done. Its a little bigger (loose fit) than Id hoped for, but this is not the best fabric, it doesnt give much. The pants need to be hipsters too, not the ones that come to my waist. Also, I think I'd make the little sash thing she wears under the belt (I call it a mini-obi = P ) a little smaller. Sleeveless... do you mean the Reunion/Refuguee cover outfits (in whichever color)? Huh, it hadn't occured to me that the band under the belt could be a mini-obi. I'd assumed it was a band attached to the pants, like in this pattern here, which is what I used for mine. Looking at the picture again, though, I can see how it could be either design. It's cool how different interpretations can work for these costumes, especially the EU ones. -----signature----- Taeriel's costume page: http://home.comcast.net/~taeriel/

Yeah, the Refugee one (I did it in brown). I thought about that at first and thats what I was going to do, pants with a band. But I wanted to kind of tie in the traditional 'Jedi' so I just made a separate band that goes under the belt. It's only one layer though and not as wide an an obi. -Larame -----signature----- "Try not. Do or do not. There is no try."

	Yeah I did something like that with mine. In the American cover it kinda looked like there was an obi or something. I made a simple one out of the shirt fabric. Goodness I need to redo that outfit! I can't tell whether to go with tan again, or try and find some greenish tan fabric, we'll see. Right now I'm working on redoing the Black Jumpsuit. Got some new boots and I HOPE they fit T___T And I've settled on the fabric I'll get...now I just need money for it XD ~Princess Solo -----signature----- Who's Scruffy Looking?
