For me it's the Imperial Knights, vac-formed in styrene.
I've seen the fiberglass ones, just a little too much work and they seem a little thick and clunky.

I wanna do Mission Vao now. Kaylee, the mechanic in Firefly, her costume she was wearing in front of Serenity in the pilot episode with the umbrella, jumpsuit, chinese top, and little buns. And a biker scout will be later. (after I build my speeder bike!). And I'm considering doing a generic Jedi, because the robes are classic, and people recognize them. That'd be good for Halloween.
Darth Revan would be cool to do sometime.

Some grizzled, hardass, scruffy, armored Jedi dude...
Believe me, this one costume is enough for '08. Never thought I'd be sculpting armor from scratch.

Now adding Susan's green Archery dress and the Joker's purple overcoat. I found some dark green wool gab for the dress and some dark violet velvet for the coat.

After going to tonight's TRU Hasbro Clone Wars Midnight Sale, I'm tempted to add in the Hoth Speeder Bike Patrol Troopers to my list.
The reason? I can use most of the stuffs from my Biker Scout for it and the "Jumpsuit" is what I had been tempting to do the past few weeks as the full costume is so easy to do (Imperial Scanning Crew; I just need the Grey Jumpsuit and another Compad as other parts coming from my TIE Pilot). Okay, not 100% accurate as Scout Jumpsuit suppose not to have any pockets but then again, it might just be one of the costumes I'm doing for the heck of it. 
So this is my list so far:
Real To-Do List:
1. ROTJ Biker Scout Armor (50% Done)
2. Hoth Speeder Bike Patrol Trooper
3. PRINCE CASPIAN Lucy Red Dress (60% done and worn to movie)
4. ROTS Padme Medical Gown (10% Done)
5. ROTS Padme Steel Blue Nightgown (10% Done)
6. HARRY POTTER Hufflepuff School Robe (5% done)
7. HARRY POTTER School Cloak (40% done)
8. FOTR Ringwraith Ver. 1.3 (for Halloween?)
If I can afford it or got the time list:
1. CW Padme Red/Maroon Cloak Outfit
2. STARDUST Yvaine Star Gown (need to get new cloths as previous ones had been used for my Lucy Red Dress. And I want it to be Real Life colour accurate so means can't use Dull Light Blue any more)
3. PRINCE CASPIAN Lucy School Uniform (10% Done: The Shirt, Tie, Stockings & Shoes only  )
4. ROTJ Luke Skywalker Tatooine Outfit / Dark Forces Yun
5. CW Padme Snow Bunny Ver. 1.2 OR 2.0 (either I upgrade my current costume to RL Standard or redo it completely based on the Hasbro Illustration & Figuring)

My ToDo List is too long, but I at least got everything sorted and labeled so I know what my ToDo List is.
And I'm sewing like mad to get a costume ready for WorldCon in less than 2 weeks.

Well, I've sort-of finished one thing off my original list, Giselle:
I put it together for Adventurecon last month - I ran out of time and ended up making the white shoulder wrap really last-minute (as in, the morning before we left for the con) - so I want to re-do that for Dragoncon  Otherwise I was pretty happy with it! It was fun to wear.
I also made use of all the leftover ivy from my wedding in April. I was sitting there looking at it and thought, I can use that!
Poison Ivy - this was a really quick, easy project and I was really pleased with how it turned out. I can't wait to wear it again.
And most recently my husband asked me to put together a snowbunny Padme to match his new clonetrooper for the TRU midnight toy release. I already had most of the materials for it, and it went together pretty quickly.
One of these days I'm going to make a new battle outfit and make a decent belt! LOL.
We're working like crazy on finishing everything for dcon... hope we get it all done!

Rockin costumes, Kell! Love your Poison Ivy. I think that was such a great use of your left over ivy from your wedding! What better way to remember your big day!
On my end, not too much new. But I have FINALLLLLYYYYYYYY finished(and by finished i mean, have a few items done) my Pirate costume! I plan on making a secondary under dress, as well as 2 other bodices. Maybe even an over skirt. Not sure. It's not 100% done, but it's awesome. My baldric was made by Ashton, it has a matching scabbard. My belt is a temp too, just something he put together last minute. It's a store belt, with an embossed one on top. Honestly, I love it. But we'll see what he comes up with next.
Also, at this point in the day, I hadnt noticed my bodice lacing had slipped. so.. yea.. ugh. I'll have better pics soon!

didnt mean to derail this thread, 
guess what I was trying yo say was
I have some prosthetice and head pieces I was planning on putting on Ebay, but I thought it would be nice to offer costume makers here at the forum something there may not really have the time or the resources to make.
My name is Lou Klein if you've seen my films you know I can make almost ~any~ alien Jedi come to life,
so if any of you here are FX artists . great! love to talk shop and share notes, but for those of you who want to know how to make certain things or where to buy items or materials please feel free to ask.
I really respect the talent here at the forum and would love to assist in any's venture.
all the very best

Those masks are amazing LordWroth! Wow.
I do have to say that offering items for sale in the forum is not allowed unless you are linking to a listed eBay auction that is your own.
Please read our Welcome and thread index to familiarize yourself with our forum rules. Thanks, and welcome to C&P!
