Back on topic, boys, back on topic. This thread is about costuming, not about a fighting sequence.

What do people use for those Zabrak horns anyway? I'm "SMOOTH" bald so I could do the Zabrak thing pretty easily. I hadn't thought about that before. I think I'd have to be a good guy though... don't know if I could get into all that red make-up.

Inverted Darth Maul? I have seen past pics of an inverted Vader, where he was all white head to toe (except for the dark lenses in his helmet).

The white Vader came from an alternate reality Star Wars universe graphic novel where key parts of the story were changed. I believe it was called Infinities. In this version of Jedi, Vader lived at the end and changed his suit from black to white and took up a blue saber. I saw a guy with that costume at C3... was really cool.
As far as an inverted Maul... eh, I'd rather just do a regular Jedi Zabrak.

I'm going in mouse ears, rose boxers, a hasbro lightsaber and a shower cap.

Dude, do you know where you can buy a very authentic Slave Leia outfit? I know someone who might be interested and everything I see on the net is crap. So many people make this thing and they aren't very accurate. Money doesn't seem to be an issue for this friend of mine and I would LOVE to see her in it. YUB YUB!

This might be a bit off-topic here, but some of the fan costumes at C3 were totally amazing. Some of my favorites at C3 were the fans dressed up as:
- a Jawa (with glowing eyes and all)
- Dengar (this fan was dead-on perfect with the entire costume)
- the two Sandpeople with baby
- the really, really tall guy in the Chewbacca suit. He said it took him over 10 years to make it from scratch.
I give these fans loads of credit for taking the pain-staking time to create their costume piece by piece. They are so much better than your basic Vader, Stormtrooper, and Boba/Jango Fett costumes that you can buy in one shot out of a box.
And I know fans at C4 will be even better with their costumes. Can't wait...

I thought I would yack if I saw another tacky Aayla Secura. I mean if you can't pull off high quality blue make up... why bother? I saw a guy walking around in a Threepio costume, but it was the kind that cost $39.99 from the Star Wars shop. It was so tacky but funny as hell that he wore it to the convention. I'd love to do that but I'd take it one step further. I want one of those plastic Luke masks with the string. HAHA! I'd wear that and a classic white plastic light saber.

And some of the women in the Slave Leia outfits at C3.... well, let's just say some of them should have maybe used better judgement when deciding what costume to wear.
