Very cool Chris! Make sure you post some pics of both costumes when they're done.

Well I am going to need alot of help and advice since I don't know really much about costuming.
I hope I can get this going in the next few months or so.

Hey Chris, I'm doing an officer costume too! I plan to finish it over the summer.  That way I can officially join the 501st, instead of just tagging along. I need to get my stuff submitted to the Rebel Legion too at some point for my Barriss Offee costume.
I really hope I can make the next Celebration, whenever and wherever. I would *love* to go to a Celebration in Australia. I'd have to allow a lot of extra time for regular vacation stuff though. I've wanted to go there for a long, long time...

Add me to the list of people hoping to join the 501st in the near future. I have something big in the works  and will be keeping you updated as time goes on.
Chris, make sure you check the costuming boards here as well as our 'home away from home'. There are a bunch of 501st members in both places that can help you out.

Dustin Roberts posted the following about Celebration V:
I read this in our OSWCC Forum from a memeber who attended Dragon Con last week -
"I was at Dragon*Con over the weekend and Steve Sansweet was there. To clear up some rumors:
- No C5 until 2010
-There are NO "finalist" cities at this point.
-It looks like C5 will be somewhere from the midwest to the east coast
-They are looking at Chicago, Indy, Baltimore as well as others. Again, there are no finalist cities
-No dates have been set
-No company has been picked to run the con"

That was actually 2 weekends ago. A member over on sandtroopers.com attended the con and Sansweet's talk and pretty much said the exact same thing. She also mentioned that they got to screen the first episode of the Clone Wars.
Unless I can find someone willing to pay my way again  I most likely won't be making it if it is held in 2010. The wife and I are taking the kids to Disney in the fall of that year.

I am glad it will be in 2010 at least I will have time to save up. I am hoping that it will be in either Chicago or Minneapolis. I have friends in those areas and I know the area pretty well. Indy would be cool since it would have the small town feel (granted Indy is bigger than Worcester but the major difference is people are nice there compared to MA. lol) Plus I also know my way around Indy having been there numerous times in high school and college. I would say forget FL even though Disney is there and more than one thing could be done that week.

If it were in Florida between Disney and Celebration V I would have to hitch hike home or sell some blood.

I just don't see it being in Orlando. The last thing Lucas wants is competition for his fans money.
While Chicago & Indy would be cool, I'm kind of hoping for Baltimore which was on that 'short list' that now doesn't exist.  Could drive (or even take the train) instead of fly plus it is a cheaper city than Chicago for things like hotel rooms and entertainment.

Probably will never happen, but I'd love them to have it in Boston someday, either the World Trade Center or the new convention center. Hard for me to justify spending the dough to travel for a Star Wars geekfest (as much as I'd love to!)with a baby to feed a mortgage.
