Buff, NY All Things Costuming and Costume related! plus meetups!?

Hehe yeahh. Im waiting to see Steve's armor when it comes in then go from there.

Just ordered my ROTS Obiwan belt. I need to make the pouches and pellets for the belt, any suggestions?

Dave

I would talk to him ^^^

Thanks for the feedback. I talked with Dave and I went to rebel legion website. Great spot for information.

Lgtsbr is also named Dave and he makes belts and pouches Hehe .

Should have known that Stormtrooper armor deal was too good to be true. It was a scam and nobody got there armor as it was sent to wrong city or wrong item was sent to people. At least I got my money back

Oh NO!!!!!!!!

After this weekend I am back to costume crafting. LMK if I can help you finish your Mando. I know we discussed a vest- I will be putting mine
Together this week.

Well at least you got your money back! Damn scammers.

I am a hog for asking, but if no one else can take advantage of your offer, I definitely will.

Let's get a mando making party going lol he he

I'll tell you, Anna is impressive. It was like being at the eye of a worbla hurricane.

No I really need to see this lol

I need to see this as well

We essentially designed, cut, shaped, primed, sanded, and painted Bills Mando armor in 7 days. Not all consecutive, except perhaps for the last 6 days. ;-).

And when she says, "we," that was 70/30 at best... Closer to 80/20 with Anna carrying my sorry piece of beskar'gam all the way

I've delayed long enough. I've been asked where I got my imperial officer from, and here it is:
http://costume141.com/

They have an e-bay store: http://stores.ebay.com/TSSY2005

I messaged them on e-bay, they replied and directed me to their website. I used it because they offered me a 10% off code for such.
I payed via paypal so I wasn't worried as much about a scam. And as many of you have seen, I think it is good and works well. I have 2 flightsuits and a grand adm also from them that are all equally as impressive.
My only comment is to give extra length for the arms. I followed their measurement guide and even added another inch or two and it still could be another inch or two longer I feel.

My cap and rank badge I received from here:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/102383054/imperial-officer-grand-admiral-rank-bar

In any case, I recommend both sites. I'm impressed with their product for the cost.

To SHAAK TI, or not to SKAAK TI. That is the question….

Dooo it! You know you want to!

I know!! but there is no worbla involved! I am so torn!

What are the other options for the next costume?

. Who says there is no worbla involved....you can so use worbla for head piece and use fabric or more flexible material for tendrals

Give it a shot. I'm sure you will make it epic!

The only thing I heard that was a pain was the contacts. Everything else isn't that bad, even the face paint.

Getting set to spend some time this weekend on the following :

Grievous
One of my mandos ( I have 4 different going. Snow, desert, vizsla, and custom)

Chances are Grievous will be ready for SWN. Anthony specifically pulled me aside to chat about him at filming.
