Jedi Costume pics

[stargater]

I finally took some pics of my Jedi costume for C3 today. I still have some to do on it, and it needs to be pressed so pay no mind to the wrinkly nature of it. I also still need to add more to the belt and I'm going to try to find a leather dye so I can match my belt and boots better. It's not supposed to be a replica or anything like that, it's a customized unique design.




It looks funny laid out this way, but there is a purple dickey type piece that covers the neck and then is the under tunic, then outer tunic, then the tabards with belt wrap-arounds. The pants have two purple stripes down each side, in the middle of the stripes is a stripe of the same color material as the rest of the costume.


Close up of the purple neck covering since you can't really see it in the other picture. You can also see more of the side stripes, but the middle tan stripe is actually bigger, it just needs to be pressed.


The color of the boots don't match the belt as much as I would like, I didn't have a lot of choice of leather color when I bought the material for the belt and I already had the boots before I started on the belt. I'm going to look for a dye that I can use to match it up better.


Just finished this yesterday, need to add some pouches, food pellets, and a couple more sliders (the little leather peices that cover the snaps) and the lightsaber holder.

I still don't have a cloak yet, as of right now I may not have one in time for C3, but I'm planning on adding it as soon as I can. Indeed.

Wow, very cool! I like the colors of the actual costume, and the boots and belt are nice! Some of the geeks people at the Fan Force meeting were talking about how to make the food pellets for the belts of their costumes, lol.

And, lol - you have the same bedspread I do!

Hey, there's an idea I hadn't heard. I don't remember what the people at the meeting said they were using...but I know it wasn't pencaps!
