You can't take the sky from me....


« on: February 28, 2015, 04:11:39 PM »

So since I am now costuming at least once a month, sometimes up to 5 times a month, I thought I should make another robe for my outfit- my striped robe was never made to be worn that often! I don't want to get it damaged since it took so much work.

So here is my new one Smiley much simpler, and this one can be safely washed too. My striped robe will be saved for special occasions like cons. I also have some foam build bracers to go with it and gloves, but I'll get photos of me wearing them and the robe tomorrow Smiley

That looks great. Simple but definitely effective. I know the feeling having costume parts that are almost too nice to use.  I have made stuff that was cheap and easy and I get more use out of them and have more fun with them because I do not worry. You made a wise decision.

Do you have pics from different angles?  Maybe with the hood up? I just want to marvel at your work.

Way nice robe. This one seems to suit you best. In my eyes I think. As for waking up, a Monstah should help XD Or Mountain Dew Kick Start, I usually get the regular flavor one. I really like how your new robe came together though. I like the colors

Okay I promised photos! Today was great- heaps of fun with friends, lots of photos, and I may have spent a bit of money and bought four new Lego, a book, five pop! bobbleheads and a dancing groot. Spent a fair bit of time talking to some guys that costume with what we are building, so we have plans for going to cons together, photo shoots etc! Cheesy Honestly, getting into costuming was the best thing ever!

But anywho....





Going a little sithy Wink






And for a bit of fun....


That image is just a bit funnier coz my bracers are based off of Halo Reach pep armour Wink

And for a bit more fun still....

Your robes look great. I wish I could sew that well. I'm making my own tunics, but they're way simpler than your stuff.

dumb question: do you play swtor? If so, what server? we should get all the players on the forum together on the same one. That'd be fun.

I do, just rarely. I don't often have time. I'm pretty busy these days.

If you scroll down to the bottom of the forum there is another section for SWTOR Smiley When it started up there were a lot of people from the forum trying to join up I think, but there just doesn't seem to be the players now

Your outfit is all kinds of awesome!  I really dig the new robe.  It's very striking all on its own.

lol, just to toss props, and fist bump, and give a point.. love what Master Venturous did with this pic, giving it that, "force bubble" blaster deffence


 lol, i am having trouble getting all these measurements ans stuff down for my outer robe, but i might just go with my idea of a "poncho" .... cut hole in center, let rest lay down, and add a hood to it... lmao!!..  my character is a hermit from the swamps after yoda past anyways, so it would make more sense his clothing is more uneven and ratty looking lol

Luckily my character is tattered and worn out. The more broken in and trashed my tunics and robes get, the better Smiley

New shoulder armour got worn out in public today Smiley These are the remade version of what I originally made to go with my striped robe and are made from foam with coat hangar wire to hold the shape. I'm a helluva lot better at it now than 18 months ago and these have come out a lot nicer. They need to be sanded in places to tidy up some bits and given some more coats of paint and I'm thinking of doing some more mods, but not bad for my first live test run. In case you are wondering, they had two straps added to each and were pinned into place for today- they will have some form of buckle or clip to hold them in place with a small loop hidden at the join between hood and neck on the robe that they hook onto.

They were a hit with the other costumers and the public in general- armour plus double bladed lightsaber turns heads and makes a lot of people say wow! Shin armour is the next step, hopefully to be done next weekend in time for Oz ComicCon Perth Smiley
