Howdy Cheesy

Quick introduction on my part!

I am from Buffalo NY, but have lived in CA and TX as well. I got my first Ultrasaber last week and obviously <3 it. In fact so much, I just placed another order for a couple of staffs (because Im more of a two handed fighter) and hubby wanted one as well. I am also getting back into the cosplay scene and as soon as I stop being lazy and make my gaiters, my steampunk jedi will be complete....until I decide it isn't Shocked

I look forward to skimming through the forums and picking up what I can Cheesy

Thanks everyone for the welcome ^_^

Im going to try to finish up the costume this weekend. I also have to finish up my steampunk wonder woman first for a photoshoot my husbands doing, but that should take 2 seconds ;-)

Yeah steampunk is my other jam.  I already have steampunk harley quinn done and that's gone over well Smiley

Sounds like fun^^  I often see steampunk cosplayers at the Ren Faire I go to (like you, I split my time w/ Star Wars and as a Crusader).  Although admittedly, jedi robes are A LOT more comfortable than chainmail  Wink

Ahhh chain mail....I don't think I could wear it for the weight, but everyone always looks so good in in! Much respect for wearing it, especially in the heat!!

Thanks  Smiley  Actually, the weight isn't as bad as it sounds.  My hauberk weighs a little over 25 lbs.  Now while much of that is carried on the shoulders, a belt helps to mitigate that a bit.  But you are absolutely right about the heat  Tongue

I got my guardian w/ emerald last week. My boss made me bring it in today and now he -reallllly-wants one lol

On order is a Phantom Initiate V4 stunt sabers, so I can go to a two hand style. Also bought 16" blades in case I want it shorter. I have stick fighting training and some fencing, so I think Ill have a good mix. I also threw in a grab bag, because.....because. Cheesy On order for hubby is Fulcrum diamond and the Dark Apprentice v4 Staff, because he also had some stick fighting training and is comfortable with the two handed style

This is how to have a happy marriage Cheesy

I remember talking and asking my wife after I'd gotten my saber if she'd care if I got my jedi costume. Her response?  "Why the hell not."    Grin
