So this is what I've got for my costume so far... I'm doing away with that brown belt, need something to cover up those buttons with, and have armour just waiting to be bought. I'm in need of a cape/cloak and then, I believe, I'm done! What do you think?  |

It stands out just enough to be interrsting, but doesn't detract from the rest of the costume. Where are you getting the robe from? Jedi america? Twin rose? Mystik merchant? |

I like it, and it seems like it would be pretty decent for combat too, and give you fairly good freedom of movement.  |

Thanks, I shall think about keeping it. I do have a similar belt coming in from China so it will take a while to get here. Says end of next week on the tracking email so we'll see. The robe I'm not sure. I've found a decent one on a LARP website from Canada so prices are similar but no exchange rates/border fees. I like it, and it seems like it would be pretty decent for combat too, and give you fairly good freedom of movement. Thank you! It does allow movement and it is so much more comfortable than the first outfit I was thinking. I like it. what form of armor do you have your eye on waiting in the wings. <---- always curious.
As for armour, I found A really cool tasset belt and jacket that's purple and black and would look great so that's what I'm going for. Here's a pic from online...  |

If you're planning to cosplay all day in an outfit, comfort is a huge consideration. For example, for me a heavy, layered Kylo Ren outfit is fine because I need to be warm (even indoors in air conditioning!), but for someone else that would be completely intolerable except for a short time. You look less likely to get cold in that outfit. It would probably still be too cold for *me* but at least now I don't freeze just by *looking* at it!  That belt has a nice Old Republic feel to it...I like it! |

I've been told our venues are quite warm, and they're taking place in summer so I'm thinking I'll be ok. I tend to run cold all the time too so I think with the cape and everything I should be just right lol

I think the brown belt looks quite good but it may not go quite as good with your armor being purple. |

The outfit looks Sithy and like it allows a large freedom of movement. Very promising.
It's that stern look on your face that terrifies me more than the lightsabers, I feel like you're going to Force Choke me through the screen. I get the feeling that between the two of you that you are the Master and LR is the Apprentice.

Shhh... don't let him know! It's part of my plan to keep him thinking he's in charge haha I think the brown belt looks quite good but it may not go quite as good with your armor being purple. Agreed. Will have to wait until I get the armor to see how it looks. I have a black belt on its way which is a similar style just black so I might use that or just scrap the belt all together. |

Odd question, but just looking for some size comparison for the wife, as shes somewhat vertically challanged. How tall (short??) are you, and are those the 32" blades or the 24"? |
