Yes, the plumed/no visor version would be ideal especially for hot events. I'd love to see your progress when you get to working on it. How much was the force pike from Cabbagefarmer? Do they have a website? We're in the middle of making my husband a blaster, but it seems house projects have taken a...

Here is a write-up on my blog about the SP helmet we received, if anyone is interested to see it: http://costumesandartwork.blogspot.com/ ... elmet.html

Yeah, SP seems to be pretty much the only option for anyone with a limited budget. My husband would love to upgrade someday, but for now, his is a SP. http://i873.photobucket.com/albums/ab295/Mieal_Deneb/Costumes/02_zps9a78ccf7.jpg This picture cuts off the crest, but you can see the rest of it.

The quality of the pictures is bad because I have no way to do screen captures, so I just took digital pictures of my TV!

The standards for the Ep 1 & 2 and Ep 3 Senate Guard have been revised. Is it possible to have this reflected in the locked sticky at the top of this page? Thanks! (I'm the current costume judge for this category) Senate Guard (Episode I & Episode II) Required Items: 1. Screen accurate blue ...
