If you could get some pictures outside the natural light will help get a better look

For the pin holes as well I put 6 coats of red and 3 coats of primer on my bucket I would think with this much paint and not to mention the 5 coats of clear the pin holes would be gone

This rope sash is good to go I was cleared by LT

Here is a pic with the rope sash this is what they are looking to change to.

When I unpacked my robes from the mail I just hung them up and let the weight of the material just do the work in removing the wrinkels and I also keep them hung up when not in use and when I transport them I make sure they are layed out or hung up I never stuff them in a box this will make it easy ...

This is gooing along nicely just make sure to take your time with the painting part unless your are having it done professionaly done

We would need to see pictures of the inner robe the gloves need to match the inner robe these gloves may be too red

I don't think so mine had some room for my 10 1/2 foot I'm sure a 13 would not fit
Sorry

summer weight that will be hard velvet is a heavy material I'm 5'10" and my robe is heavy

I see they have a new member posting and it list they are from San Francisco I might be wrong And to answer the question I know you would love to see the velvet before you buy it but you will find better deals from a online seller/store maybe you might find some that will send you samples in the mail
