Re: Fenixprops - Red Visor

Do Royal Guards need mics though? I know talking without one sounds crap but I can't imagine Royal Guards talking (blame the films!) I'm in that same mindset. However, those with more experience than I, have many tales to tell of interacting with children and other fans during events. My initial pl...

Re: Fenixprops - Red Visor

I can't be the only one who deals with these sets of challenges. As I bought a kit for my helmet, I got to size it. I added extra space to take into account adding extra things I wanted. I've got two air tubes (that blow fresh air up from my knees), a sound amplifier (so I can hear), and can fit a ...

Re: Fenixprops - Red Visor

I get a lot of painful feedback. Electricity and magnetism go hand in hand. As the mic moves through the magnetic field, it creates an electrical current, which results in screeches. Won't derail the thread, but there should be ways to negate/minimize that effect in a closed and mostly controlled e...

Re: Fenixprops - Red Visor

Magnets are not the best way to mount visors if you are using a mic inside your bucket. Trust me. That's a fairly broad statement covering an awful lot of different types of microphones and magnets. What effect are you claiming it has where two properly cupped magnets at eye level will cause proble...

Re: Fenixprops - Red Visor

I believe they are fine from the looks of them. Just keep in mind it'll be shipping from Argentina (could be pricey), and it still needs to be mounted into the helmet with magnets/velcro/etc. They say it's flexible and will bend to fit, which if true means it won't need to be shaped. Magnets are no...

Re: Under Robes Pattern Request

I think you'll find that your local fabric store will have some Passion Play patterns available at reasonable prices. Check out the shepherd's robes, etc...

What material are you using?
Linen. It's very comfortable, and most importantly breathes.

Re: Suede Boots?

The custom red suede boots I had made were $165. They look amazing and come with bragging rights, since my cobbler worked on Slave Leia's boots.
