New visor advice?

Hi gang! An especially vigorous BAT session left me with a cracked visor. Any recommendations for buying a new one? I was looking at Fenix Props, but I thought I'd check in here first.

Re: cooldevo's ROTJ WIP

You're looking great!

Where'd you get the visor? I have a black tint right now, but have been toying with red, and really like yours.

Re: Possible outer robe pattern?

I gave that one a good, long look. Ultimately, I went with M2060 (https://mccallpattern.mccall.com/m2060). I used the basic robe pattern for my under robes, then modified it for the outer. I eliminated the sleeves and added width (maybe 6 in to each side?).

Re: Robes WIP

Thanks, guys. That's what I was thinking length-wise. I'm waiting on boots and gloves (both this week, hopefully), before I make the alterations. I did NOT think about a slit in the inner robe. Good call. Here's the outer robe. I will do the lining next, which should settle down and close up the arm...

Robes WIP

Hi gang, Here are some pics of my robes in progress. I haven't hemmed the inner robes yet, and was thinking about shortening the sleeve length a bit. The outer robes are obviously made from muslin. No hemming here either, and the right shoulder is only pinned in place in these pics. I am planning on...

Custom gloves?

After botching two gloves myself, I'm looking for some help. I'm in central Maryland looking for a relatively nearby tailor who could make me a pair (or even two). I have the fabric and thread.

Any recommendations?
