Wow Marcus!! I haven't logged in here for a while so I totally missed you finishing up your costume sorry! But wow!! it looks amazing!!
I love the robes!! They look absolutely gorgeous! Heck, the whole suit does lol Congrats!

Mine is actually thin enough to be able to cut with scissors but sturdy enough to be a lens. I am planning to leave open a gap for air and I am going to try and place a tiny fan in to suck in fresh air. Right now it is just attached with painters tape but I want to create an area in between like som...

My GML approved it since it is red and it is hiding my eyes quite well. I ordered it from this store on the Bay

He ships super fast and the visors are great

I can't wait to see your robes!

I like the foam padding idea! I might have to look into that :) My gap isn't that big but you can obviously tell im female lol. There might be a way to create a soft vader type shoulder armor that I could wear underneath.. I had a vader shoulder armor on my dummy when I was sewing the robes lol! I w...

Thanks guys! I am pretty excited! Good thing I have "natural" padding so I don't have the helmet gap up front lol!!

I send in my pictures to our GML for approval woohoo :) Keeping my fingers crossed. Here some shots of me finally wearing the guard robes :trsuit: http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/205593_10150588443225241_678800240_18286928_343226_n.jpg http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/22...

Haha yeah I really do have a tiny head. I think I even have room for a small fan I think lol. The visor is just taped in with blue painters tape for now so nothing is permanent yet until I know for sure what is approved or not. I might just have to do interchangeable visors if the mirrored one is no...

I was able to purchase a real Don Post and got to sanding, cutting and we finally had some decent weather so without further adue (or however you spell it lol!) http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/215211_10150584337400241_678800240_18253441_4253995_n.jpg http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hph...

I just used a dremmel tool and cut off the tip of the pool cue and sanded it to give it that rounded tip look. Then I got me a flex funnel like this one: http://images.motorcycle-superstore.com/ProductImages/300/0000_Blitz_Flex_Funnel_Blue.jpg and I stretched out the tip and cut only the last 5 ribb...

Good tip! I will try that. I don't want the silver to rub off on my cloak lol
