Salvaging a gift

Post by Derryth »

Somebody got me the imperial guard cloak/robe/sash/glove set from cosplaysky when they heard I was looking to become a guard. It just arrived and as I'm looking at it (as well as reading forum posts) I notice a couple of things that don't meet requirements. The crafter in me wants to believe I can salvage this gift I stead of scrap it. Tell me......is it worth saving?

With the right material I can redo the lining on the outer cloak, and it will be easy to alter the sash, but is this a worthwhile effort as a whole?

In my opiniom it seems to be a RotS cut. The gloves look like they belong to a RotS Guard too. The belt ist the wrong colour.
The Robe is the wrong material, so seems to be the underrobe.
I can only speak of what i see on their website. Never seen it in reality.
Only usable part if you dye it seems to be the neckseal.
Sorry.
Better start a new one.
