First velvet cloak done, finally!

Took years to get around to it, with making armor, weapons, blasters, etc :trsuit: but I'm walking the beat at Emerald City Comic Con this Saturday in my new duds: a velvet outer robe. I was lucky enough to have a couple of talented seamsters fit me up and mod a cloak pattern. It will be lined someday, but for now I'm going as guard light. I'm also skipping the pike this outing to better show off my blaster project in the works. The final fitting for your consideration, but not correction. This isn't a progress thread, so please keep criticism within. Thanks.

Thanks!
Needed help from a couple of talented seamstresses to get the details worked out. Left to my own devices I would have probably looked like a tent. I wore it to ECCC locally yesterday, had a great time with all the people wanting a pic with me. It was great that so many knew what I was! Being the only guard on duty in the place helped :trsuit:

The cape looks very well done. The creases and center V looks good. One thing though...the boots look all wrong, almost looks like they are a flesh in color. :lol:
