Ok so I plan on doing something to the lines of a corellian jedi so something green has to be in my costume.

Iam jumping back and forth on a couple ideas here.

First is a green outer and inner tunic with sandy tan paints tabbards and obi.

Second is a Green outer tunic, tabbards and obi with sandy tan paints and inner tunic.

Robe will be brown but a redish chocolate brown if I can find the fabric in that color.

Again Iam looking for ideas on what type of fabric to use. I need something that will work well in both winter and summer.

Thanks and good day

My choice would be Dark green outer, dull green inner & V.dark green robe with bloodstripe pants.

Check 'I, Jedi' (book) or anything about Corran Horn or Nejaa Halycon on wookieepedia.

It's always open to interpretation though, I doubt there's strict guidelines on it.

I must admit I like the idea of the green robe (bottle green mayhaps).

If I were to make a corellian out fit, I would probably have dark green outer, black inner and pants (with blood stripe of course). Possibly lighter green for tabbard.

Alternative, so it doesn't look too sithy, could have a medium grey inner tunic and tabbard. Maybe pants in same grey. Kinda like dark green/grey combo.

Damn, thats getting tempting, shame my red hair doesn't go well with green.

Maybe you should consider some kind of Leprechaun Jedi thing.

Think I may be a bit to tall for a Leprechaun, but still pretty funny
Edit: "Ah, to be sure, ye have tha force in ya, ye do!"

(Was there a jedi with red hair other than Mara Jade?)

Indeed the LOTR cloaks were pretty spiffy, kinday greyish green IIRC.
Could work quite well.

Hum intresting. Thanks for the color ideas guys Iam gonna Have to run alot of decissions thru my pellow.

I was also thinking of maybe layer the tunics like make the inner tunic long like almost knee length and then the outer tunic 3/4 that, then the tabbards would end a 1/4 of that.

But I still got alot to think about for color cordination.

Here are a couple pics of what I have found.

That shot of Corran Horn is way off from his actual outfit. Horn uses the same colors that are used by Corsec (green, black, and gray). Also, i'm not sure bloodstripes are a good idea on a Jedi. I have a couple reasons for this:

1) They are one of the highest Corellian Military awards. Not every Corellian character should have them despite how cool they are. In fact, you probably would have to be an actual member of the Corellian military to even qualify for them (unless they are honorary or something).

2) The Jedi order might frown on the wearing of Bloodstripes on a traditional Jedi outift. Might suggest to much militarization in a person who is supposed to be a peacekeeper instead of a soldier.

From what I understand horn has like 3 or so different costumes.

But Iam not going for a person just a corellian jedi style so Iam taking ideas from other ideas and putting them togeather.

and finding more pics of jedi in green garb just makes things worse.

Very Ki-adi.
This is one of the more recognised ones.
Take a look at JR's saber holster pics, the blood stripes don't look too bad behind a saber.
I'd just do your robes how you want, but in green. There is no set standard for it.

no, the bloodstipes look great with the saber if you are going for a nontraditional jedi costume. i'm talking about more of the canon Jedi Order outfit.

Healers?

Basicly the same robe pattern just alot of pleats to make it get that billow effect.

I think he's referring to the KOTOR I Jedi robes. They were all the same design, but in different colors. There was brown, blue, and orange/red, and also different shades of black for the Dark Jedi. I've wanted to do one myself for a long time, but I cant find the time. You'd have to make/modify a pattern to be able to do those robes. It shouldn't be too difficult, though.
