Chicago.Jedi in costume

I have been bumming around this forum for a while, posting pictures of sabers I have built, but it occurred to me that I have never posted a picture of my full Jedi costume. I recently did some improvements to it and took some pictures so I figured this is a good time to share some pics of my Rebel Legion approved costume.

I did all of the sewing myself. I am a noob to saber smithing but I am very experienced and accomplished in sewing and costume design. The tunic, tabbards, inner tunic, and cloak were all hand made by me. I also hand made the belt and all of the pouches from scratch. The boots are modified Red Wing welders boots. I made the padded collar to make them the proper height for RL approval. The pants are from Walmart (it was just easier that way).

Here is a close up of the saber. It is the first TCSS saber I built and it is still my favorite. I simply call it The Knight. It has a green Rebel Star and NB sound card.

A great costume. Very nice, complimentary saber.

Yes very nice. Love the saber too.

Nice work on the costume...the saber is also looks very nice. Great job on both. Since you are very experienced with costumes, would you mind if I 'PM' you some questions?

I have a simple costume I did but no custom saber yet. Its leather tabbards and obi, did the mock turtle neck shirt style type, its a brown and black color theme for my costume. Black shirt, pants, and belt, then brown tabbards, obi, and boots. =] I'll get a custom saber done eventually though.

Looks really proper...
Nice Job

If any city needed a Jedi........it's yours. Nice work!:D
