Thread: Jedi Color cordination......How should it go?

    Default Jedi Color cordination......How should it go?

    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.

    Being so great, the owner of these wonderful forums and attached shop has filmed how to build an MHS hilt, here's the link:

    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

    (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.





    Theres a member on the RL named green thorn. he did a really good corran horn interpritation(sp). So I like how he did it but I dont want to copy some ones idea ya know.

    And I found this one thats pritty intresting interpritation.

    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.
