I thought you should always prewash fabric before you do any patters/sewing?
-
fabric is ordered, went with 25 to be on the safe side
-
Ok reading Scott's Nihilus guide he used about 20 yards of fabric. I am considering getting about 25-30 yards, seeing as I am a larger guy, 6ft 5" and about 300lbs. Anyone else able to share how much fabric they used

I wonder about taking the upper straps totally around the armor? That would give it a more complete look
-
debating the velcro between the front and back, but have not decided yet, have added ribbing to the front to keep the curve, part of the issue was when my wife helped me get into it it was not tight enough, hoping that tighter will help, and the capelet I must say is the biggest pain in the butt ever, just getting it on and fitted takes 2 people and me trying to be a contortionist lol
-
Ok I "think" I am at about 90ish% done. I still need to sew the piping across the shirt, I am raising the cloak about an inch or so to keep it off the floor, and so I can velcro the back of the capelet into it to keep it fitted better, and still have to trim the black sash in the front, wanted to get some pics so I could see the sizing before I cut it. Want to get folks opinions

Love the saber, can they be bladed as well?

Rob has been great, he even modified the bracers so they would fit my larger Revan size, started painting new vinyl today to see if I can get it looking correct. I really want to give the Vaders a run for their money lol
-
So I have received my Revan from My Wicked and am starting the mods on it, due to my size I have quickly learned I am going to have to totally replace the center silvery/black vinyl panel since I am 6ft 5. Luckily Rob was able to tell me how it was done, and now I just need to practice some on the material. Sharing some pics to get folks opinions. Also when I do the center, I will be lowering the Big ring to a more appropriate place

That might me a good thing lol, I have large feet, size 13, and a little more room might be good

found boots I like, I know I will have to remove one strap, but overall I like the look http://www.shopyourway.com/diehard-mens ... /114231729
-
Oh I def want a good comfy boot, thats why I hate ordering offline, hard to try em on through the computer
-
Think I saw it, looked like motorcycle boots with a toe shifter strap if I am reading the right one. But def not cheap

Working on my biker scout build atm, but I am really thinking of doing a Revan first part of the year. I love the look of him, and with my build, I think I could pull off a good Revan( I am going to be one Big scout lol) Fairly certain I am going to try and get wickedarmor for the armor, it is beautiful.
Any advice from anyone who has done one?
I have read a lot of the posts, but quite a few are old so wanted to see what people had to say.
I see the boots are black or gray, would this be a good base boot, or is black a better option http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Mens-Premium-Stylish-Leather-Winter-Snow-boots-Faux-Fur-Lined-Black-/251151305768?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&vti=Color%09Grays&hash=item3a79c8cc28
Has anyone found a good place for sabers? Looked at several of the saber sites, but it seems everyone is slightly wrong to be a Revan saber, and I would like to get one with light and sounds.
As I said, just starting this journey and I want to make sure I do it as well as possible and do lots of research
Bigger Revan mask

Has anyone made, or know anyone who makes a larger Revan mask with a bigger eye slit. I have a huge noggin, and really need a bigger mask for it to be comfortable(or at least more comfortable) and a bigger slit to help not get a headache squinting
