  1. I've never tried to print directly from Illustrator or Photoshop actually so I don't know. But since it a pdf file there should be other, simpler softwares you can use to open the file and print it, like Preview or Acrobat Reader or something~ 

    Tell me if your problem persists. I could also send it to you in .jpg file if that's more convenient? 

     

    For the belt buckle you should check the other Ventress topics. Mine was 3D-printed, but other cosplayers have tried different things.

    What would it cost to have your friend 3D print a buckle. I will pay for shipping also?

    How do you connect your belt buckle to your belts?

  3. I am not sure. I know I click on Print and it shows part of the design in the box that would be the sheet to print and then nothing. I opened it in Photoshop and cropped each tabbard into 8x10 sheets and saved each sheet. I have 4 sheets to print per tabbard to size them to me. Fingers crossed that it will work. 

     

    What has everyone used to create the belt buckle? I do not have access to a 3D printer. Was hoping to get ideas from other ladies

    Thanks in Advance

  4. I drew the pattern of the tabbard on Illustrator, using BBC527's cool photo as an outline :)

     

    I drew it as a vector (see attached file in pdf), so you make it as big or small as you want and it will still look nice :) (it's 1m tall in the pdf)

    It's really easy to change the size, so anyone can use it if they want, it fits on 8 sheets of paper when you print it. Feel free to share the file with anyone if you think it could be useful for future cosplayers!!

     

    I made it with 3 different size at the bottom, since I can't decide which one is best x) I would say the first one is too large at the bottom, and number 2 or 3 are better. What do you think?

    So I opened this in Adobe Illustrator and I am trying to print but I keep getting the pages you are trying to print are al blank but I can see your 3 tabbards. I am not familiar with Illustrator. Please help

    Thank you

  5. So I met up with my seamstress and went over what we need to start building. We have questions. 

    1. Can the tabard fabric be mulberry and the pattern painted on with the golden tan?

    2. Can the tabard be attached to the belt buckle instead of the skirt? if not why attach to the skirt?

    3. The belt Buckle. What is the diameter of the buckle 3 1/2 in or 4 in. What is everyone making them out of? Also behind the rectangle is a design. What is the design? And is the rectangle and triangle recessed?

    Thanks for all the help
