Little bump, does anyone have thoughts on this? I'd like to get going on this costume. Thanks Jon Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Hi all Just getting started on Nihilus as my first attempt at an approved costume. It's likely to be a longer term project to get approved, but I'm hoping to wear it as a cosplay at Celebration in April. A friend of mine is a keen dressmaker and when I mentioned this to her, she was interested in making the robes and doing some weathering so we're going to make the COTF version. We've done some research and spent some time with the CRL, and it's not quite clear how the texture of the fabric should be. The sleeves need to be smoother, but how rough can the rest be? We got a few swatches from local stores and did find a very rough finished, loose weave fabric that I think could look very good, but wanted to check that it will fit in standards before buying anything. Here are a few swatches, with the roughest on the right. It certainly looks like it will weather very nicely. I've got a thread running in my local garrison page, but posting here has been the best suggestion for getting the fabric question sorted. Thanks Jon
