  1. I think before you repaint that yourself that you should contact her and ask her to redo it with the pattern you asked her to do it with. Same thing with the gloves. You paid her to give you an approvable Visas Marr, and you gave her your measurements. So why are you spending money on paint and new gloves from Spirit Halloween when you paid her to make these things for you already? Just my opinion.
  2. One thing I didn't realize when I ordered my costume from her is that the CRLs for the 501st and Rebel Legions appear to be identical, but they're not. I told Tabitha I was going for 501st approval and didn't mention the Rebel Legion. My costume got approved by the 501st but it got knocked down by the Rebel Legion because the gloves have five stripes on them. The 501st CRL says, "four or five" stripes, but even though the Rebel Legion has the same photos and what appears to be the same exact language/text, the Rebel Legion has changed little things like the acceptable number of stripes on the gloves
  3. Requesting access to the 501st and TFE restricted sections. My Visas Marr KOTOR II costume was approved yesterday! https://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=28980 Donesies! -DL
  4. The lipstick drove me crazy when my husband took my approval photos on Sunday. I put it on so dark, yet in my original set of photos (in front of the blue blanket) it doesn’t look like I have any on at all! So I smeared a ton of it on and even though my teeth had chunks of Vaseline on them, all of my teeth were red and pink so I did a closed-mouth smile for my bucket off photo. Below is the link to the photos I submitted. I understand there may be a significant issue with the costume, which someone else here in the Flagship Eclipse sent me a personal message about. We are going to wait and see what my Garrison GML says. Someone in my Garrison who is not the GML but was my costume advisor when I was joining thought something might be said about the light saber. So I dunno. I cried twice already even though I haven’t heard anything from the Garrison GML yet because that’s just how I am. I am both hopeful and planning any potential corrective actions at the same time so I am not crushed no matter what the GML comes back and says. I am very thankful for the love I am feeling here at the Flagship Eclipse. http://imgur.com/a/c8ipYOw
  5. OK. I sent them on to the GML. My advisor told me he thinks the boots and the light saber are going to be an issue. The light saber is the Ultra Sabers Shock, so I don’t understand why it would be an issue. If the boots are an issue, I have another pair. But I’m going to be REALLY upset about the light saber. The person who made the one in the CRL doesn’t even make them anymore.
  6. Here's the link to my submission photos. I sent the the link to the Garrison Carida costume advisor who helped me with my Jawa for his opinion before I send the link to my GML. I was so mad when I realized that my lipstick didn't look dark enough in the original set of photos. I left the originals for non-veil pictures and then retook the veil pictures with the lipstick slathered on darker. Why can't anything go right the first time? Sigh. Please tell me what you all think. https://imgur.com/a/c8ipYOw
  7. You just made my day! These are going to be so comfortable to troop in!
  8. I did buy a pair of boots, but now I see these in the store and I think I like them better. But they are only mid-calf. But my dress goes to the ankles anyway. Do you think these would be acceptable? Are they too scrunchy? http://imgur.com/a/s9U5sU0
  9. I ordered a Senegence 24 hour with the gloss, too, but it hasn’t arrived yet and I want to take advantage of the good weather this weekend and have my husband take my photos. The only photos I have right now are of me where I just threw the costume on real quick on Wednesday night when the costume arrived to check the fit. I’ll share the nice photos here this weekend.
  10. My Visas Marr is done except I didn’t buy lipstick. I’m in the US. Is there any particular shade and brand that meets the CRL? I plan on going to my local Sephora and CVS tonight after work and compare the CRL photo on my phone with what’s in the store. My complexion is extremely pale and translucent Caucasian and my natural lips are pale red.
  11. Yes, a picture would be helpful, if it's not too much trouble.
  12. If I were buying one today, I'd jump on that. Out of curiosity, Are these two different blades that you have, or does the saber have the RBG board?
  13. Thanks everyone for your input. <3 I want the Vader's Vault REV-N, but I may end up with the Ultra Sabers Shock for price reasons.
