  1. Kate finished the skirt this week.  It's hard to see when it's not on a real person, but it does have two slits--one over each thigh.

    She also made the leather forearm wraps.  They are lined with the same fabric used on the sides of the top, which is pretty darn cute.  They have a discrete zipper on the underside of the forearm.

     

     

    Looking good. She can have but doesn't have to have slits so it is fine either way.

    The wraps look comfy. How are you going to add the lines so they looks wrapped/gathered?

    If making the obi version, be sure the belt is the right details. The belt when she wears the obi is different from the others, 

     

    She's only wearing it a couple times in the comics, here:

    and when she battles Anakin on Curuscant.

  2. Looking good.

     

     

    Due to the boning, Kate says it lays very flat and immobile in the front, so we should only need hidden attachments in the back to keep it from flapping up.

     

    Be sure. A little tacking down on all sides is probably a good idea.

     

    How does it feel, is it reasonably comfortable to wear?

  3. It is looking good, keep up the great work.

     

    I wouldn't use this as reference, though the person who made it has done a lot of concept art, i think this was just for fun/fan art (there is no indication they worked on anything Star Wars).

    The Dark Horse Republic comics have some of the best references for this Ventress.

    etc.

     

    Both styles of shoulder armour are fine, she was drawn both ways, all good.

  4. Sounds good. (Side note, she didn't plan to be bald either...long story). But the profile images in all the Ventress CRL's are her beautifully bald head.

     

    Medical grade prosthetic adhesive is the way to go just make sure your skin is dry, and no make-up on it yet.

     

    She'll watch this more closely. Do tell if we can help on it.

  5. The key is that it can fit you without being baggy.

     

    I'll see if I can get Brita to share some information on a couple of your questions (She's the model for the concept Ventress). She's made or helped make it for a couple ladies in the Legion.

  6. Hello Michael,

    I did use the link, fellowed the prompts but couldn't find for the life of me, the "501st user Profile" to place the URL...either I'm blind or going nuts.

    My number was already there not my garrison.

     

    I have now "liked the fb page"

     

    I still cannot see the page

     

     

    New users added to group successfully.

    I'll check on the other, but you've been added.

  7. Welcome MJ. In order to be part of the detachment you need but ask. Instructions can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2722 as well as on The Flagship page on Facebook.

     

    You can see the candidates because you join the detachment and Thomas approved you on the main 501st page. This one isn't connected.

     

    Let me know if you have any trouble with it, thanks.

  8. Glad the notes made it. :)

     

    Brita's father and I custom made the emitters from scratch to match the hilts for the Sideshow 12 inch figure that was out.

    They were lathed from wood, sanded, painted with alternating matte and satin black paint and sanded again in-between with 400 grade black sandpaper to give it the finished look.

     

    I made a diagram of it if you'd like. I could share a pdf of it, just let me know.
