Béatrice's Mara Jade

[Guest Anonymous]

Hello all !

 

Finally i began my Mara Jade costume !

it was one of my wanted costume, even before the Darth Nihilus

 

my first shoot to check the problem and how it suits me

 

a lot of work now !

the jumpsuit is too big in the legs

the leather for the belt and the shoulder harness, look like too thin for me ! and the system for the shoulder straps may be modified

 

i have to buy the gloves those in the pics are my boyfriend's one !

 

some modifications for the gun

 

and i have to scratch my head to find a solution for my insulin pump !

 

but here are the pics of this :

 

 

 

 

 

 

and one with my best fan

if you see some points to modify please tell me

Yay! You told me a long time ago that you wanted to be Mara... I'm glad to see that you're making the costume! (Next you will need a Mara patch!)

 

I'm also glad to see that you're working to make the costume the best that you can. You're good at working on costumes until they match the references well.

 

Do you have a pair of goggles to wear around your neck?

 

The belt and shoulder harness would look better with a thicker leather, yes. You're right about that! Also, the shoulder harness should not have a belt end hanging off.

 

 

 

Are the shin guards made of a rigid material, such as plastic or fiberglass? (They look rigid from what I can see in the pictures, but I wanted to check because girls have been purchasing soft vinyl shin guards from someone on the internet lately, and soft shin guards are not approved for the 501st. Darth Vader would not wear floppy armor, and neither would Mara!)

 

What are you planning to do for the red hair?

 

For the insulin pump, you could make a pouch to hang on the belt. There are references that show Mara with pouches on her belt, and I'm sure the LMO would approve that medical adjustment to the costume!
