blackjohn Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 It was about this time last year, son #2 found my Imperial Guard helmet, and suddenly wanted to play dress-ups. So we came up with this impromptu costume. Cute. Abject evil. Cute. Abject evil... ...and the Universe imploded. Thanks. Heh... you'll get to see how cute/evil they can be in a couple years... My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
blackjohn Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I'd be wary of the force-tube It's not as bad as their lightsabers... which are their "most frequently placed on time out" toy. I tell them, "no thrusts! And the face is not a legal target." But do they listen... nooo. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Rats Posted December 18, 2008 Posted December 18, 2008 OK I just had to bump this back up... since everyone looked so sharp and I didn't want the thread to get lost somewhere's in Limbo!! No rest for the wicked! Wait a minute... that's me?!
blackjohn Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Kicking around various ideas of "things to do"... dug up these from about 6 years ago... no wonder son#1 doesn't like reenacting! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Rats Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Excellent look you guys!! And just for the record, I'm told that boys were in dresses till they could wear shortpants!! OK I have to find more of mine!! No rest for the wicked! Wait a minute... that's me?!

Jack Roberts Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Jack, you make a better PC Pyrate. Haha, I bet! I sure like playing PC pyrate better but this is fun.
Stynky Tudor Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Carrying around a bottle of Sailor Jerry, I was suppose to be a disgruntled Cracker Jack Boy. . . but I think I look a little happy for that. Not very imaginative I know, but it went over well at a party of where most dressed-up in their usual pirate garb. Photo by Kendra Pirate Master Halloween 2008
RustyNell Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 OMG Stynky.... ummmmm.... I LOVE IT!! You look great in that uniform sailor!! “PIRACY, n. Commerce without its folly-swaddles, just as God made it.” Ambrose Bierce

Mission Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Photo by Kendra Pirate Master Halloween 2008 The first thing I thought of when I saw this was, "C'mere little girl...you want some candy?" Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

RedJessi Posted May 6, 2009 Author Posted May 6, 2009 I recently went to comic book con dressed as an employee of Mooby's - the fictional fast food chain in Kevin Smith's movies. One of my next projects is to recreate a Nostromo Crew jacket from Alien. I just got the base jacket from ebay uk a few weeks ago. Haven't had to start it yet, but here is the jacket - a Royal Airforce MK III circa the mid 60s.
Red Cat Jenny Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Lol Stynky. You do look great but I have to agree with lady B, you never look completely innocent. Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...

Haven't had to start it yet, but here is the jacket - a Royal Airforce MK III circa the mid 60s. Awesome! So how did you know to use that as the basis for your kit? (Duh... like, there's gotta be a website somewhere right, or a forum, devoted totally to Alien Reenactors). That movie had some of the best costumes. I can remember seeing a bunch of them at Disney World back in '90. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.

I can remember seeing a bunch of them at Disney World back in '90. There is a website! lol http://forum.alienslegacy.com I am a looooong time Alien quadrilogy fan and this will be my first actual created reenactment (The Mooby gear above was put together though purchases and swag from being a part of Kevin Smith's web community). My first step will be to dye the jacket to try to get it from the drab olive to a more blue/grey shade. Which will be nerve wracking! lol
Cheeky Actress Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 This is a costume that Tracy made for Liam. The letter opener really sells it. OMG! He is the very picture of Royalty, William. Perfect! be careful...he'll poke his eye out Member of "The Forsaken"
