Post by Imperial1971 »

I am looking for a quality BSG costuming group. May as well work on that while I am waiting for Museum Replicas to launch their Imperial Officer costume line...

Thanks in advance

I believe you IN6951... but I am a real authenticity freak. Screen accurate or bust!! I can't sew, therefore I am at the mercy of others.

Mike,

Have you tried the Colonial Fleet?

Myself, my wife and everyone who was in on the Viper Pilot project are members there. Excuse the goofy pic, but these are ours:

The Colonial Fleet is closed to new members. Strangest, most counter-productive thing I have ever seen. :roll:

The UPS man just arrived with my (expensive) PROPWORKS purchase... a screen worn OD fatigue uniform for a non-pilot, NCO extra. I have tried to capture as many details as possible for you fellow costuming frakkers that want to get it RIGHT! Notice the suede shoulder patches are dark OD green, not brown. This particular uniform was not given the fancy belt loop conversion. The boots have grass and dirt all matted in the soles... is this soil from New Carprica?? The "X" tee shirt is brown and both are made of a very soft cotton. The BDU set is rip-stop and made by Law Pro. The boots ar also made by Law Pro and have a costumer's tag inside that reads "young marine." FRAKKIN' cool!

Any other questions, please feel free to ask!

God I'd sell the farm for a Viper Pilot costume.

How much does one of those run?
