I got the wig out last night to inspect it, because I realy just opened the box, applied the makeup, and put it on. I was very excited, LOL. So I got to look at it last night in good detail. I found another coin on the wig.

I relised something kept giving a flash glint in the photos. Turns out there was another coin up at the top of the pony tail in the back!

Same little chinese coin that is on the bottom, but sure enough, it's there.

It was behind the pony tail, so it couldn't be seen.

The upper one is actualy a little bit darker than the lower one, but the markings appear to be the same on the side that is showing out. :

Mabey I'll find more coins in it/on it.

Here's my rings, my favorite part aside from the belts of the costume. The only one I think I'd upgrade from here would be the skull ring. But I think the MR one looks just fine. :

So I got my wig out, found that old Rubies sack, and put took some pics.

Here a while back my friend Dave sent me some lace for my CJS. I had planned to start weathering my sash yesterday, but instead, I ended up doing this. LOL.

So here's my trophy lace from a beatuiful young wench after I got the Pearl back.

(The young wench in question NOT being Dave.

I do beleive I have just secured a few very awesome peices for a VERY good price.

Leather belts, one with an ACME buckle, the other with a EMPIRE buckle. (The highest quality one can buy.) A Master Replicas metal sword (Once again, highest qulity reproduction!) with a leather sheath.

So now...pending pics of POTC 4 Jack and the arrival of these items....I need the following :

Kuchi Long Dangle (Easy)
Shirt - (Found someone to make a lines one for $70. Most accurate available no less!)
Animal Pelts - (Also way easy, $20. Although I'm looking for faux pelts...So it'll be easier than ever.)
Pants - Found out Costumebase offers good pants for $30! Great price, and accurate even!
Vest - Gonna buy one from Yourdreem, price went up, but after working with my mate Jants, the guy who makes them has them down to a T being accurate.
Boots - My soul...My soul! I do swear these cost way to much.

But these items may have to wait....

Hat - $200USD from ACME
Baldric - Still undecided on this bit...

I envy you for your attention to the smallest detail. Looking fantastic bro!

It's really coming together beautifully.

I'm jealous, though. I've been hunting for one of those coins with the hole cut in the center from the Orient for a few years to finish off a bit of embroidery I did.
