Does anyone know of a good pattern to use to make this? Online tutorials? Has anyone made this shirt?

Is Obi-Wan's undertunic in ROTS much different from the other movies? The material looks a little heavier, but otherwise it looks about the same as for the other movies.
For undertunics, I ended up making my pattern from other patterns. It's a basic, pull-over shirt with extra long, tight sleeves and an over-lapping v-neck collar. The edges of the v-neck don't show under the tunic and the front of the shirt is just one layer, instead of the overlapping layers of the tunic.

Yes, the collar is folded over 3 times. I wondered if there is a good shirt pattern to use.

It seems like the collar is much higher in the Ep III undertunic... not as much skin showing...

To get that, just cut the neck opening a little smaller and make the "cross-over" a little higher angle. I did a ObiWan ep3 undertunic for my membership application (it's in my current banner, as of 9-27-07 anyway). I can't remember off hand how I did the folds, but I remember constructing the tri-folded collar band before attaching it to the shirt. It was rather bulky and has kind of a messy seam that is not visible unless you turn the shirt inside-out.

It was rather bulky and has kind of a messy seam that is not visible unless you turn the shirt inside-out. The same thing happened to Corja when he made his collar, but we were able to re-do it so that it fits snugly. It helps to have someone else to pin it in place around your neck for a custom fit! It came out great--- no bulk, and no seams showing! He says it's much more comfortable now. Thanks for all the input... It would be nice to develop a pattern for this shirt.

Glad you got it snug Though its always nice to have someone who knows how to pin something on your neck....if not it can really hurt!
