A sneak peak...

On the contrary, I try to assume as little as possible about life, as there's that saying "To assume is to make an A55 of U and Me" I don't always succeed in my goal, but I do strive not to make assumptions.


Did you design Anakin Skywalker's costume for Revenge of the Sith? You might not have traced an existing costuming pattern in order to get yours, but it is not by any means a design that you created. As I said in a previous post, I would love to see the kind of personal Jedi costume you could create if you were to go for something totally original, because from the research you have put into your Anakin costume, it would no doubt be incredible.


It makes all the difference in the world. You might have had a huge amount of input into the project, and you might have even cut the fabric for the seamstress to sew, but all the time it was her foot on the pedal and not yours, she is the one who deserves the credit for the final result, and at present, people seem to be under the impression that you personally made the costume yourself.


I admit, I am astounded that it cost so little to make, although even with trading, those original items (or services) still had a value of their own, and I think that needs to be taken into account. Some people do not have the resources (financially or through networking) to achieve such a fantastic costume. All the time costumes like your own are being paraded as the ideal standard for members costumes, how do you imagine it makes the people who sewed their costumes themselves from any material they could get feel? I don't take it personally, because I've always been more interested in lightsaber construction than the actual costume aspect of costuming, and I am determined that my next costume will be a quantum leap ahead of the one I have now, but I can appreciate how those other people may feel, but not have the courage to say themselves.
