well i finally got my new costume and have posted the pics of it in my yahoo folder with the black costume. the belt and boots are only temporary until i can get more permanent ones. let me know though what you think? ;D f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ravenreturns1/album?.dir=/a6f8i plan on going with brown boots and a brown belt but the black belt shows up nice against the brown obi so i dont know. on the other hand i also have a black obi for the costume so i may use it with a brown belt.

I think it looks nice.:-) The backgrounds you have are very cool. I always loved sunsets. Very well done.:-) What's neat with the extra obiand belts and such you can get other looks. Go with it man, have fun.
may I ask, are you tunics from John Carool?

thanks Jauhzmynn. the only reason i ended up with 2 color obi and tabbards is cause i never could make my mind up on which i wanted. i only have the black tabbards now but i have about 2 square foot of brown leather to make them with.
never heard of john carool? the costume was made by a seamstress named kelly. she doesnt have a website and sells most of her jedi costumes on ebay. i was very impressed with the work she done on the black costume plus she usually can make the full costume and robe in about 3 days so excellent price, good work, and fast construction time was the reason i ordered from her again. she is out of florida so she may be close to you.

a full costume (outer tunic, inner tunic, pants, tabbards, and obi are 110 credits and the robe was 60 credits the last i checked. if you add pleather tabbards and obi, it goes up to 145 for the costume. she makes the costume to your size so you would need to ask her on the credits to make sure though.
the robe is not wool but that was fine with me since it is no fun to wear it if it's too hot. she is a very nice lady and i didnt worry at all about either of my orders with her. ALL of her 319 feedbacks on ebay is positive so that should say alot.

thank you xana. the backgrounds seem to be stealing the spotlight. i think i have around 14 different ones that i plan on using with some pics if i can ever quit playing SWG long enough to photoshop them.

I don't think they'er stealing the spotlight. They seem to add to it. Jedi do go to other worlds.;-)
They give it more dimension then a picture of someone standing in the hallway.

ROTFLMBO! actually you hit it right on the head mynn. before i put those backgrounds in, a hallway was near me in the original pic.
already did do xana, i sent them through the website then i emailed another pic to tanthos for good measure incase the other one didnt go thru.

Wow... really nice! I love the costume... and the black belt looks great with the brown tunic. I like the pattern tooled onto it.
Where did you get the backgrounds? Are they your originals? Very "otherworldly"!

mynn, leda, the backgrounds are not mine as i am not that far progressed in paint shop or photo shop. some i found here www.moodflow.com/home.htmthe others i will have to think on and try to remember. most of them i just stumbled on when i was putting a website together. i will post back more if i can recollect them. oh and thank you for the compliment leda. the belt on the pic is just a temp until i can get another but it serves it purpose quite well. i picked it up for $24 dollars from museum replicas website. here is a so so shot of the jedi temple interior www.theforce.net/multimedia/archive/Images/Episode_2/Locations/Jedi_Temple/aotc-
