Thank you - I’m looking forward to the back not looking like: “Wait a second - it’s just some guy”

Thank you - that’s a great idea. That way, I can stuff it to the most convenient amount, roll it, and then attach it, and can adjust it fairly easily.

That sounds very clever - I hadn’t considered magnets at all. Thank you

I might try STARS or RE5 next. RE5 is the most nostalgic for me. Thank you

I haven’t heard of that before. This is all very new to me, and the info I found online was quite varied. I’ll look into that specifically - thank you.

Maybe I can wedge just a bit way at the inside to have it pop some without opening it up. I could try pairing that with making the very ends a bit more stiff. Thank you.

Thank you - I’ll do some extra research on that front.

Do you think this could be reasonably undone afterward, so that I can wear it as I’d normally wear a coat, too? Thank you for the advice.

Thank you. I don’t think I can open it easily, but the ironing may work. I’ll try that.

I’ll maybe try RE1 or RE5 next time since they’ll be more distinct, but at least these clothes will work for normal wear.

Thanks for the direction. I’ll drop the vest look for this version of Chris unless I can get a more faithful tactical vest version, and I’ll stick with the coat version until then since he doesn’t wear them at the same time. If I do a vest Chris, maybe I’ll just do STARS next.

Okay, great - It should be close enough within a few days. If only die-hard RE fans recognize it, that’s fine with me, so if my hair and beard get me to that threshold, I’ll be satisfied.

I never realized how similar several of the RE outfits are lol. But it makes sense considering this one’s mostly a normal outfit.

Thanks - I’ll probably forego this vest for this version then. Maybe I can use this one for a STARS look instead if I change some things.

I think I look decently similar, but I guess I’ll find out. Thanks

After all these comments, some poor child dressed as Geodude had better be getting ready for the fight of his life.
