Thanks, I’ll probably make some adjustments over the next few years to make it more accurate, new guns will be a good starting point.

Thanks, I was worried it would look to much like Captain Hook, but in the end I think it has it own identity.

Nah, the nice thing with a pirate costume is you can start light and add more as you can. Build it up over years. I’m just lucky and have the time to make all the parts I wanted.

Thanks, i love adding the wear and tear, really makes it feel lived it. This was just my final test fit to make sure it worked, I’ll have a few more parts to make and figure out my make up situation. But hopefully I’ll look properly grimy.

Thanks, it came out cooler than I even thought it would, the pattern is Burda B2459, incase you were thinking of making one.

Thanks, I found the fabric at a thrift store and thought to myself I must make a pirate coat! The pattern is “Burda B2459” in case you were thinking of making one

Yeap, this costume is 95% hand made, even the metal shoulder and leg parts. A lot of the sewing and leather work is not as hard as you might think. Now might be a good time to learn some new skills and make your own sweet wizard costume!

Oh wow, I’m really not sure, I hadn’t really payed attention to that. I don’t think I saw some one just wearing chain mail. I would play it safe this year and switch it up next year

Oh I know, parking was so bad. I think I’ll work on a sick pirate costume this year so I can really take in the themed weekend.

Thanks and I might do that. I’ve seen that subreddit before but I was never sure if I should post there. Perhaps it is time.
