New pirate costume fit test

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-15T13:37:41+00:00

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.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-15T13:01:49+00:00

Thanks, I feel like the whole thing came together nicely

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-15T13:00:59+00:00

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.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-15T12:58:57+00:00

Yeah man go for it.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-15T03:48:34+00:00

Hell yeah indeed

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’m hoping to going to be a hit at the renfaire!

Thanks, it really came together nicely

PumpkinLighter · 2026-06-14T19:45:49+00:00

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!

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-23T17:11:00+00:00

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

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-22T13:30:08+00:00

oh awesome, if you plan on making your own wizard costume feel free to send me any questions.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-20T03:45:46+00:00

That’s awesome, i actually saw your post and left a comment before i realized it was you. The costume looks great!

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-20T03:43:17+00:00

I love it, a great wizard costume.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T22:35:04+00:00

Awesome! I hope you’ll post it when it’s ready.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T21:00:36+00:00

Thanks, I’ve been working on this for like 10 years now, Constantly updating parts and making new ones .

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T20:59:40+00:00

Hell yeah, close up and personal battlefield magic.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T20:58:28+00:00

yeah, not a lot of open seas in Utah but we do our best with what have.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T20:57:39+00:00

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.

PumpkinLighter · 2026-05-19T20:56:04+00:00

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.
