New Jedi build - Drake Aida - Alpha Prime - 18-08-2013

Hi guys,

Here's a formal Jedi outfit I'm working on. I've added some pics of: the current build & rough costume sketches.

Feel free to comment/add input. Smile

Slightly more daring.

Imagine with Jedi outfit made of brown variations.

Classic riding boot.

Could the buckled (Vos style) pair work for the old or new republic??

I like the 'slightly more daring' ones with the angular cut cuff Smile

Hey Alpha looks quite good, personally I would go with brown boots/belt combo myself but the black doesn't look out of place either. As for the boots I have a preference for the equestrian style. I'm not sure if the Quinlan Vos style ones will be approvable for a generic jedi, but the best way to find out is to put your thread up on the main Legion Jedi boards http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=21&sid=463ec51295106bebf566b3991b89c51b and get an opinion from one of the costume judges.

I have a pair of boots in the first shot that I use for my Rebel Fleet Trooper. Had to cut them down to calf height, as not many of these boots fit my calves without spending a lot of money.


RE: New Jedi build - Drake Aida - Alpha Prime - 19-08-2013

Hey Satay, I like that pair quite a bit too. Smile

Hey Stormraven, yeah, I think you're right about the Quinlan Vos style boots. They're pretty flashy for a generic Jedi. I'll run it by the council just in case. I signed up with the Rebel Legion on Saturday night - just waiting for the account to be made active by the administrator. Sleep

Hey Sniper, yep, the boots part is always pricy. I bought a pair recently for my Darth Maul build - it was steep. Hopefully I can use a more cost effective pair without having to alter them for this Jedi build. Cool

Thanks for the feedback guys!


RE: New Jedi build - Drake Aida - Alcfalath - 20-08-2013

New Rock boots, such as the ones you said are 'QV styled', will not be approvable.. Its a long argument that has been back and forthed for years and its still listed as not suitable for jedi.


RE: New Jedi build - Drake Aida - Alpha Prime - 21-08-2013

Yeah, I figured it was probably pushing the bounds. I'll just submit the other (more traditional) options to the Rebel Legion for approval.


RE: New Jedi build - Drake Aida - Alpha Prime - 15-09-2013

Quick update, I've added my Jedi build to the international Rebel Legion site. Just waiting for approval before I order my boots.

Hey Alpha this build is looking really good, and I see you got a few positive remarks on your build threat on the main boards. Big Grin

Hopefully we will see you approved soon. Cool
