Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Awesome!
That looks really cool. ![]() I'm going to be working on the same costume (although I've collected a few of the pieces already)... Where did you find some of the pieces? - I'm having a hard time finding the right goggles, the little leather strap across the 'brim' of the helmet, and a place to get the correct harness... |

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
death - try here for the goggles... http://whatpriceglory.com/shopexd.asp?id=886&bc=no
Most of the harness and ammo belt stuff you can find on atthefront or on ebay, just need to get the right combo of gear to make it all together. Its made from all legit WWII gear, Map pouches and strap, cartridge belt stuff, suspenders...then you have to custom some stuff together with extra D-rings. For the helmet, you will need to get stuff to change it over to the paratrooper hardware, that will come with the leather strap you need as well as all tha a-strap and other pieces.

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Looks awesome, are you going to weather the costume at all? i think it would look even better if you weather the web gear and jacket a little.

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Looks great. I'm doing a helmet for myself too. I really like the WW2 costume. I've got the goggles (from the same place as you) and the airborne liner....just need to pick up a nice M1 :-)

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Nope, you have to go full-on reinforced paratrooper 82nd style for the trousers to be legit, you can tell by Cap's leg strap that was the style they used for his outfit.

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
thanks fellas... the outfit will debut at DragonCon this week, sadly I won't be there to enjoy it this year, but a fellow member will be sporting the outfit and is even marching in the parade...
I think he actually fits the part better than I do, so it should go over pretty well. Next I'll have it out at NYCC in Oct. Coach - got my boots on ebay, really accurate, I'll try to grab the vendor for you. The gloves I got the same place as the goggles, whatpriceglory...but atthefront and others do have that same style also. |

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Yeah, it looked awesome! Is that one of Irish's shields? Or did you make that one? Great job on the whole suit.
I was thinking about doing the one he's wearing as he pics up the prototype shield, and also making just a plain grooved prototype shield to go with it.

Re: Captain America USO WWII outfit.
Fields - thanks! Neither on the shield, that is actually the licensed Marvel one that came with the plaque and all that was out a while back before all the movie and hype. Can't find them for under $900ish nowadays it seems.
kristina - yeah, but sorry I missed doing it with you guys this year...would've been a blast. thanks CJ |
