Boba Fett Cape (ESB)

[darthmarce]

Hey Guys! I’m working on a small run of Fett ESB capes based on this vintage Civil War army blanket (link to thread on TDH below).They we be made from wool and woven on vintage looms (the same ones used to create the originals). The general consensus has been that this is a likely candidate for the materials used on film. I’m wondering if anyone has input on design/colors?

Cape - ESB Civil War Blanket Cape

Hey guys! I’ve been watching this forum for a while now and recently started my first ESB build. As I’ve been researching, it’s been difficult to find a lot of information on the original ESB cape. I know there has been much debate and speculation that the original was made from an army issue...

Thank you again curious what you think of the colors as I’ve seen a lot of variation due to the different lighting onscreen. I was planning on leaning into the green a bit more (like the reference shots and the vintage blanket). I’ve also see some versions go heavy on the orange tones for the stripe.

I used all the good reference images from the TDH Gallery to get these colors. One example is this image which looks good color wise:
