Cheap Tennant Coat

[DinosaurinaFez]

So I'm working on a 10th Doctor costume for Halloween, with a VERY limited budget, and found this coat. I realize I may need to make some alterations, especially to the sleeves and the color, and I would love some feedback on whether or not it'll pass as Tennant's. I've also managed to Frankenstein together a brown suit, which I can post pictures of later for opinions as well

Aside from the colour, it doesn't look too bad. The main detail really would be the vent at the back. Where's the coat from?

I'd like info on this too, if it's really cheap - assuming it's not a one-off find from a yard sale or the like. I've been keeping my eyes open for really inexpensive Dr Who-ish clothes for a potential Dr. Whooves cosplay.

I found it on eBay for about $20, which was pretty good. And yes, it has the back vent. The biggest problems are going to be the color (it's wool, so it's going to be a pain to dye), and the sleeves, which are a bit too short and puffy

Well, the price was certainly right! I'm guessing this was just an individual getting rid of the coat they don't wear anymore? If not, and this deal is still out there, please share details (can't post auction links, but you can give us some search terms)!

The best advice I can give you is use really broad search terms ("Brown long coat," Brown Wool Coat," etc) and then narrow it down by size. Also, don't search by gender either. I'm a guy, and the coat is a women's, but it works perfectly. Just be sure to convert the sizes
