Child-sized MK VII bag (Indiana Jones)

[d_jedi1]

K.. so, I recently posted about making a child sized Jedi robe for my nephew who is at Disney right now (and will be wearing it this weekend )
After I posted about that I gave a preview of the Indiana Jones bag I had started.
Well, the bag is finished and I'm off to bed.
PICS
this morning

Like i mentioned in the other thread, I'm not trying for 100% accuracy. I'm trying to make a fun yet practical acessory for my nephew who recently acquired a love for Indy (by spending an afternoon watching the films with me and later playing the Lego video game)

Well, like I mentioned, it is finished and here it is

I hope you like it it didnt turn out too bad for a days worth of work.
Guess I'll start on my full sized one next

Looks excellent d Jedi! Your lad is a lucky kid having a talented dad like you.

he wishes his dad was as talented as me.. I don't have any children.
I might have forgot to mention that he's my nephew (wife's sister's kid). Blame lack of sleep for that

LOL, my bad, i just don't read properly. You did say he is your nephew! Well I wish my brother was as talented as you so that he could make cool stuff for his nephew (my son) it would save me making it lol

last night I got started on my full-sized bag. I'll post up pics later.
At the moment its a WIP but will probably be done either later today or tomorrow.

Thanks.. I'll have to put pics of my nephew wearing it on my photobucket later. it wasn't very hard to make.. well, sometimes, when I was sewing through like 5 or 6 layers of that fabric it would get tough but otherwise it wasn't bad. I cheated and used needle nose pliers to push/pull the needle through when it got that tough.
ok, I got the full sized one done today, here are some pics.. Much like the child-sized one, it's not 100% accurate but its what I wanted/needed.

a peek inside...

Here it is being worn. I'm 6'1" and between 185 and 190 lbs.. not wearing gear either
