Let's just say that there are two things I'm passionate about...R2 units and Cylons. I have an R2 unit and had a nice Cylon costume but sold it to upgrade to a little more accurate look.
Many Cylon pieces are hard to come by....the battery belt, a good looking bulb scanner and I bet a lot would agree that the undersuit is one of the hardest things to get right.
I commissioned Shadowdale to make this suit for me because I knew that I was on a budget and couldn't sew to save my life (It did take a while...but the end result speaks for itself and I love it!). I was in constant communication with them during the whole process. I didn't provide them with anything other than reference pics from Dale’s awesome reference site over at “byyourcommand.net.”
By gosh.. for not having a screen used suit in front of them..they did a heck of a job.
I'd give this suit 7.5-8 out of 10 for quality and “the look.”
Definitely worth the wait and the price was VERY reasonable! Fabric is awesome, stitching is superb and they even included the hooks that the chain mail skirt attaches to. I totally forgot about those!!!
Now I will say that I’m not as anal as some guys…and I know there are a few minor tweaks that need to be made…but overall I’m very pleased and could not have done this without Shadowdale and the guys over at By Your Command.
Kudos to them!!! :thumbsup
