looks great, but be carefull; I made the mistake of wearing a jean jacket underneath it (same AA satnjacket) and a big hole appeared on the right side. It is a very cheap jacket.

I had actually planned on doing the same thing. Did a button wear through or what?

How does screen printing work exactly? Do I just go into a place that does it, give them the jacket and a pdf file and they'll do it for me?

Pretty much. A buddy of mine actually owns his own Tshirt business, so he had his graphic designer turn my image that I gave him into a file that could be used to make a new screen. Now because they had to create a brand new screen for this image, it was a little pricey, but not too bad. I'm thinking the price will vary from shop to shop, depending on what type of equipment they use. I went ahead and had a couple white Tshirts made with the scorpion on the back for my friends and I too. I even took hot pink puffy fabric paint and wrote the cursive "Drive" logo on the upper left chest. They turned out pretty nicely.

btw, does anybody have Erin Benach (the costume designer) email address? I need to contact her regarding another Gosling related costume.
thanks

Read the thread. Someone posted theirs earlier.
I thought I read through it all (I've been here since the first post, but I just barely joined today) I can't find it though

Just finished! I can't wait until this weekend! I'll have to post a couple pics of the whole costume put together. Good luck to everyone else making their own!

I updated the PDF at http://www.majidnolley.com/scorpion.pdf to include the shading pattern that I used when I made my jacket. Feel free to open it up in illustrator and tweak any of the anchor points if you want.

Get Go Retro is completely sold out on their first two runs for the jacket. 3rd run arriving in February.
Long time lurker. Looks like I ran out of time to put together anything decent after I tried on the AA jacket and decided it was too cheap and see-through to invest $45 and a lot of time to make a less than decent jacket. I'll probably be aiming for next year and putting something nice together.
To contribute something, I found these diamond stitched flight jackets that would work awesome as a base if they came in white or cream. I don't know if they could be bleached or what but maybe they could at least be used as a pattern or something.

November 11 (First run) is just around the corner so hopefully pics of the finished product will be revealed soon. Plus we have Indy's jacket to look forward to as well. It'll be interesting to see how they compare to each other.
New to register here but been following this forum since this thread started. Can't wait for the Indy jacket. Here's my knockoff that I'll be goin to Vegas with for the weekend. The printers kinda messed up the placement of the thermoprint but it was only 25 bucks so no biggee.
