Finally got my Indy costume display done

Not sure if this should be here or in the costune area.

Here it is:

 

Looks great Brad! I've been waiting to see your finished pictures of this. I tried something similar myself a few years ago when I was just getting started in prop collecting. (It didn't turn out nearly as cool as yours did, but it was fun putting it together.) I still have the mannequin torso outside in my storage shed waiting for the ''never-ending dream'' of a home theater someday. (The Indy display was a little too big for our living room...at least according to my wife anyway. :lol) I was only able to find one photo of it on my computer. It's kind of dark, but at least you can get a sense of what it looked like. (Ahh, the memories. Back when my ''cryo-can'' was still full of shaving cream and only cost me $2 bucks...) Keep up the good work Brad. It's nice for guys like me to live vicariously through people like you, Alan and many others on this board. Kudos my friend! :thumbsup

What? Adam, Yours looked awesome! I love the whip on the shoulder idea. I would do that but my kids would want to play with it. :lol

Thanks again bro!

 

Looks great! (The coworker looking over my shoulder pronounced it "Tight!")

But...whose fedora? Whose jacket? (I think I can tell whose shirt, and guess the jacket...)

Or do we not discuss those kinds of details here?

 

Thanks!

Wested Lambskin Jacket
AKUBRA Federation 4 fedora with a Raiders Bash

 

*! That hat is PERFECT. If you have time, can you PM me about how I can get pretty much that exact hat? That's really the best one I've seen. WOW!:thumbsup

 

Nicely done, very cool way to display the hat. :thumbsup

 

PM sent

 

I was wrong on the shirt, right on the jacket, and stunned by the hat.

Fantastic bash! Still working to get my Fed IV in that kind of shape (and anxiously awaiting a Garrison Raiders this week).

 

Great display brad, clean and simple!

 

Looks great.. Nice and cleanly done..

 

Now that's a great display! I like the fact it has no head, it would only distract from the costume, :thumbsup.

 

Nice setup there Brad. I had nearly the same thing until I got a full dummy. Apart from a head lol

My torso had a stand though. I jest folded and pegged the shirt under the jacket. Looks classy like than. The fold over started to annoy me.

LOVE that bash.

Best
Taz

 

looks great! Congrats.

 

Brad, did you do the bash yourself? If so, you'll have to do mine, once I get back on my display.

And is the jacket the CKing cut? Love the way it fits and drapes. And weird - my own Wested is FAR more weathered, and weathered naturally I might add, but I like the cleaner look of yours better.

 

Hey Rob. I didnt do the bash on it. I bought it over at club obi wan. Not sure about the cut of the jacket. I just got it in a trade so I'll have to ask the member that I got it from. Thanks for the compliments.

 

Thats a very nice display. Love the hats bash and weathering. Any plans to add an Indy bust to that display?

 

That's what I call class Brad :cool

'nuff said :thumbsup

 

Nice dsplay Brad.

Who made the bag strap and buckle?

 

cool! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

 

No busts for me. I am not a fan of collecting busts.

I forget who made the bag. I will have to look inside it but the strap and buckle are Wade Egan.

 

:$
The jacket came from me. I did the weathering and the jacket came from another member. I'm pretty sure they got it on some kind of clearance as the size sewn in certainly does not match the actual size. It just so happens that the actual size was too big for me but was spot on to Brad, so it ended up in his collection.

 

Looks great.

Really love the hat!!

 

saweet! Nice job on this. I wonder if my lounge has room for an Indy display ;-) Might need to make room

 

Those are my kinda kids man! :thumbsup

 

That's actually a really neat way to display it!
Is that an Akubra hat??

 

hahaha I just showed my wife this Brad. She said "Why don't you see if you can just move in with Brad."


hahahaha I guess my Indy obsession is out of control?:lol

 

Yep. Fed 4

LOL! Come on over.

 

That is pretty funny. If you moved in with him, you'd have a killer prop collection surrounding you so that would be a major plus.
Of course, you have to put up with his gas and he will eat anything you put in the fridge:lol

 

Can I get that PM as well?

 

Brad - do me a solid and post more detailed pics of your Fed IV. I own the AB Henry but thought if I ever got another factory hat, It would be the Akubra Fed IV.

 

Will do
