Limited Run FINN/POE Lambskin Leather Jacket

Re: FINN/POE Custom Fit Leather Jacket. Pic Heavy. $250. Run closes Oct.10

Hey everybody, it looks like Shapeways is having a 25% off sale, so today would be a great day to pick up the buckles, especially if you want to shoot for metal. I started cleaning up my own personal prints of them and took some pictures. This should give you an idea of what they'll look like with a little primer.

Your leather is looking awesome @Risu :thumbsup

did you darken areas of the jacket or is that just lighting?

My jacket was a special request, Zlurpo had them make it from cowhide. They darkened it the same way they did the lambskin as far as I know.

Yes, yesterday I emailed to ask when they'd be done and he said Nov. 25th. That's later than he originally said it would be, but there's nothing I can do about that now. But I would say the new run should start shipping by the beginning of December..

Updates?

Half of them have arrived, the others are on their way. I'll be starting to ship hopefully tomorrow, but on the very beginning of next week if not.

Ok, most of the orders have now shipped. I have emailed everyone with the contact email they put on the form. If you didn't get an email, it means your jacket is in the second order that is still coming (tracking says it will arrive Monday) and I'll get them mailed out by Tuesday at the latest!

Any pictures of the latest jacket?

It'll have to wait until I have someone here to take pics with better lighting/camera. Nowhere in my house is good for selfies. However, they look almost exactly like this photoshopped version of what I wanted the new run to look like.



They don't come weathered or with greeblies, so the straps are still newer looking than that (unless you got the weathering added).

My shipping has my jacket set to arrive on Wednesday, so I'll take some photos when it arrives. (Or possibly the next day if it's too dark by the time it arrives.)

I got my geeblies from shape ways last week. I need to paint them up so they will be ready when the jacket gets here.

My parts arrived last week. I am going to work on the parts today if plans holdout. I thought you might like to see how they look.

Nicely done! Care to share any paint tips?

Sure, nothing too special.

• Wet sanded and cleaned
• 2x layers of rattle can aluminum
• 1x dusting of aged bronze rattle can
• Hit the edges with wet sandpaper in various spots just enough to hit the silver paint
• Brushed on brown acrylic craft paint, then quickly wiped off
• Brushed on silver acrylic craft paint on edges and various surface areas, then quickly wiped off
• Brushed on cream acrylic mixed with a touch of water craft paint in the recessed areas, then quickly wiped off

Alrighty, guys. Mine just showed up not too long ago and I'll be taking pictures shortly. First impressions are overall good. The leather is very soft, has a fair bit of stretch to it. The detailing is nice, stitching is well done and seems accurate to my eye. I don't know if it's Rebel Legion acceptable, (I haven't checked yet) but I'm pretty sure it will be fine.

I did post a photo of mine there at one point, but it was only within another thread someone else had made. I really couldn't figure out what the process was to get it "approved" or however that works, so I didn't spend much time on it. But if it happens, let me know! I am pretty sure the weathering and greeblies are required for the approval.

Wow, this thing fits me like a glove. It's snug, but there's enough range of motion for me to do just about anything. Out of curiosity, what should be done about the waist straps?

Well, I managed to snap one good photo for all of you good folks. This is outdoors in pretty decent lighting.

I threw on the rest of the outfit that I have, for context. As you can see, the jacket is a pretty good color, if a bit on the pinkish tan side. Overall, it looks at home with the rest of the costume. The straps stand out a bit, but with a little work I'm sure you can get the straps to match the leather, or vice versa.

They just hang down. It's weird I know, but that's what they do in the movie, so there they are.

Got my jacket. I LOVE IT!

I'm glad I opted for the weathering service... nicely done.

I'm about to leave with the family to see Rogue One and I am wearing it.
