JAWS: Quint from the ground up (Shoes, Pants, Shirt, Jacket, Hat)

[schoonerlabs]

Few pics from Quint costume at Halcon 2023 this past weekend.
Not 100% screen accurate but close enough for now. M1951 original jacket, replica hat, Sperry shoes (need to get them weathered up more), Wrangler shirt (as I try and track down an actual Lee vintage version), black washed jeans.

Shock and Awe. Very very nicely done. I am inspired to step up my game plan. I think you might have a genetic one up on me though on the facial hair. I will need to be gluing in some extra.

Good costume. As you said; more wear & tear on the shoes, but also on the overall costume (sleep a week in your jacket).

Thanks! Little bit more grey than I'd like but didn;t want to risk dye and screwing it up

Just finished my name tape but need to do some weathering and aging. 1 inch tall tape fabric, 5 inches wide. Name is 3.25 inches long. Here is my stencil print image, not a font, hand made in Adobe Illustrator:

And after printing, razor cutting and application, I got this (full walkthrough on my build page):

with comp of movie pic

I am getting very close to done. Hoping to be within a week.

Looking good, schoonerlabs — where did you source the hat?

greenmachines — quality work as usual, no surprise there my man!

OK, I am calling this my final pose. I have plenty of pics to play with but here is my side by side comp pictures. Thank you BossThreads for this thread, it made this build sooooo much easier.

I'll keep messing with the pictures I have and fill out my last few points on my steps to completion in my build thread but I am totally stoked with this fun pose at my little local store. Calling this build complete.
