Looks great! I’m definitely interested in an XL!
kalsonprops, I watched a ton of stuff on this casting process and now I am back around to my normal cheap .... frugal self and now have questions. Did you improvise on the mold sand or did you purchase premade? If purchased, any recommended seller? He said, "oil sand", which could mean so many different things if I was recreating this at home. Any ideas to ingredients? I can make the mold halves and the crucible/furnace but any insight on home made mold sand would be awesome. I will keep searching online as well.
I swear I have lost my memory. Because I am just sick of relooking through all the pages, I am posting this here. I got my Buissonland designed early in the series blaster (before pirate version) here:

This is one of our crew of course with his build process in the main Skeleton Crew props chat. Because I am doing the jail break Jod and not jackwagon pirate Jod..... heheheh, I am using this one for my cosplay. This image above is buissons not the movie one. It prints this well and then just needs finish paint. Mine printed so cleanly that after removing my support trees the threaded flash suppressor smoothly threaded into the barrel.

Been lurking in this topic for a while as I'm trying to crash together a Captain Silvo look in time for Star Wars Celebration, and wanted to thank everyone for their great research, and hat tip to smithjohnj for the cuff pattern, which I modified for my sizing and it turned out great. I interfaced it but it was flopping about so I stitched it partially shut.
Also in my scouring of the episodes for coat references, I believe the Silvo coat has pocket flaps, no? I spotted them in episode 7. In some scenes I'm certain there are front and back princess seams and in other scenes there clearly aren't, but I am planning to include them just to have a place for the pockets and the back belt. Also I barely have enough coat fabric so making the front and back two piece will help me spread out the pattern better. Curious about others thoughts on seams and pockets, looking forward to sharing my progress here1

I love the partial closure on pinning the cuff. A great solution for a permanent pose ready look.

Same same! Let's do a Silvo meetup at SWC! I'll be there all 3 days (first day in Mando armour)
My current status:
I didn't notice that so far Need to review all the scenes, again.

Just my own observations on the coat. I do see the use of princess seams on the back. These are incorporated with the belt. On the front I did not see princess seams but I believe there are front darts (which I definitely do not need) to provide better tailoring. As you may know extending the darts into full princess seams (or vise versa) is a common technique so I think that will work well. With regard to pockets, the image you provided is the best evidence I have seen. However I do not see pocket flaps, but a welted pocket. There is another image of the open coat front which provides a good view of his pistol and the horizontal "button-hole" covers. In that photo I can "see" what might be the top edge of a pocket welt which crosses the front dart. (Also a common technique.) It is positioned between the top and middle button cover - about one-fourth of the way up.

jenf0arc, it took me about one minute to find an image of Jod's coat pocket proving you were correct. But again I believe welted not flapped. It did not take any time just because I started with the last episode and there it was in the recaps. I have attached the screen capture which shows it is actually quite large. However, I spent about two hours reviewing the old Jyn Erso thread where we last collaborated. As always I look forward to your progress.

Odd tangent here, sorry, but I want to invite a few folks to view this amazing thread because of their eye for detail on similar projects. We already have joberg but he gets a mention anyway and simiouno has also posted on this as well so my remaining are AJLoCascio , Cameron1138 , JohnHolliday . No pressure to comment, just thought you all would appreciate the level of reasearch even though the genre is not your primary and my apologies if I already sent a previous invite.

I haven't seen Skeleton Crew so I hadn't checked out this thread but I love this Star Wars-y take on a classic pirate look, with the fancy belt buckle and flintlock-style blaster and especially the shirt with billowy sleeves. Modery looking great so far! Hopefully I can still get around to my ANH Han I've been wanting to do for years once I finish a couple of the other things I have going on.
This Jod/Captain Silvo morphs mid series (not a spoiler so much as his clothes and blaster change a lot). He has TWO incredible coats in this period, one is highly militaristic and modern while the other is very reminiscent of Boromir's princely style from LOTR (even down to the cuff embroidery and clasps). So many aspects of this character reminded me of Cameron projects, blasters (yep, more than one) included. I am loving this thread, the talent and the research is so much fun to watch unfold.

Personal experience - dad belly helps
Plus, when you tighten the belts enough, the pants don't move
I think this is a scenario where the belts are more like old west gunslinger double belts and you have likely found another of the Hollywood fake clothing scenarios where everything is simply pinned and stitched into place to always present correctly. Pants are likely a hidden zipper
I love the fact that when you say "personal experience" it really does mean with this exact costume and double belts..... that is friggin funny and ironic that we have someone who can attest to the actual fit

I take a somewhat different approach. Put on the pants and belt and then eat lunch. I believe the effect is the same. Additive versus subtractive manufacturing. I had seen the pant's images several times but until I rewatched the episode I did not take note of the cinch belt on the back of Jod's pants just under the waistband. No one had mentioned it in the threads so I thought I should call it out for those who are looking for costume accuracy. The style works (best) when the waist is smaller than the hips and you are looking to "cinch-in" the extra fabric for a better fit. I seldom have "extra fabric".

The cinch-in could be done with concealed elastics, on each side of your hips, making the pants hold without the need of a belt.
This is the one I have seen for stage costumes. It allows larger varience for who may be filling the roll on stage. With the accessories pinned to the clothing and always presenting correctly.
In combination with the cinch section and/or belts (when available).
