Seen tonns of helmet threads and such, but none on his street clothes...So thought I'd have a go at recreating his leather jacket. Sorry for not going full-bore proper with a shave and hair slicked...needed the do for a con coming up.

Nice work!! Have you managed to indentify his sunglasses yet? I thought they were Ray-Ban Wayfarers but they are quite different

 

[THEMAN]

Thanks Cody! Nope, not yet, but I guess I'll have to get on that...they are nice looking shades.

they look like Ray-Ban JFK Clubmaster Sunglasses

Nope, those aren't them... similar style, but bridge and arms are quite a bit different.

yeah i noticed the ray-bans are a stripped down wire design, how about these...

Amazon.com: Malcolm X Original Sunglasses: Clothing

its a tuff one, could they be a modified/custom pair made just for the film?

 

[THEMAN]

Yep, did see those and they are much closer...hey and for that kind of $$ they sure are close enough, cause I guaranty the real deals are gonna be pricey.

yeah for the price they are close enough to take a chance on a few pairs, id grind down the lower edge on the legs so they are a closer match to the originals, little sand/wet sand and the plastic will be nice again.
