My tenth Doctor costume

[Risu]

A couple days ago I got my Tennant overcoat from Steve Ricks and I felt compelled to go out and take some pictures. Sorry if they're a little large, if it's a big deal I'll make them smaller.

Very very cool! I've only recently gotten introduced to Dr. Who, but David Tennant's Doctor is by far my favorite of the ones I've seen, and you did a great job with the costume. Kudos!

Awesome!!
And is that the delux version of the coat? It looks amazing.

 

[Vlair]

Ya look great, so much better than the licensed version of that coat! well done!

 

[Risu]

Yea, it's the deluxe. I was really hoping I'd get a good shot of the liner material, but the only one where the wind caught it just right I was making a ridiculous face. Once my Fireplace tie comes in hopefully next month I'll be going to the Getty museum in LA and doing another shoot.

The funny thing about this coat is that when I pick it up it's heavier than my old one that I made myself, but it feels much lighter when I wear it. I live in SoCal and it was pretty warm when I took these pictures, but it wasn't uncomfortable to wear the whole costume.

Looks great Risu! What's the difference between the deluxe and standard coats?

Great looking costume mate.....top marks!!! And great pics too!

Looks great Risu! What's the difference between the deluxe and standard coats?

I think the only difference is the liner material, but I can't remember for sure. The standard has plain blue satin and the deluxe has striped. It's one of my favorite things about the coat actually.

I think the only difference is the liner material, but I can't remember for sure. The standard has plain blue satin and the deluxe has striped. It's one of my favorite things about the coat actually.

I offer coats in a choice of two colours, both at the same price.

The deluxe version uses a very close to screen accurate self-striped lining, plus I use a much better match for the buttons.

Both the lining and the button have to be specially imported (the lining from LA and the buttons from across Europe) so it has to add a bit to the price.

For anybody interested, H&M currently have the correct t-shirts worn as the base layer of Tennant's Tooth and Claw outfit for sale again. They're $10. From past experience I wouldn't expect them to be around for long. Unfortunately they don't have them in blue, only grey, so no Midnight version.

Which ones are they? Would you mind providing a link... I can't find any clear screencaps..

 

[Risu]

I don't have a link handy, for reference on that shirt I pretty much went off of what I could see while watching the episode and what the tag said in the Bonham's auction. And unfortunately H&M doesn't have an online store. (stupidest business move of the decade?) Just look for a big rack of plain t-shirts for $9.95, the tag says H&M and the shirt has "Fine Cotton Stretch" silk screened onto the inside of the nape.

Or is this a different H&M?

 

[Risu]

Same H&M, but I can't find a store anywhere on that page.

 

[Dave Ward]

Really? Is this a close-enough or the real deal? Would you mind posting a picture?

 

[Tom Starkiller]

Thanks for the info.
And uhm, is that Gallifreyan text on the fourth picture? Where did you get it?

 

[Risu]

They're the real deal. I'll try to take some pictures later tonight after class.

Not Gallifreyan text, it's the stuff from the Satan Pit episodes. It's been posted in a few places online from the concept art, I just tweaked it to make it look like it was on a vid screen.

Same H&M, but I can't find a store anywhere on that page.

We have an online store for the UK.

 

[Risu]

Well that just sucks for us.

 

[E-Wan]

Which LA-area H&M did you find them in?
