thanks! i couldn't find LeeS's patches on a junkyard search, so i thought they may no longer be available. and i noticed the tag after taking the photos.

Yeah I looked for the sale thread in the JY but it's gone.
Might want to contact him direct to see if he has anything left.

I put the pin-up and defence patches on my parka for when I have to spend a few hours in the freezer at work.
Still need to paint the PPDC bird on my backpack.

You should check propstore site for their Pacific Rim auction catalog.

are there any pics of their flight suits any where?

Gonna have the bomber jacket made when I get over to korea. But in the mean time I've been practicing the painting...

 

[Fett 4 Real]

Know the threads kinda dead but still practicing the pin up. Going to have the jacket made when I get to korea. They do custom work at reasonable prices.

So it's Halloween, and this was my choice of costume this year along with one of my friends who was Mako with a Gipsy Danger jacket. I just wanted to thank everyone in this thread for all the help. Almost all of the information I needed to make the outfit, I got from this thread. So thanks.

Although ralieghs jacket didn't have that badge. It was a patch.

I decided to put the badge on the jacket rather than a name patch. Personal preference. I saw the badges on etsy, but I wanted my name on the badge and I didn't want to wait 3-4 weeks to get it. I found the design online, cleaned it up, put my name in there, printed it on photo paper, cut it out, glued it to a piece of foam poster board that I had cut to shape, and super-glued a piece of metal to the back so I could hold it on with a magnet. I have a second one on the flight suit that has a pin clasp super-glued to it.

The badge does go on the flight suit mind you.

I'm looking into having a replica Gipsy Danger jacket made and have started looking into reference material... some of these have been posted before, but i thought it would be worth posting what i have in the hopes that it's useful to someone else as well...



I'm hoping to have the jacket made within the next few months ( money permitting )... i'm also wanting to have the artwork air brushed onto the jacket as i feel that would give it the most screen accurate look and feel, so i'm going to be looking into air brush artists and see if i'm able to find someone to do the artwork for me... if anyone's interested i'll post some pictures of the jacket once it's completed...

I don't think airbrushing would be the best looking as it looks hand painted on. I hand painted a leather with the nose art came out pretty good.
