Also Indy - I am still interested in getting those Joker gloves!

I can't say I'm allowed to post his info, but I'll drop him a line when he replies to my last PM. He may even be a member here, and by may, I meen most proboly. :lol

Most of the images have been posted in one way or another, but to see them all there at once is a wonderful thing. :cool
EDIT -
If you haven't looked at RIT's site for colors, you should deffintly check it out :
http://www.ritdye.com/Rit+Products+Available.5.lasso
For the powder color, eveneing blue, or royal blue are your choices. However, I'm preety sure Wal-Marts stock Royal Blue. Or they stock that blue localy for me anyway. RIT's site also has a Techniques page you might check out as well.

(I think it matters how much color you'd like to add to the shirt as far as techniques go though.

Indy,
would it be possible to get some sample swatches of your Joker fabric to test out in dye baths?

Sure, anyone who has ordered one of these shirts and would like a test swatch, shoot me an e-mail...
Kind regards,

Received my Darth Mule Joker pants yesterday and they look beautiful! Quality is nice and the stripes look perfect. Took some quick pictures out in the sun so you guys can see the color on this. I'm working on a Joker mannequin and once that's finished, I'll be taking more pictures.
Close up of the pants: Front and back
These pants really helped complete the whole Joker image for me.
Thanks Darth Mule! I think these are the most accurate pants out there.

What about the buttons on the sleeves? Are they accurate on the coat from Baron?

Those are the purple pinstriped linen I found. Still no good resource for the wool, but this has the right look I think.

Just saw this in the Junkyard in Indy's thread for Joker Clothes. Though it might be good to post here just in case it wasn't yet.
Close alternative eh?
Also.. Reviewed, and renewed my junkyard thread for custom pants http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?p=761595#post761595

the above mentioned suspenders are awesome. they are a little bit darker than the picture but the pattern is exact. better than hand painting an all white pair.

Are we sure these arent the correct suspenders? I know they look dark, but the description says green diamond pattern... taking another look at this image (below), they may very well be. The background color could very well be black, and the bright green we are seeing could be a lighting effect. Has anyone seen the suspenders for sale in person yet?

The braces in post #392 are made by Albert Thurston. When these braces were first discovered, then only available in black on black or white on white, I contacted Albert Thurston directly regarding these particular braces. I was informed that they did not supply any braces for production. However, they released the green on black braces shortly after.
Here are some pictures that someone posted of these braces on TDH.
I do not believe that these are the exact braces, as the AT's white braces give off more of a silvery shine when not in direct light. Although they are not available with green diamonds.

yeah - I just watched the actual scene, and at a different angle, they are clearly white with green diamonds... hmmm...
so if you were to get an all-white pair, what would be the best method to make the diamond parts green?

Ya, using any kind of fabric paint would work, as Bleyd said. If you go to Hobby Lobby,etc. you can find a realy good match in fabric paint markers. I've been holding out on suspenders myself...I can't decide what to do.
Also, here's the mask I'm purchasing. I can't say who the user is, and I'm not allowed to say how to get ahold of him. I can tell you that the mask I'm getting is the last pull he has. :
