[gregday]

Albert Thurston still sells them: Albert Thurston Traditional English Braces for Gentlemen

But the originals were not black and green, but silver and green.

I believe Magnoli Clothiers sells accurate suspenders.

he doesnt sell them anymore, but he said if there was enough interest hell make another run

 

[Indy Magnoli]

We're actually looking at doing another run now.

Hi all,

I need to change my trench coat for a better quality wool one. I've been reading up about Hello cosplays one and it seems pretty much accepted as the best one at a cheaper price point. I have seen they do a wool one and also a wool/ethylene. I'd assume I'd only need the wool one which seems to be the one is need.

Also, are their TDK Joker vests the right dark/olive green colour?
Thanks

Lee

Budget airsoft glock. Airsoft glock £15 IIRC. Bit of paint removed, which was on the sliding top part. Was bare metal underneath so perfect. Found a bit of pipe for the silencer and done.

Onto the shotgun next

Nearly there on my Joker now. Decided to get a new wool coat and vest. Need to distress the coat a little. Built a new base for him which is meant to represent him standing on a pavement. Decided to change the head for a better quality one and it looks amazing. He has the knife, cards, and boot blade to go with the other items on the stand - few bundles of fake cash, batarrangs etc.

Why is it when you think you are done, something else eats away at you. I need to change the trousers!

So was the final decision purple pinstripe trousers??

Is anyone still here? We shouldn't let this die. This forum is a decade old and we have new info for the older members and new. It's amazing what we've got here

Yep, this is a great thread and helped ne with my joker.

Its helped me out with a few things as well. But over all it was a great read and I'm so happy to see peoples progress. Are you still currently working on your joker project(s)?

The problem with the T&A tie is to get it to look screen accurate, you need to do a lot of weathering... and no one so far has had the guts to do that to a nearly $200 tie.

Don't let this thread die!!

Possibly found already, but I did a search in this thread and didn't see them listed. I found these shoes, and of course they're sold out. But they exist!

Update?

(forgive me in advance for my vagueness!) Someone in one of the Joker shirt pattern threads recently said they got confirmation from a costume designer that they discovered the hexagon pattern as a vintage 70s button-up in a thrift store, and they had the pattern re-printed for production. So theoretically it's possible to find an original somewhere...

I wonder if that little piece or debris inspired the choice
