Soulinertia, that printed fabric is looking great on those!

For the curious/interested, I purchased this bag from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015WG33H8 and thought I'd drop a few pictures for comparison.

Me, or Soulinertia?How can I order one from you?
A shot wearing the bag, kinda copying the movie pose:

Also shows off the boots I made for my roommate (the jacket and boots are his, I don't really have a Star-Lord costume.
Which metal rings, the ones on the bag that the narrow straps run through? Search 'oval grommets' on etsy or eBay, I think the 1.25" ones.
Or do you mean the rings on the boots? Those are either circular snaps, or just rings with spikes in them I think. I don't quite remember...
No, they're rings, they're just a small ring with prongs on the back of them. Push the prongs through the leather (I think I used an xacto knife to cut tiny slits for the prongs because they wouldn't pierce leather). They aren't actually holding the small straps on though, they are just there decoratively and the straps are actually held on with Shoe Goo.The boots. Specifically the things that are keeping the straps attached to the body through the slits, and keeping the foot cover attached to the shoe.
Is it just a trick of the light that they look like rings?

Soulinertia has kits and supplies, I have completed bags. Not sure which of us you mean.Hey! Are you still doing a run or have extra material to make another bag? I stumbled on this thread today and thought that was the most perfect replica I've seen yet! I'd love to buy one of those puppies.
