Right I promised pictures but unfortunately for now..there is none, not until I upgrade anyway and this means i'm waiting on the postie ±_± but atleast it'll include the right SA pins.
I do have a question however that maybe one of you spiffing spiffatious gentlemen or gentlelasses could help me with? The hatters boot's..where can they be found? And is that pink ribbon around his hat a scarf? or a special cut?
By the way..I plan on growing and using my own hair dyed

Shoes are hit or miss mate. There is one area in this thread in which I asked people to post their sources. ACME is custom made, others found them in Surplus Stores, others on the Internet. The best choice are the ones that I posted pics of. I'll find it after this post.
The hat scarf is just a hat scarf. Aout 6 feet long and 8 inches wide. Some people sewed on the trim on the end while others cut the material and picked it apart to get the more SA look.
If you need pics just PM me mate!

mine are Justin lace up cowboy boots
and for the scarf the best to use is either satin or silk. they look best and fray the way they should

In that case, I'll leave the apron wearing to you! (After all, I suppose, a fedora is a type of HAT.)

LOL, I'm keeping that in mind.
Just gotta make sure I can use them, they aren't mine. :lol
What did you guys do to keep the thread from unraveling again? I thought about just a speck of glue on the back side, so there would be enough to be loose on the other side of each spool.
EDIT - Forgot to mention above, I realy like your new vest!

thanks, just got the other half, the lapel and the back to do -_-;
and glue works
i also used a knife to cut a slit in the edge of the spool so i could slip the thread in, like on a regular plastic spool
so if i needed to i could unravel some

Oh,you gus - all Rock!)
So,what I want to say..
I have unintentionally come on flickr.com to look something brand new and have found that..
FIDM have AIW fashion show!

All that I can tell, it that the Mad Hatter's main brown costume(without hat and wig - it's horrible!Because Hatter's costume without hat - it's not a Hatter) looks very poorly against other hero costumes. There is battle Hatter's costume too and again without hat and wig,which is not good(I think that they will return hats and wigs on their places)
Exhibition in SDCC and in Expo were much better, than that at present occurs in FIDM.

Ahh, good idea about the slit in the spools!
Selina, hadn't seen those before either! Thanks for sharing!
Also, after two hours of me and my mom using her sewing machine, and her "homemade" attachments we rigged up, I now have color. :lol
Ran out of a few colors, but I like them. Most, if not all of them are even vintage thread. The peices of blue painters tape are the numbers, to make them easy to arrange and store in bags.
