Time Agent Costume [Torchwood/Doctor Who]

[meimei]

So I'm already working on costume ideas for the 2011 FanExpo and as I just got a vortex manipulator, I was seriously considering going as a Time Agent.

The only issue is I have no idea, short of Jack and John Hart what Time Agents wear. I'm relatively new to the world of Who so could someone who has more in-depth knowledge maybe give me some ideas?

I know there's always crossplaying as a female Jack or John but I think going as one of the unnamed Time Agents mentioned in both series could be more fun.

Well we've seen two, Jack and John.

Based on that sample, pretty much anything goes, as long as it's pompous, out-of-place, and at least slightly ridiculous.

I knew that they were the only (visual) representations of Time Agents in the Whoniverse but wasn't sure if there was some kind of staple for Time Agent costumes, like how Firefly has so many similarities between the different character groupings

Thanks for the pics though

There is no "cannon" look for a time agent. They were discussed in the series, but only Jack was ever seen. In Torchwood a second time agent was shown . Both Jack and John seemed to be wearing costumes relevant to the time period they last visited. ( ?? )

I guess the vortex manipulator is the only cmmon feature, I doubt anyone at a con would realise what you were dressed as just by noticing your wrist wear .

To be an identifiable time agent I guess you have only two choices...jack or John.

Both Jack and John have a military influence to their costumes as well. I've been planning to do something a little closer to John's outfit, with that historic military slant, and a touch of modern casualness....and also tall boots
