Gentlemen, allow me to be happy just for a while. I´ve been a member of the RPF for a very long time (mostly a lurker, but I post from time to time, when I have something important to say). Still, in all this time, I didn´t have the opportunity to say something I so often saw, and I would like to thank you guys for that. So here goes:

Hi Hermes,

Sent you an e-mail about a week ago, but I haven't received a reply.
Please can you confirm you've received it?

Thanks
Lance

The main things I had him alter for ANH was on the cape and robe ( thinner leather on the collar, no pleats, slit upside etc..) his leather suit is nice, and a good trooping suit..but it is a bit "puffy" for my tastes..I have been keeping mine scrunched up in a ball in my armor tub between troops and it is helping add the wrinkles and take out some of the puffyness..as said though, the ANH suit was actually 3 pc..

Actually I asked him if he can make a suit with less batting, and he told me no problem. I also requested a list of other changes as well like the cape collar and slit on the robe plus a few others were on it. I did pass on his cod though.

We'll see how it turns out.

Be sure to post pics! I wish I would've thought to ask for less batting...DOH! Atleast with ANH everything ( armor,box,belt,robe, etc) is so tight together you don't see a bunch of the suit..as for the cod...two words:

Hi Terell78!

If not too much of troubles I would like to know more exactly what alterations you asked LA to make.. I am going down the ANH DV myself and currently considering LA.. Thanks mate!

oh.. and I agree the AP Cod is fantastic - love mine - Had the cheap SA and the AP is a outstanding!!

I got a softparts package without a cod, but he sent a cod anyway. I asked for less padding in the suit, and it looks much better. It's not poofy like most of the suits he makes, but it's a little big in the belly area. I asked for a 1 1/8 inch collar on the cape which he did, I got the wool upgrade but the cape is 8 pannels instead of 6. Got the standard gloves that I had shortened locally which helps the overall look. Most of the modifications were on the robe, which had to be sent back. The replacement robe shipped yesterday after takeing 2 1/2 months for a robe redo.
