Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Ok..Here we go with this one...I like how it turned out color wise, the only thing I personally would like to change is the pompom on top. I am going to use the orange and red color instead of the yellow and orange.....
but what does everyone think......?

I also have the blue sun cutoff tee to show as well...I made a sleeve version as well, just in case anyone wants that for their own custom touch....

Opinions anyone.....? ? ?
Those who have placed a preorder for the hat and shirt so far, let me know if they look good to you so I can wrap your complete orders up...

If anyone else likes them, I can get them made up and on their way. They are available at the website....

thanks again everyone....

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Wow Chad, the hat turned out really good! My only comment would be on the thickness of the material - it looks pretty thick for something 1/6 scale, but I don't know if there is anything you can do about that.

The shirt is fantastic. LOVE the logo!

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Thanks Trevor....Reinhardt,

Here is the biggest issue I had with the hat so far...finding the closest yarn colors in the smaller gauge yarns. The red was the toughest because it isn't really a Primary red but more duller Red.
I actually used a sock yarn which is still workable but yes the give and take is the overall scale in the end.
This hat is actually knitted rather than crocheted. If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know.


OH...to all of those who have open orders for some Firefly clothing items, I am trying like heck to wrap them up for you. Check your inbox this weekend for some updates on those items .......

Finally...I am going out once again this weekend to see if I can find more Zoe Vest fabric. WISH ME LUCK

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

I hear you on the hat Chad. I'm sure it is almost impossible to find fabric that is that small.

As for the Zoe vest, what kind of material did you use the last time? Maybe we can help you find it???

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Chad, my niece is making one for me and using embroidery thread.

 

[Old Grandpa]

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Chad, the material you used for the hat is a little to thick. Have you looked into using corchet thread? Just a thought.

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Chad that looks good. Can you do this kind of shirt?

 

[sithlordmacgyver]

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

I do have a sleeved version available as well for those who may want one....You can just order it from the site. I will make it an option for everyone.

Thanks again,

bumping this awesome thread up!

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Hey Chad, haven't heard from you in a while, so I assume that the Jayne hats are still in the prototype stage. Still very interested in getting one. Keep us informed. Are you planning anything new for the next three sculpts?

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

OG you must have been spying on me...

Many of those who have ordered your Jayne Blue Sun Shirt and Cunning Hat should see a confirmation of shipping in your inbox from paypal. I finally have all the hats ready and set to ship. The first batch are going out tomorrow and the remainder should ship out on Tuesday.
Several of you have also ordered some odds and ends items for your custom Firefly characters...those finally are set to go out towards mid week. Those who ordered those items should see a paypal invoice and email come thru midweek.
Thank you everyone for keeping me extremely busy with all of these items. As of right now, I dont have any new items slated to be made but if I were to spill any beans on what may be coming soon....
Zoe Duster Coat...? anyone?
I have had a few more of you request another batch of Mal Coats...as soon as I get these items shipped and my table clear, I will let everyone know if I can do it.

Are there any other items you would like to see made for your Mal, Jayne or Zoe?

Any new items that I do make won't be available until around Mid May just to keep everyone in the loop.

Thank you again and please let me know when everyone starts getting their Jayne items.

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

How about some tight pants for Zoe? Also, I would like to order the Zoe vest if you find the right material.

Another item I'd like is Jayne's coat from the pilot episode.

 

[boba flint]

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

Some accurate paints for Jayne would be great.

Re: Mal Reynolds Coat and Zoe Vest-SMcG

check store-rooms.com for the Tan CIA pants, those should work well.
