Oh yea! I love the campfire scene when everyone farts in tune(Slim pickens was a riot). I saw this movie with my Dad when it first came out back in the 70's.
Angel, here is a shot of two of the fabrics for a future Cornelius suit. The one to the left is made out of cotton and is as heavy as the brown fabric that I have already sent you. It's got a mini check going on. The one to the right is 100% polyester, and it's very light in weight and color, a better grey but lacks the check pattern. Looking at both fabrics, I think the one to the right is more screen accurate just because of the color.

Here is another shot so you can see how it looks with a figure for sizing purposes. It's also the cheapie human figure I purchased...perhaps a future Armando or a future Brent. Don't know yet...probably Armando cause this figure's body has blue marks where some bad dye job bled on it or somebody took a ballpoint pen to it. See how the fabric to the right almost has a check pattern but not quite?

This is my husband's old blue shirt that I'm sure he wouldn't even miss, for Burke's blue shirt.
Jess - I'm currently dying clothing black on the stove... That blue shirt belonging to your husband looks great! Is it the scale correct? I like that!
Be right back, I have to stir the dye on the stove...

Hi Jess! Keep me in mind. I have been "Dyeing" (Get it), to have a Burke and Virdon set up. The sweater material looks correct, but as Angel has said, is it 1/6th scale pattern? Thankyou!

That figure looks like a Sideshow figure to me. I think that's Patrick "Something" from the X-files and from Terminator 2. That would be a great Armando body!
I like the checkered gray cloth. But you're right; the light gray may be more accurate. Decisions. Decisions. I wonder what would happen if dye remover was used to lighten the checkered pattern and then give it a quick dunk in gray dye perhaps to darken it? Then again, is it really worth it???

Jess - Now that look at it again. I'm liking the checkered gray...
Yes, Angel--that's the Terminator guy. I can't remember his name. I got him from that toy store you told us about for $9.99, so I snagged him just because he was a good deal and because he was listed under Sideshow figures. He's also got Barney Rubble feet. I hate that.
Didn't Armando wear a black turtleneck on Conquest?

Here is a picture of the blue fabric with a human for comparison. What do you guys think of the scale? I think it works well for the shirt.
That's a great looking shirt... if you have extra material (after making them for everyone) I also be interested in getting one.

No. Armando wore a dark brown turtleneck in Conquest and a Brown Corduroy Jacket with Khaki (or tan) pants.

Considering there's no collar on that shirt, Burke's blue shirt should probably be pretty easy you huh? As long as the sweater material doesn't unravel.

By the way, I'm going to try to modify an extra Armando at some point. I'm going to try and remove the goatee fromthe sculpt and fill in a few of the wrinkles in the CONQUEST Armando, in an effort to make him look younger for the ESCAPE Armando...
I'll let you all know how that goes. This is a future project if any f you are considering doing (or getting) ESCAPE Armando. Not sure if this will work or not...

The material is an overlock weave, and should not unravel. I actually have to tweak the edges where I want it to look ravelled. But check out this other material I found:
That material would work as well, but then you have to dye it blue... or is that for the vest???
