"Finally, I think I've found the costume I want. Now I just need someone to manufacture this gem. Two important things for me are keeping my
secret identity and having a modicum of modesty.
"Some features of this costume design:
- "The entire thing will be made of a cotton / lycra blend for comfort and fit.
- "The yellow parts will be stiffened with nylon. Well except for the 'medals' which are fake and just there to look cool and confuse people about my identity.
- "It's a one piece jumpsuit with zipper closure concealed by Velcro sealing flap.
- "The neck, knees and elbows will be reinforced with shock gel. It has to be discrete though.
- "The face is a full head hood with nylon wig attached. The hood attaches to the neck of the jumpsuit. It has transparent shatterproof plastic eye-pieces. This will conceal my
identity.
- "The knuckles will be reinforced with lead or plastic for striking power and to protect my hands.
- "The boots will be electrically insulated. I'm not sure if I'll use a wire mesh in the costume to ground out, or rubber soles, or both.
- "I'll probably add a pouch belt as I wrote in my other costume notes.
"I adapted this costume from the image of Admiral Daala in the Star Wars: The Essential Guide to Characters." |
