Deathstar Construction Supervisor / Jayne Cobb / Mal Reynolds


Will post pics this weekend of the Gotham SWAT. Winter Soldier is what happened to Captain America's partner Bucky- when the rocket blew up, they were both frozen in the ice at the end of WWII. Cap was found in the 60's by the Avengers, thawed out and took his place amongst heroes. Bucky was presumed dead.

What happened to him was the Russians found him, did not restore his memory, gave him a bionic left arm and sent him on covert assinations around the globe for years. Flash forward to this past year, and Viola! He's got his memory back...so on and so on. Wears black bdu pants, flak vest, pistol, rifle, long or moderate length hair (got wigs!) and Bucky style mask.

And, what's on your plate for DCon08?

Yeah I brought my BSG last year and did wear it on the Sunday... but felt sad every time I saw the Marines. So I might just wear m Marine.

I was going to do a Jack Harkness costume but didn't realize how gay he was... er, how expensive the coat was.

I want to bring my SST Mobile Infantry, but I don't have pants for it.

So sad for me.

I guess just Marine armor, and maybe a BSG off duty outfit. I'm a very lazy costume maker.

Though I may wear a Trenches Costume if the movie comes out before the convention.

It's not decided for sure but the tentavie plan is to bring:

Friday Day: Steam Punk Alice in Wonderland (new)
Friday Night:Either Dee Dee or Zatanna

Saturday Day: Super Secret Awesome-tastic Colonial Marines costume of Joy (new)
Saturday Night: Queen Gorgo Spartan

Sunday Day: Scarlett
Sunday Night: Masquerade group costume that I also have to keep a super secret (new)

* Please note these costumes, days and times are subject to change without notice.

I got my Marine gear of course and my Joe get-ups. My Spartan gear will get worn once, or thrice, to be sure as well. I try to keep it to two a day at most. Any more and I'm spending all my time changing and not chilling.

Is it worth the effort to bring a second set of armor?

What kind of armor?

TE Trooper armor, the R2 suit just wont fit anymore.

Colonial Marine is the only one I'll have for sure.

I'm working on a Warriors of the Wasteland one, although I haven't gone too far yet; and I have another project I shall not name for now, but I hit a snag when my designated tailor turned out to be a bit unreliable. Now I have to find someone else. Meh.


More that that, I don't think so - I do have to fit them all in a plane. Although I suppose I could bring the Harry Dresden bits for a quick extra one.

_________________

USCM Marine!! Excited about that one.

Some customized Sandtrooper variation just for the Con.

Hopefully something else new and original as a pair with my wife (we can't agree yet.)

Well lets see.

For sure USCM.

From there not too sure.

Could go with
Imperial Office

WW2 101 screaming eagle.

WW2 2nd SS Das Reich eastern or western front.

Fireflyish type jayne inspired something

If it where not Hot'lanta could do the scary
North Dakotan/Minnesotan Parka Man. LOL

About just adding a kilt to the SST gear?

The Scotsman/Irish contingent of the SST!

I'll most definitely be bringing whatever Colonial Marine gear I can scrape together by then and wearing that most of the time. The rest of the time I will be wearing my Commander Vill clone trooper armor. I think I might just have to do the unthinkable (as far as I am concerned, at least) and leave my biker scout armor at home this time around.

Vast array of CM gear and SST. Space permitting, I may bring a proton pack.

Now, I'm not baiting here or anything, just genuinely interested... but why on Earth would you dress as an SS infantryman at DragonCon?

_________________

No Clue why I would they are just the costumes I have here at the moment.

Though I have seen some photo's of the reenactment guys there. If I had afrika corp it would be easy to do a indy approach.

Most likely I will be limited to the USCM ( no option there )
and the Imperial officer, possibly the firefly stuff. Due to lack of room in the Honda civic after getting the wife and kids in. LOL
