Just thought I should introduce myself to the court, as you'll hopefully be seeing more of me in the near future!

Pera is my name, from New Zealand. I've been into the costuming hobby for about seven years now, mostly Star Wars stuff, with a few other projects here and there. I've been wanting to do a Jack Sparrow costume for years, and as I'm feeling the itch to start a new project, I've decided it's about time I gave it a go. Better late than never, right?

I also happen to be good friends with Jodo, whose Captain Jack was a huge inspiration to make a start on mine! Jodo, apologies in advance for all the stupid questions I'll be asking, you'll be sick of hearing from me by the time I finish I promise!

Cheers guys! Very Happy

Welcome aboard mate! Yes, costuming can surely be a highly addicting hobby, especially a character with as many dimensions as dear old Jack.

And there are no stupid questions...okay, there actually are stupid questions, but still, we were all there once and this is truly the place to get those answers!

A good bunch of folks. A good bunch of pirates...

A blanket and couch cushion walls fort. Much more bettah. Razz

But yea, tons better than a single all inclusive sub-forum of a larger site. I like having multiple sub-forums. Cutlass

Mojo Turbo Thu Feb 02, 2012 1:39 pm

I can't take credit for the subforums - that was one of ya'alls cool ideas

capt.J.j.sparrow Sat Feb 25, 2012 11:25 pm

Ahoy there mate! Welcome aboard! Don't limit yourself to just Jacks from the UK (they will have the advantage of getting local swag for you) there be a worldwide community of us! Were did you order your gear from?

imperialbooner Sun Feb 26, 2012 1:27 am

It's all from costume base. Is that a good or a bad thing??? Not to worried if I have to buy more to replace it but it was a start any pointers would be grateful

Not bad if properly modded. Although Costumebase is based out of Singapore not the US.

imperialbooner Sun Feb 26, 2012 1:31 pm

I realise that now just looked at the envelope what mods are there to do and can I have pointers on what to do and ideas on the rest ie waistcoat boots belts sword wig and flintlock thank you

Mojo Turbo Sun Feb 26, 2012 5:48 pm

almost all my mods were costume base, I still own the shirt, vest and pants and still wear em with my gear
