And to split hairs a bit Action Man has got his belt on upside down as well. Dark Blue to the top. Need to stick him on a fizzer.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Oh I see what you mean now, he is heavily accessorised !!!

It would be a big job I think, but just crazy enough to work ?

I may do some experimenting over the next week or so, see if I can come up with a quick and simple solution. if not then at least I have a back up plan ! Cheers !

ok i have another idea the coat i used for my black major custom here-

http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/phpBB2/ ... =11&t=2903

comes in 2 halves and is very rubbery and easy to manipulate. you would need to fashion something to make it hold its shape but that should be easy enough. have 1 coat left in custom box.
lemme know

That may be easier than the other one ? I was contemplating making a cloth one so I could form the lapels etc but I dont think my seamstress skills are up to it !

I have too many ideas in my head now and not enough time !

Thanks for the help Bill, I will let you know when I decide whats for the best !

There may be too much work involved with that guy, I will save that thought as a last resort.

How about a Bib Fortuna coat:

Use fabric paint to turn it black. The black-caped custom French prototype Squidhead is the regular cape with black fabric paint.

If the Bib Fortuna coat doesn't work, then maybe Han Endor's coat?
