Staying Safe and Positive ⭐️ ⠀ ⠀ With news

Staying Safe and Positive ⭐️ ⠀
⠀
With news and updates changing day to day, and even hour to hour, it’s important to stay safe and be kind. It’s also important, as we progress to increasing levels of self isolation, to hold onto the positive things than can help with anxiety. Our hobbies can be a haven as we stay at home and change the way we fill our time. ⠀
⠀
As Star Wars fans, our family is focusing on activities that we can do at home. As well as continuing to enjoy our favourite Star Wars video games and books, we also plan to take the time to feature some of our treasured collectibles and memories on our blog. ⠀

May The Force Be With You ⭐️

Black Series 6” IG-88 ⠀
⠀
A recent birthday gift, and a very welcome addition to my IG-88 focus collection. ⠀
⠀
This particular figure is from the Hasbro bubble-carded Archive line, and it has great articulation and level of detail. ⠀
⠀
With the level of exposure that IG-11 has given to this series of droids in The Mandalorian, my appreciation for the original bounty hunter has increased even more ⭐️

Battlefront Darktrooper ⭐️ ⠀
⠀
We love the original Star Wars Battlefront games - and still enjoy playing instant action games on the weekends. ⠀
⠀
Darktroopers were one of my favourite classes to play, and they look cool too. ⠀
⠀
It is so much fun to wear unique armour from a video game we love so much. ⠀
⠀
What’s your favourite class to play in Star Wars Battlefront? ⭐️

⠀
As I’m sure most costumers can relate, I have a few costume projects that have been put aside for one reason or another, waiting to be finished someday. ⠀
⠀
This Riddick costume is an odd one out from my stash, in that I’m pretty certain I’ll never finish it. ⠀
⠀
I got this far before I ran out of time for DragonCon 2009 - made the shirt, arm guards and shoulder harness, and finished it off with store-bought boots, pants and belt. ⠀
⠀
The reason this will never get finished? We now own a real Vin Diesel screen used Riddick costume! Doesn’t seem much point to keep sewing the rest of this version, when it could never compare to the real one we have ⭐️

⠀
The beginning of our love of costumes - Matt’s first costume, Star Wars stormtrooper armour. ⠀
⠀
He bought it from the US in 2001, and joined the @official501st that same year. ⠀
⠀
A few years later, I made my first costume, a Jedi Knight. We soon found each other through our shared love of Star Wars, collecting, and costuming. ⠀
⠀
Passions we still share to this day, after 12 years of marriage and still going strong ❤️

⠀
The ‘spookiest’ costumes we own - screen used Necromonger captain and convert costumes from The Chronicles Of Riddick. ⠀
⠀
We bought these from @prop_store back in 2005, our first ‘couple cosplay’ - it was so exciting to own costumes from the first film we ever saw together. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
I’ve worn my Necromonger convert costume several times, at different conventions around the world - but Matt’s captain costume won’t fit in a suitcase, so we wear them together at local conventions 🖤

⠀
In 2006 Matt and I traveled across the world to visit the Star Wars AOTC filming location in Italy. ⠀
⠀
Two weeks before the trip I had the crazy idea to make Padme’s lake dress, with my very basic sewing skills. ⠀
⠀
No pattern, drafted the dress with bedsheets wrapped around me, and used fabric paint... but I think it worked out okay. ⠀
⠀
The best part - Matt surprised me by proposing in the spot Anakin and Padme’ were married 💕

⠀
I made our Harley Quinn and Joker costumes for @armageddonexponz Auckland 2007, as HQ co-creator Bruce Timm was a guest. ⠀
⠀
A good friend wore his Batman costume that year as well, so we got some fun group photos. ⠀
⠀
Matt’s costume was inspired by the animated series, with the Joker voiced by Mark Hamill - this was a year before ‘The Dark Knight’ film was released, so Joker costumes weren’t as common back then 🃏
