  1. Here are some of the pattern (will try to add more soon) and picture of the build for Line/Staff/Krennic Poncho

    Take note that

    1) Krennic's Cape is much longer then the Line/Staff officer's cape

    2) Krennic front have a pocket. But the Line/Staff officer do not have.

    The patterning is pretty easy it is just the sewing the detail of the line can be hard. So do change the needle on the sew machine if you are planing to do it yourself. Using the normal needle can sometime cost the sting to jump a few sticting. Do be careful when sewing waterproof fabric as once you poke a hole, the hole stays. 

    Needle: Microtex

    The cape is more of a rectangle shape. So cut two of this. And if you have a mannequin, it will be better. so you can pin the cape to the top part nicely.

    It will be better to pin and see where you want the below part to be.

    This is my test mock up on krennic's pocket. I think it is called a Welt Pocket.
    Here are some of the links on how to do it

    If you really want to be more waterproof (not for heavy rain), you can try to spray waterproof spray onto the costume (or for your daily wear too!). But every how and then you have to spray it. Because the waterproof spray do not stay onto the outfit very long. It is really usefull for hats! I did use some of the waterproof spray when I go oversea on my hat or my jacket when there is light rain like England.....

    It looks something like this.

    Rem to do the pockets for the codes to be put in. 

     

    I did try gray color on the early stage. It did not work out as what the design was when I was watching the movie again.

    Just to show you how it looks like if it was gray color (The top). Base on the research that me and some of the people from IOC.

    For the Top Mint color fabric:
    I got from this store
    Spotlight - Premium Cotton Sateen Fern

    you can kind of see the different with both of the color.
     

    The question on how I wear the top part, I did a collar on kind so I can fit inside. In the early stage, I did try to sew all up in one go, but my head just can not fit inside the collar . so I did like this.

    This is how it looks like over all. After I redo and show the right olive color.

    That really looks great. Congratulations on that progress.

     

    As far as Ellen an I could see it in the pictures, the inner part ot the collar seems to be lined with a different fabric than the rest. It appears to be a little matte. So maybe they used something with wool or valvet for this.

     

    Concerning the fabric for the outer coat: I ordered a coat from ebay some time ago. It was stinking to the death and did not match the pattern of the movie-coat by far. I am afraid it was a similar one as shown in the links above. So keep your hands of that stuff =D

    The main material appears to be closer to the fabic of the raincape, even though it might be a little stiffer or thicker.



    The pattern for it, you can base off on some female fashion may know at least. 

    Fabric have to be a waterproof fabric. But the collar to be valvet will be weird, As Valet and waterproof will give a very big differents in texture.. If you do see the Olive coat that the officer wear, it really do not look like it is valvet. 

    And given the fact that this costume is a background outfit to show there are officers (that have a live beside the ship or the ball), The studio will not/ may not give a high budget for it. 

  4. May be it is like those female fashion WHERE BUTTONS ARE NEVER THERE.....or there is a really small hook kind that can not see from this clips or a magget on the coat which I did see before.


    The fabric look kind the waterproof fabric I saw at the store early on For the black one. 

    But one thing good about the coat it can be abit bigger size then the user. 

    the closest pattern I found online that is this. just have to edit here and there. and boom the coat.

  5. I found a color of the fabric when I was checking one of the stores from online so desided to pop over to have a look. The uncle told me that the fabric is Gabardine wool and wrinkle free. The fabric look more like this color, the green gray kind on the below part. The top I use some water to wet it to see what color it turn into XD.

    True, in the way that some told me that the green I had was kind of too greenly (kind of error that I see it base on the movie first before the book LOL). 

    So tested the fabric out after getting the fabric. (somehow my camera

    But along the way I am ordering some other fabric online to check on the color.

  6. Buy white wefts and sew it onto the black wig. It will be nicer if you can find a weft give a real feel (you will understand when you see the below photo)

    Even do this is some of my other outfit. For you, to get an idea.
    The wefts is sew under the brown wig. This weft is Off-white.

    As this one the wefts are clipped on top of the black hair (at that point I was used to have long hair) I do not really like this idea as the clip can be seen and it can get messily really fast.
    254415.JPG.1e7871e1dbf383721835024c738994a3.JPG

    This one the weft is somewhat sew in between the front of the wig (may be around 2 rows from the front. In someways, this may look kind of "real"
    DSC_9925small.thumb.jpg.259b2ce35b4e2e62e375b42f97262234.jpg

    Just do not use this kind of cheap wefts from the costume store kind and clip it like this. It give that kind of Fake gloss thing (this was donkey years ago photo.)

    the store just calls it green...

    Its curtain fabric , so the structure is a bit rough.

     

    For pantone or RAL , I'd say :

    https://www.ralkleuren.com/ral-6034-pastelturquoise

    http://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/color/379479_Pantone-PMS-331-C

     

    so ...pastelturquoise ral 6034

    pantone pms 331

     

    But the structure of the cloth also matters , i tried to copy this colour with my airbrush , and found I had to mix quite a bit of bluish grey in the mix .

     

     

     

    Some of the store I saw call it Fern colour. But it is kind old weird to name that. But if you want the fabric colour I use you can message me
