IRIS: Raiders of the lost Ark (Closed)

[cpoll36]

Scrunch up the sleeves to the elbows and let it sit that way overnight. Or get the material wet to make them set even more.

Thanks! It looks great.

The latest photo looks the best in terms of the pockets position.

Here is a pic of my custom Wested jacket. The scalloped pockets sit quite low.

OK, I agree with Davejames, and started thinking I had lowered a bit too far after posting. So here's a revised lowering, sort of split the difference with davejames...


I think this looks correct, hopefully you guys will decide where is best.


Here's the new pocket position...

And here's the before - after - and after #2...

Sorry for the pocket assault, just want to solve this very simple issue quickly.

Thanks both of you for that. I sent it to iris though i had already sent Wor's first image i told her to ignore and follow the new one. Should be alright now.

 

[Wor-Gar]

OK, hopefully everyone else is good with it.


Now about that holster...?

I can ask her to send images of the belt and holster.

 

[TonTon]

Isn’t the belt/holster shown earlier in the thread, or was that a stand-in? Don’t remember much discussion of it.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I've never seen a proto of the gun belt + holster.

Yeah its in the thread gotta go back a few posts and you'll see it.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Oh yeah.... I forgot that it was included in the pictures of the shirt and pants way back when.

But I thought that was a test proto -- for size and shape. Because the milk chocolate color is all kinds of wrong. Is she going to make the gun belt darker brown/black? The holster and whip-keeper closer to a brown/reddish?

She's done such a great job on everything else surely she doesn't want people putting an improper gun-belt on that fantastic outfit?

I don't think so as many here said they can change the color of the belt and holster once we get it in and that there was no need. Plus i think the color of the holster is fine.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Well then... looks like this project is complete! Congratulations to all!

Now its literally about the wait for production. Exciting time, but impatience tortures.

 

[TonTon]

Can someone reassure me that futzing can achieve this?



The jacket is looking great but the collar still looks like a butterfly collar to me and seems like it might be tricky to tame.

Thanks.

Luis please can you update when you get a chance.

Thank you.

I think Wor-Gar’s “After 2” looks perfect

You did jump on outside the thread. Completely forgot you were a part of this. Lol

 

[Wor-Gar]

This may be a stupid note but Iris needs to lower both pockets equally, not just the one on the right that I did.


TonTon: I totally get your concern and its one of mine too as I pointed out that issue with the collar bulking up with the "shirt collar" design. I doubt anyone can guarantee you'll get the look you want, but I'm hoping water and some heavy pressing overnight will get that collar to lay flatter. If not, perhaps a little fabric-tac to hold it down.

Yeah she isn't dumb that only one pocket will be fixed. Lol

I'm sure she's not. But the things I've seen...

 

[Jbeltram4]

I think the collar, with some water or oil treating and some clips to hold it in place for a bit, will be fine. Even with the thinnest possible material, it would probably do that in this scale without some working.
