IRIS: Raiders of the lost Ark (Closed)

[Wor-Gar]

The new Shirt Kato made looks insanely good and he made it with the sleeves rolled up.

I do think that's the way to go.

I like the idea of having a complete shirt as much as anybody, however you never really see the cuffs peeking out of Indy's jacket sleeves, so they could be rolled up under there for all we know.

Can you shrink the size maybe, 800 high?

Tried to but it won't go up even then.

You contradict your previous comment, I understand what your saying that's why I think they should be made like yunsil shirt were they can be rolled up without issue and it will look accurate. The problem with Iris shirt sleeves is the cut at the wrist is to long and the cuffs are to big so it's way to stiff to roll up and make it look nice and flush without it looking oversized. That's why Yunsil shirt looks good for the Cario scene.

You contradict your previous comment....

I'm missing something, where did I contradict myself about wanting pre-rolled up sleeves for Cairo Indy like Kato did for his new shirt?

Didn't you say it doesn't work not to long ago because they won't look naturally rolled up?

"I do think that's the way to go" This I probably confused about the comment so do correct me

 

[Wor-Gar]

I said that -- I do think that's the way to go -- in response to your mention of the new Kato shirt that is being made without cuffs and comes pre-rolled.

Oh wait -- you didn't know its made without cuffs. That's the problem.

I've had to post the images on FB. FB loads them at a smaller resolution then I have to resave them from FB then they'll post

But didn't you say that's how it would work when making a Cario shirt? Also the cuffs wouldn't matter since you won't see them right.

Try soaking the sleeves in water and then rolling/folding them up. I've found this to be much more effective in keeping the look in scale.

That is the right spirit.
The thing about Indy : my comments about realistic proportions have no meaning when wearing his jacket on (as it hides the sides on that part), and all those great customs I can see here work perfectly even with the "wasp waist" bodies

Hi, sharing some pics with the VTS Blood Borne body, maybe this can help : IMHO it fits perfectly the Iris set, and compared to other bodies Indy may loses some muscle but he gains some "gracefulness" (don't know if you see what I mean)... probably most of you guys will prefer thicker arms & torso (especially for the Cairo version), but I wonder if Ford was that massive at the time of Raiders... and as said previously the larger waist makes it a bit more realistic in proportions, and it fills pants better on this part, they don't seem too loosy that way... even with the jacket on I can feel it. So thanks again Rezeznikk for the advice! Accessories are coming and I've also ordered an Inigo V3, should help to give a better look to my custom^^...

Ok since I'm on an Indy High. Lol I wanted to ask if anyone would be interested in a small run of web belts by Fullmetal Customs. I actually was the first who had it made and it is the most accurate raiders indy belt. Plus it works like the actual belt. The price on it is $150 but I'm sure with a lot of people it can drop to a fair price.

and here's me literally bought a Hot Toys web belt only hours ago

I use a free app on my phone called Photo and Picture Resizer which basically lets you take away the large memory of images without losing much quality in the image. It is the only way I can post images on here.

I hope someone will come up with a moldable Fedora some day. That would be awesome.

I would love a more accurate web belt, but $150 is steep. I might just try painting. If we can get that price down some, I’ll consider.

That's what I'm saying $150 is the price I paid because I had it made first. But if there is more interest it will go down and be something fair.

Get it down to £10 (including shipping) and you can count me in Luis.

Lol I don't think it will be that low but I think maybe like $90-70 that's not bad if you think about it. Also finally figured it out

 

[Luisenigma1]

Some more images. Just to show you what it looks like even in 1/4th scale. My figure has the belt on also.

 

[Ecklectic]

I have the full size ones and that does look spot on Luis. However, I'm pretty happy with the ones I have for my custom Indy collection at the moment.
