i want that shirt too!!!!....where can we get this?!?!?!
 
Re: Roddy Piper sculpt and clothing set from THEY LIVE - by CAINE - WIP POSTED

Couple things. One, fabric for the shirt is finally on its way! Two, I've been trying to source a good denim but with little success. What I've found is a good weight but the intended outside of the fabric is too dark for roddys jeans. Would it look ok to use the inside? Here's the fabric

Are you able to bleach and dye it? The inside looks good but I feel the outside would be yield better results. Most important is the thickness of the fabric though. Great work!

Yeah inside looks ok, but like Brains said thickness is important. Do you know if the shirt fabric is white inside?

The outside is too dark yes.Inside looks ok from what i can see.If you have either Hot Toys First Blood M65 Jacket version or the first Barney Ross figure,you can compare the fabric to the jeans that came with those.Cheap material,but you get the idea of the colour.
