Mate, when I caught you on the stream I thought the uniform looked epic! Really well done. Glad you got the recognition from Randall as well, that's a biggie.

Tons of great feedback, I had a blast. Lots of people had some really nice things to say. I'd have to admit one of the highlights was Randall Bills telling me he liked the uniform. That was pretty cool.

Outfit came out great man, was cool to meet ya at the event, too!

I tried several times in chat to try to get Phil to grab you for a quick interview, but the chat stream was pretty much non-stop.

I just realized I haven't posted any pictures of me with the uniform on! I looked through my pics, and couldn't find a good one that showed the whole thing. Luckily a friend of mine offered to put it on and let me take some...

With friends like those... WHY THE HELL ARE YOU PLAYING STUPID VIDEO GAMES!!!

[Sean Lang]

I approve of this Davion costume!

[That Guy]

matt newman does not apparently

[RadioKies]

I had respect for what you where doing (nicely done and cool uniform, bag and report)... untill I saw the instagram shots with the female human in it. Why do people use instagram? It doesn't do the picture right. You lose a lot of detail that are the cool parts of the uniform.

Next up a Steiner uniform?

[Dirus Nigh]

I saw you in the back ground on the stream. The uniform looked great.

Yeah, I get where you're coming from. A couple of things though, no instagram was used here, just a couple of filters. Also, the pictures didn't show much detail in the first place (bad lighting, poor picture quality). This whole thread was close up pictures of those details, so I figured what the heck. Totally understand not liking a certain style choice when it comes to any photography or imaging, everyone has preferences. And of course, the point of those pics aren't really the uniform... ;-)

I would like to make uniforms for some of the other factions, and I probably will start with Steiner. They are all tempting and offer some unique opportunities for creative license. I have to finish a full dress and field uniform for Davion first, though. I believe I'll start with the Davion full dress uniform based (loosely) on this:

I'm not buying it. I think that's your girl, and you are here to humblebrag us all that a) she's willing to do fun poses in the super freaking cool uniform that you made, b ), she's super hot, and c) imply that there are additional more partially uniformed shots we aren't privy to.

I CALL SHENANIGANS!!

Ha! funny
a) she's a bit of a goofball, b) true, and c) alas, but nope.

She truly is just a good friend and coworker, but yeah,she's pretty cool.

Say you were to make another for someone you didn't know but who wanted one really bad. How much would you rate labor and materials? This individual would of course pay shipping and whatnot.

[Saladin Salazar]

Wonderful outfit and it looks so very cool.

[Hayden]

What the... WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME ABOUT THE FINAL PRODUCT!?!?!?!????? THIS IS AMAAAZING!

[Nathan Foxbane]

We thought you knew... or maybe we got distracted by his ambitious coolant vest design.

[Jacon Ceronia]

Fantastic work! And, just the right amount of Macross flavor for it to feel classic Davion. Love it!

Dude... BlueFly17... how much?!? I'd be interested in getting a custom BSI uniform

[XxXAbsolutZeroXxX]

Seeing BlueFly17's work makes me feel like taking up sewing and knitting.

Man. That looks so awesome.
