Costuming workshop and social meet-up (Jan, 2013)

Post by MattG »

Over on the Rebel Legion forums, we're organising a costuming workshop and social meet-up to take place on January 27th.

http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=44632

This is a cross-post of the details. If you're interested in costuming and keen to come along, send me a message. The emphasis is on Rebel/Good Guy costumes, but we won't turn you away if you have other Star Wars projects you want to get involved with ;)
To get Rebel costuming rolling in the new year, Naboo Outpost will be running a costuming workshop and social meet-up on Sunday 27th January, 2013 (Auckland Anniversary weekend).

This event will be run in Auckland (Birkenhead), but will be an all day event to make it worthwhile attending for current or prospective members who are from other regions - starting from 10am, and running through to about 5pm (...or maybe even later...might turn into a barbecue in the evening, depending on numbers).

If you want to get advice about any costumes, help others with their costume projects, make progress on your own projects, or just swap ideas and discuss Good Guy costuming in general, this will be a great opportunity. We'll have on hand examples of Rebel Pilots, Clones, Royalty costumes, Jedi, and more. Bring your finished or in progress costumes along for show-and-tell...we can even muster up props, droids, other costumers etc for a few photoshoots.

Shame :( There will always be more, though...hopefully on a more frequent basis in 2013 :)

Good on you Matt for hosting these.


I've received all of the main components of Kiwi-P-O.
I'll be starting my workshops in Wellington next Sunday 13th January.

Reminder time...just over one week to this meet-up.

If you haven't confirmed directly with me, please do so...keen to get solid numbers, as we'll organise food for lunch. Family are welcome.

Had a very enjoyable day today. Thanks to all those who came along and got involved (I think we had about 20 people in total at the peak of the day). I hope everyone found it useful to progress a few costuming projects, and enjoyed the social aspect as much as we did.
