So we’ve been working on this costume for years. And while we keep working to perfect it, it keeps evolving. But there’s one iconic piece of this costume that I’ve wanted to get just right for a long time. A perfect Sabine Wren helmet. Our original was a Mandalorian Arsenal which was made before the… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Sabine Wren, Part 3

Axel loves bounty hunters. Let’s just put that out there right now. And something else that Axel loves, is hanging out with his Mandalorian Merc family. After costuming with the family for a few years as a little Jedi and then taking up Ezra, Axel really wanted to be a Mandalorian. So doing a young… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Boba Fett
Ok so in part 1 I learned that building full armor takes a lot of cutting, sanding, glue, blood, and fingertips so here I continue to pay the price. Our build group of Kevin, Michael, Leeanna, Stacey, Emii, and Cam was still going strong. After trimming out the pieces, sanding the edges clean, and losing… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Jes Gistang, Part 2

So in part 1 we got Axel into his first Ezra! This time I’ll go over the improvements and changes we’ve done for this costume. Accessories Lightsaber The first year I tried to pick up one of those Rubies accessories but it just looked bad. The size and paint just weren’t even worth fixing. I… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Ezra Bridger, Part 2
The instant we saw the very first “Meet Ezra” video from Star Wars Rebels, Axel knew he was perfect. A street smart clever little Loth Rat who doesn’t mind sticking it to the Empire? Perfect. As I mentioned before in another costume journey, before the show, before the Spark of Rebellion I was working with… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Ezra Bridger, Part 1
So we had finally seen Star Wars Rebels. And boy were we inspired. We set to work on our improvements of Sabine Wren’s costume. We had more references now and we used them to make Sabine as best as we could! Her shoulders aren’t quite the flat Boba shape, they were more curved and so… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Sabine Wren, Part 2
In our family Sabine’s journey is an interesting one. When we met the character in the original Meet Sabine video… we caught our first glimpse of something we’ve never had in Star Wars before. An artist. Liz was sold. At the time she had the same haircut and she basically fit the character look perfectly… Continue reading Rogue Rebels Costume Journey: Sabine Wren, Part 1
