Great custom!

I finally got around to taking some new pics so here's my PF surrounded by his many friends...

 
Here it is with the final version of the jacket. This jacket went through about 5 complete revisions, from scratch, and is actual very close to the original jacket, only it is made from extremely thin goat skin (which is why it hangs so well on his body) and is 2 cm longer (one version was 4 cm longer and did not look right as was pointed out to me here).

I love that jacket! It's the only thing that I really don't like about mine. It's almost green in color but yours looks great. :rock

SIDESHOW, take note. THIS is how Indy's jacket should look and hang on the PF. The one you guys have made is WAY too short. While I LOVE my Indy PF (my fave PF of all time), the short jacket takes away from the overall look a bit...:angelsmil
 
I got almost the same look on my stock PF jacket just by pulling his pants up a bit. It was a bit short, yes, but the pants were also put on too short in the first place. I really do like this jacket tho. Let's see some pics of the back, please.
 
Thanks for the comments.

Here are some different shots:

And, just so you can see the difference in color between the "Kermit the Indy" original and the revised version:

Now that the jacket is done, I am moving on to the pants, then the shirt. The Officer Pinks color was VERY hard to find, but, after a few days of looking in my spare time I found it here in Hong Kong. The same lady who made the jacket, made the pants, they are pretty much an exact copy, but I had them made just a "little bit" baggy. Please note that the shirt is from the Diamond Select, and is just there until I get the shirt finished up (I would think in about 2 weeks time).

Hmmm....is that a different sculpt? Also now he looks too pale. I think with a little more work he will look great. :cool:
 
OK, just got the shirt today, with the screen accurate colored the new shirt and new pants I think that they are an improvement to an already excellent PF from Sideshow.
