I'm also an avid collector of Star Wars: Comics, UCS Lego, Lightsabers, Diecast Ships & some figures. Lord Of The Rings statues & Lego. World Of Warcraft: Comics, figures, Mega Bloks.

I also really enjoy reading these are some of my favourite authors: Raymond E Feist, Terry Brooks, David Eddings, Kevin J Anderson, Timothy Zahn David Gemmell, Lee Child, Clive Cussler, Stephen Coonts & Matthew Reilly to name afew.

Due to many years in hospitality I have a healthy collection of both wine & spirits so its understatement to say that I enjoy entertaining.

Tropicana (Jaana) · Posted: Tue Nov 20, 2012 5:01 am Post subject:

Hello! This is my first post, it's nice to meet you all Smile

FORUM NAME: Tropicana

REAL NAME: Jaana

HOW DID YOU FIND OUT ABOUT US?: I first saw you guys at Adelaide Armageddon 2011 and have known about the 501st for a while, though it's only been within the last couple months that I've found out about the Rebel Legion. I met a few of you at Supanova over the weekend and had a chat, which is why I have joined these forums!

FAVOURITE STAR WARS CHARACTER: Shaak Ti

FAVOURITE STAR WARS MOVIE: Episode III

FAVOURITE TV SHOWS: the Clone Wars, South Park, Black Books, the IT Crowd, Red Dwarf

COSTUMES YOU HAVE: None at this stage, I'm a complete newcomer to the costuming scene. I have basic sewing skills and a sewing machine, it has been a lack of funds and confidence which has prevented me from creating any costumes as yet.

COSTUMES YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE: My goal is to one day costume as Shaak Ti, in the meantime a human Jedi Knight and a Twi'lek Jedi Consular.

ANYTHING ELSE YOU ARE INTO OR LIKE TO TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF:
I'm one week away from completing my Bachelor of Pharmacy degree and will be moving to Whyalla at the end of the year to work as a pharmacy intern. I currently volunteer at Riding for the Disabled, helping disabled children and adults to ride horses and ponies.

I think that what you guys do with the Rebel Legion is really admirable and I would love to be a part of it in the future Smile

I've had a quick read of the RL charter and rules, but I would really appreciate if you could give me some advice on where to go from here.

Hi there, thank you for signing up to our forums. We would love to have you on board as a member !! Very Happy

It's awesome that you volunteer at Riding for the disabled.

We do a lot of charity work, if you're already doing some you are gonna fit in here just perfectly !! *lol*

Where you go from here is: You are welcome to post on any of the threads that you can see in the forum. When you get an approved costume you will get access to a members only area also which is nice Smile

Shaak Ti whilst it would be amazing to have one, we don't have one in Australia let alone Adelaide, is a difficult first choice. If you want to enquire about that one you could post what you are trying to complete here:

http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=21

and you'd probably find some help there.

the costume standard requirements for that costume is here:

http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8882

an easier way to get to participate is a generic Jedi.

You'd need your own Force FX, Hasbro FX or Master Replica lightsaber (not toys) & the rest of a generic Jedi costume.

Standards can be found here:

http://www.rebellegion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=39468

I make Jedi belts if you require -that I can help you. You can get some reasonable things on ebay, maybe that might be worth looking at.

Hope that helps you a bit. If you need anything else don't be afraid to ask questions- we are here to help you Smile

the other thing is, you mention that you have a sewing machine & sewing skills....don't be a afraid. I'm sure you can create a Jedi. There are patterns, help & tutorials around.

This is a hobby that is worth persisting with. You get a great feeling out of dressing in a Star Wars costume & making people smile & helping charities.
