My best guess is they may have thought the vote was botted. They’re still on there since people wrote them in multiple times though, so we can still vote for them again.

IJJTM

Very nice, some of the details remind me of the adventerbilt holster.

IJJTM

I just voted for all 3, I accidentally added the one with the brown grips not knowing about the search function at first. The brown grip version was used in a few scenes in Last Crusade and the picture is from prop store.

IJJTM

Denix is currently taking votes for what guns they should make next, the Webley WG is currently at around 130 or so, the more votes it gets the more likely Denix is to take a crack at recreating it. https://www.denix.es/en/suggestions/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1LHeQcyN1reqzqCh0J6boslb0GJasYCaI19yq...

CS is more Khaki, sand is closer for LC and DOD.

IJJTM

I’m pretty sure Make it Jones provided some for the film and he wrote about the ones he provided including the decorated studs.

IJJTM

Those look phenomenal! Did you bevel the edges of the belt and holder?

IJJTM

I’d highly recommend against buying from him, I’ve been waiting a year and a half for my order, and he still hasn’t shipped it. Also, my friend was able to get one and the quality control was atrocious, like there are bubbles and pretty sizable air pockets and you can feel how hollow it is.

IJJTM

Pretty sure it was just brass buckles, but it seems like the shape changed a bit between films.

IJJTM

I’d recommend getting a used pair from eBay, it’d be a lot cheaper and you would actually, know what you’re getting. I’ve had a friend complain about quality control in a few pairs that he bought directly from Alden.

IJJTM

Those are the same kind of shirt. The front pleat is always over the pocket in that film.
The only difference I’ve noticed in them is that sometimes the warehouse shirt has an X stitch on a single button compared to the parallel stitch that’s seen the rest of the time.

IJJTM

To my knowledge raiders and temple are about the same, I would say any color difference is likely due to lighting.

IJJTM

I’d just ask Thomas, I think he’s used to getting bludgeoned with questions. If you’re not sure, I’d lump a few questions into the email.

Hi Michaelson

Could you post fresh link for this. This one does not work anymore.

Regards

For old links replace .com with .net

IJJTM

Prettt sure the rumor started because of when the cross is grabbed from the bag in LC. Realistically, they probably used more than one manufacturer. I’d just focus on the color and studs for accuracy.

IJJTM

Prices are up to date. If you plan to order from them, the sooner the better since they have a long wait time. Also, not sure about their DOD leather since they’ve gone through a few types. As for their CS, it’s okay, but not the same color or texture as what Nowak used in the film.

IJJTM

I've cracked many of his whips, and he does excellent work. I learned to whip with 9 and 10-footers, but that's not always the way to go. I think you'd be fine going with 8 feet, and it'd look better on your belt, but you may find six easier to crack. Eight feet would also work better for doing wrap...

IJJTM

Forgot to mention, I dyed it in Khaki a few weeks ago after using color remover. I got the same pinkish result, but the. I mixed some green in and got a nice light khaki. I’m going to mix some grey in later though to get it closer to a KOTCS color. What brand did you use? I think RIT. Whichever bra...

IJJTM

I’ve personally used paracord whips by Eliason whip co and Swordguybuilds, both make superb paracord whips.

IJJTM

I haven’t owned any leather jackets from them, but I did see one of my friend’s a few days ago and it looked pretty solid. His was a raiders in cow. I’m not sure if I’ve seen one of their jackets with a Ribby lamb like was used in the film though.

IJJTM

If I had to guess, I’d assume the film was homaging Indy.

IJJTM

According to imfdb they are indeed S&W 1917’s. Not sure if the grips are the same though.

IJJTM

I’d recommend looking into other cobblers to resole your current pair. If you really want new ones I’d recommend hunting eBay for a bit to find one in your size for about half the price of a new one.

IJJTM

I may be in the minority, but I find volleys to be a lot easier with my Jacka compared to my Morgan-styles Indy’s. But it took a bit to get used to the weight.

IJJTM

Looks great!

IJJTM

Has your question been answered? I could take some measurements of mine after work if you need anymore.

IJJTM

That looks great! What kind of leather is it?

IJJTM

Neither are good whips when it comes to cracking, aesthetically Magnoli is better, but if you want a whip that looks nice and cracks decently, I’d go with Todd’s Costumes. It won’t hold up as well as a custom made kangaroo whip, but out of the cheaper whip options I’ve seen it holds up the best.

IJJTM

Looks pretty good so far. I’ve been dabbling with the idea of making a CS holster eventually, so I’m curious to see how your Raiders turns out.

IJJTM

It already sold out. It was essentially destiny poets, that were distressed the same way as they were in the film by the same artisans that did it for the film.

IJJTM

Yeah, I thought that was a possibility too.

IJJTM

In that shot it kind of looks like an upside down d ring.

IJJTM

I personally went with true sable. Sure it’s dark at first, but when the sun starts making the color fade, it’s gonna fade into the perfect color, while I feel like the other colors start off looking right, then progressively get lighter than you’d want.

IJJTM

I’m not seeing a D ring. I think it’s a trick of the light. The fabric of the bag is bunched up indicating a round ring to me. I would expect the fabric to be flatter if the bottom of the ring was the flat side of a D ring. I realize these bags were made by many makers over the course of the war an...

IJJTM

If I’m not mistaken all the times it looks like D rings, I think it’s the same bag strap with the 3 distinctive tally marks a little above the buckle.

IJJTM

I’m not sure if this has been discussed before, if it has please link it since I couldn’t find any. But, after looking closely in Raiders, it looks like Indy’s bag has D instead of O rings. It’s easiest to see it when Indy fights the swordsman, topples the Anubis statue, and before he enters the Hov...

IJJTM

The pictures didn’t work, and I don’t know about resewing the sweatband unless you’d consider yourself fairly proficient in sewing. I’d recommend folding the sweatband in half like they did for some of the original Raider hats.

IJJTM

I’ve seen some people use mk vi’s before and change those out. There was a guy doing a decent replica of the WG a few months back, but I’ve had issues with his customer service.

IJJTM

Of the ones you listed I’d recommend Todd’s, but Azuma is generally considered the best when it comes to Indy shirts if you can get one from him. Todd's looks great! it has a more brownish color than the normal grey that most have. but i actually like it. I just checked Azuma's store on etsy but sa...

Of the ones you listed I’d recommend Todd’s, but Azuma is generally considered the best when it comes to Indy shirts if you can get one from him.

IJJTM

Throughout the years they used whips from many makers also including Paul Nolan of Midwest whips and Joe Strain.

IJJTM

I’ve seen jackets made with both leathers in person, I personally prefer the striated leather.

IJJTM

That’s really cool.

IJJTM

Like Loneken said, I’m pretty sure it was a rubber stunt whip they had on display.

IJJTM

With your budget I’d recommend going with Nylon if you want something that’ll last a lifetime. Tomek makes great stuff from what I’ve seen, but I’d also recommend swordguybuilds and eliasonwhipco.

IJJTM

I’m wearing my cowhide Nowak in the same rain with no issues. Also, I’ve even worn rabbit hats in the rain and had no issues, but beaver would react better.

IJJTM

If you want the absolute closest thing to what Ford used in the first film, go for Paul Nolan’s 1936 Indy. If you want something that is dead on accurate looks-wise, but with a more refined handling, Del Carpio. But, both of them have long wait times. Joe Strain makes excellent whips, I wouldn’t say...

IJJTM

I always thought the captain shipped his stuff back to him after the adventure.

IJJTM

Where was that last picture taken? Is it green screened?
