Little Oak pulls off the look better than you do John. I bet everyone will get a real kick out of his gear at the party. And even though it is a kids size hat, it is beautiful. You do great work and I can't wait for my Penman. All you have to do now is teach him how to string together a underhand crack, forward crack and circus crack and he is golden.BendingOak wrote:My 8 year old son has a birthday party to go to this weekend. A Indy party that all the kids have to dress in your best Indy gear.
Sometimes I just wish I lived in the U.S. or even better: had enough money to buy a private jet to fly me to those summitsbinkmeisterRick wrote:That's part of the joy of attending the Finger Lakes Summits, my friend. Curator Rick had the pedestal made, but he and his daughter created the rest. It's set up each year at the summit.![]()
Remember, Bink. That picture wasn't this year, it was the year before, when the Summit fell in the middle of that August heat wave. Several people nearly fainted that weekend. In fact, shortly after Canyon took that photo she had to go back to her hotel to get out of the heat!binkmeisterRick wrote: And Chewie, it wasn't THAT hot... well, with the leather jacket and beaver fedora, maybe.

So, with the fedora and jacket, it might have been 120 degrees!The upside is, Rick has lots of shade on his property! I seem to recall you stayed in it that day. Woos.

sorry thats week.Chewbacca Jones wrote:How about, "If you can't take the heat... carry some!" I think that would qualify as cop humor, wouldn't it?
Hey! You stole my gear!Switch625 wrote:Here's my newly completed "close enough" Indy gear.
Oops. I thought it would be at least a few more days before you noticed.Chewbacca Jones wrote:Hey! You stole my gear!![]()
Very close to what I put together at first. Great work. I like the color of the trousers, too. The whole think really comes together.
Agreed. I think most Indy pants look too light. To me, they have always seemed to be kind of a lighter milk chocolate color. Then again, because of lighting, the color of the pants change in just about every scene. For example, in the psychic interrogation scene of KOTCS, the pants looked practically straight up brown. It really all goes back to personal taste and which shot of which movie we think best represents the Indy look. For me, I wanted something off the rack but wasn't the typical tan khaki pants.Chewbacca Jones wrote:I think people underestimate how brown the Indy pants should be. Plus, the light Cabelas shirt makes the pants look darker. I bet that a more screen accurate shirt color would make the pants look lighter. Still, I stand by that shirt as the best close-enough on the market.
Thanks for the compliment! Actually, in all but the hangers picture, I'm wearing a Christys adventurer. In the hanger pic, it's my AB. thanks though!CairoIndy wrote:Great pics NIB!naW ibO bulC wrote:
