My Indy Gear Seen in Spear of Destiny

Fellow Adventurers,

I just re-posted the slideshow/storyboard for my Indiana Jones and the Spear of Destiny on Vimeo.

My gloves are cowhide Wells Lamont Driver gloves. The only way they differ from the Raiders gloves is that they have a palm patch.

My whip is from JRZoe on E-Bay from a few years ago, a 12-plait 8-footer, although I also have a 12-plait, 12-footer.

My shirt is my favorite piece of clothing, a large from Todd's Costumes. I have more than one. I can't recommend these enough. They are exactly right and quite durable.

The bag is also from Todd's. Even though I have a Mark VII from What Price Glory that is authentic, the Todd's is an perfect reproduction and has stood up to a LOT of real wear and tear both in the wilderness and during filming. The strap, which is styled after the Last Crusade strap is from Magnoli, and it is excellent.

The pants are L.L.Bean Dress Khakis from 2008. I dyed them to resemble pinks by mixing Rit dark khaki powder dye (1 package), Rit golden yellow powder dye (1/4 package) and two big dashes of Rit brown liguid dye. Bean has since offered a new shade of their dress khakis, "Dark Driftwood," which is very close to pinks, although my 2008 Beans, which I dyed, are as close as any I've seen.

I am working on the edits/sound/music/special effects for Spear of Destiny now. Expect the finished product sometime in January.
