Well, I have some ideas that are out there, but I will keep most to myself.
Lets just say we are trying to keep it "Indy Style" still...what I would propose at the bare minimum is his whip should be black or brandy. Let's say his whip is heavily used and a decade or so old still. It would possibly be Brandy dark or Black. Let's say he could choose the color. It should be black or brandy. He does a lot of covert work at night. Why wouldn't he want a whip that is better desquised by the darkness of night?
As for the other ideas...I will keep them under my fedora

So the gist of the post is you have lots of ideas on the whip for Indy 5 or that you ARE making the whip for Indy 5? And you're not going to say anything about what you're posting about?
And that...... basically you'd make an "indy style" whip for Indy..... and make it in a dark color... because Indy does covert work at night? He does?
Indy's overall color scheme is earth toned so I guess a brandy color would do the job.....
Lol...wasn't trying to be mysterious. I don't know who has the contract if anybody yet. But I have some ideas I will keep just in case I am contacted. You think by now Indy being a world traveler would have picked up I whip somewhere else and not just have a natural style Indy. Things change. He uses different guns. Any sword you find grab etc... Would be nice to even just see an accent tone on the knots atleast.

Things change? hahaha the guy has been wearing the same style hat, jacket, pants, shirt, satchel and shoes for 40 or more years
But yes, he's changed his gun a few times and his whip color has changed from the light tan in Raiders to the dark brown in TOD and LC to what he uses in CS though the style of the whip has roughly stayed consistent.
I've always wanted Indy to have a slightly different style here and there just to show that he's grown and things have been used and replaced. Just like how Rick O'Connell in the Mummy series sticks to the same type of adventure gear but it still changes here and there.
