Checking with Wested and S&J on the ToD jacket. More choices on leather and much faster delivery with Wested but my 2 S&J jackets are really nice. A Raiders in ribby and an LC/CS jacket.
Ah yes I see, that makes sense. So it's essentially closer to the Hero. I rather assumed Wested's TOD was basically their standard Raiders jacket with a more tailored fit and small pockets...Major West said:It's just the way the jacket pattern is. The ToD jacket is an exact pattern copy of a ToD film jacket that was loaned to Wested by the estate of Noel Howard. Since the ToD was allegedly based on a Jacket from the first film I presume the overall fitting of that jacket (for Harrison Ford) stayed the same. The slouching shoulder is a feature of the Hero Raiders jacket, I understand.
Major West said:Interesting to hear the lambtouch is heavier than you thought. I was wondering if that would be a good Last Crusade skin.

I had been considering a TOD for a while, but then opted for my custom Raider.
I do like the idea of snug yet slouchy though...

Drones33 said:Looks tremendous in these scenes. I think it would take a lot of work to achieve this look. Be great if it can be done though. There's a guy here at the Raven, Indytim I think...who made his look kind of like this by using acetone. Big job though by the sounds of things, ( 11 bottles of acetone apparently.)
Ever used Fullers Earth? I'd like to give it a try. Can't help thinking it would come off the leather and end up all over the furniture however.
Nice screenshots by the way. The first one really shows off the silver zip nicely.
