Originally we were trying to think of characters with facial hair that Chase could do – we came up with Green Arrow, but we weren’t too keen on the traditional look. So we decided to come up with our own modernized Green Arrow look for him.
The hat is pretty much the only part of this that’s staying as-is. He bought that online somewhere.
The tunic is the mock-up – the real one will be made of green suede, and will lace up at the front there. We haven’t decided how to shape the bottom, as you can see we tried a couple of things last night, but it’s hard to tell without the armor on top.
He a friend of his are working on armor that goes on top of the tunic. He’s got designs for it somewhere that I could possibly upload – I’m not really sure how to explain it.
The pants are leather motorcycle pants he bought off ebay. The white sections are going to be re-dyed green.
The boots he got on ebay and we’re re-doing the top of them with new buckles and a different upper section.
He’s working on some gauntlets, as well as a quiver. The bow he picked up at some store around here, and is going to repaint it and I think he wants to add lights and stuff.
My black canary is going to look very plain next to him LOL
Speaking of which, she’ll be finished this weekend, so I’ll have pics.

That looks really good! Couple costumes are so much fun! š
That’s looking really cool! Love the idea of modernizing it a bit. š The motorcycle pants are great!
