Still some work to do to it. there has been a few changes to it since the last time I wore it.
Also to finally add the buttons on the sleeves that is missing.
Get new trousers and work on the make up

I hope so, well it's finding stuff to replace the gold tape on his jacket that will stand out.
Also a new ribbon for his necktie thing.
Will do!

Ahh. Well what I used was gold ribbon as a base and over that I had this other trim (?) to make it look more authentic.

I have Gold film as a replacement since it's shiny... I guess I could back it with ribbon to make it stand out.
Also do need gold string rope for some detail.
Could you get a picture of a closer view of it?

Cool. ^_^
Will do.
It just finding ribbon that will work underneath the gold film and won't fray badly when cut.

Here's my tip for when cutting any sort of ribbon. After you make the initial cut, sear the ends a bit (with a small flame/ match) so that the they will 'fuse' together. That will prevent any more fraying because the ends have been sealed. Just a little heads up though, it won't necessarily work will all ribbons but for most it will.

When you say sear, whats the difference between that and setting the thing alight?
I did hear clear nail polish works as well.

Well by searing it, you're only letting the tip of the flame skim the edge. Setting it alight...well...that's a different story altogether XD
Maybe try trialling both methods and choose the one you think works best?

Haha xD, no that's just supposed to look like the 'light' reflecting off the strings ^^" Seeing as they're more like invisible wires.
Thanks!
