Tenyon, that pic of you jumping,...ROCKS!! It looks exactly like that production still of Lara, been trying to find it, but can't. Do you know the one I mean? 'Blues

I had seen the still images before in your photo album, and they looked great as they were. But, let's face it, most images are even better with a soundtrack aren't they? I vote for you to play Lara Croft in any future movies they make. Ken

I really appreciate al the comments lads! The song I used came from the legal photobucket pool of songs, it's named "So I fly-by Hugo". PH: I'm just a curious nut and love to make stuff. Everyone assembles their costume in their own way, I usually take the hard way (maybe sometimes not the smartest thing to do ). I'll have to look that group up on the web. I've never heard of them. After hearing the song though I want to check out their work. I guess in some ways "Indy Fans" are kind of lucky. We've got vendors out there supplying a lot of stuff for us to just go out and buy. I wouldn't imagine Lara (even though she is popular) has the same kind of support when it comes to buying her "gear". Of course I haven't really searched the net for her stuff either. I just don't think I'd look good in those tight black shorts! ;D I think it's great that your able to make all of your own stuff including the props like the sword from Legend. I'm lucky I even know how to put my gear on without needing help. Well, I did make own whip holder without loosing any fingers so I'll give myself that much. ;D Keep posting your stuff. It's nice to be able to look at someone without facial hair for a change. ;D

Blues: first of thank you! And yes I know what you mean, I was trying for something like that when I jumped. Glad to see you recognize it a little bit in the picture! (yay, success!) Ragingblues: It doesn't even make pictures better, but it's also more fun to watch and if the pictures are crap you can always listen to the soundtrack. Thank you for the vote btw, I'm speechless . Harry: you're mad! You have the perfect body for a little black dress, I think it will look smashing on you, especially with some nice black pumps with it . Lara gear (accurate) is not easy to obtain on the internet. Usually you're stuck to some very big military holsters instead of 'lady like' gear. And of course it's a nice challenge to make the Lara gear on your own. It's always nice to see how everybody have their own little versions of the gear, all looking very good, but just a twist of personal input in it.

I think the personal twists put into the gear make things much better. If everyone could just buy items 1-6 and have the full outift, how much fun would that be? It's the hard work, attention to detail, and creativity that really helps make these sorts of hobbies more fun. No matter what the character is or how much is involved in getting the look right, it has to be fun for us. Great work, Ken

Well, my wife worries enough about me dressing up like Indy. If I started wearing little black shorts or dresses then the next thing I'd be wearing is a custom fitted straight jacket! ;D Besides, I think my butt is to big. ;D

This is awesome Tenyon. I'm surprised you're not in movies or something.
Uh, PH, no offense, but this image is rotting my already simple brain. Not good, not good... We'll leave the little black shorts for Tenyon. Although, JLo would be proud of you for trying. ;D

At the risk of scaring away new membership and driving away current members I'll keep my butt safely tucked away for the moment. I'm sure G-Mann and RagingBlues would appreciate that as well. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Tenyon's photographs and gear are really fantastic. Everything seems to be spot on. She's incredibly convincing as Lady Croft. Any photos of Pitfall in tiny shorts is something I can live without.

You're truly gifted in the costume and prop department, Tenyon. The video is great though I snuck onto your signature link to see some of the other things you've put on. Have you found a character you don't look good as? You look great as all of them. The Lara shots are very cool! Any new photos on the horizon?

I do think I would look terrible as a big blonde pineapple, but that's personal taste of course *grin*. For new pictures I first need to finish my classic Lara outfit, or find a good photographer were I'm comfortable with and of course knows Lara a little. I'm an absolute nightmare with a self timer. There is another Lara look a like who is THE self-timer+photoshop queen, but unfortunately I'm not blessed with those skills ;D .

Yeah, I can sympathize with you on that. I guess my biggest problem with the self-timer is when I'm trying do pictures cracking my whip. I've gotten lucky a few times and caught the whole whip in the frame with me but most of the time it's all over the place. ;D Well, it's to bad your not over here in the states. We've got some talented photographers here on this forum that I'm sure would be more than happy to help you out.

I think the majority of us here would like to see that Slave Leia costume finished first and I'm not ashamed to say it. C'mon guys, don't be lame. Back me up. I bet you're hotter than she is though. So, let's see this Lara. Do you have your stuff on Zendragons site, Adventurers Place?

Lol, yeah you stand there counting till ten start jumping/kicking/ at eight and hope for the best. You do have some pretty darn good photographers over there yes, I noticed that before. The ones that are good over here don't do these kind of stuff anymore for fun because they are verry busy with wedding photography etc. so what's left are the creepy photographers, or the people who aren't that good with a camera yet (and when they get good they get spotted and make loads of money.... ;D).

On the subject of the "Self Timer Queen" Corellia is her name and she does a mean line in Corellians (naturally!) and Sith. And she is hot. (Sorry Corellia your ears must be burning).

I imagine the "creepy factor" is pretty high, when looking for a photographer to take pictures of an attractive, scantily clad female. That's unfortunate for someone in your situation, as you have many great costumes to be photographed in. I take all my own photos with the timer, and manage to get what I'm shooting for... even if it takes a few tries. I guess it's a toss up for you, between practicing more with the timer... or finding the right guy that won't try to turn the photo session into something else. Until you find the right person, keep on trying with the timer. We always enjoy seeing cool gear/costume photos from all types of characters. Ken

Lol at the slave leia request. Yes, well I wish it was finished to, I only have such problems with making certain aspects of the costume, I first want to make a cast of my torso before going further.....and of course, that's a lot of money. Corellia is hot, she's actually hotter than hot (she can give you a pretty good jaw drop reaction), you can visit her and me on the raiderquest forum. @ragingblues: I will do, thank you. I hope to have some new "making off' pictures of Nefertiri in a few days.
