Jango's Poncho

I am looking for the picture of Jango wearing the poncho. I was also wondering what would be a good way of makeing.

sorry, but what´s the poncho?¿

I have an image of it somewhere. let me find it.

I was thinking of doing one too..but i might be using a diff material...something more silky but a bit close to boba's cape condition...with holes and marks...

anyway the pic...

Uh? When does he wear that?

I think when he gets coffee and a hot dog outside the studios and wasn't allowed to show the costume around

Or his baby bib.

Oh, lol!
And want do you want to make one of that?


that´s not a costume part

He wears it in a cut scene where Padme and Anakin are on trial by Count Dooku. Pretty nifty I say.

I always wondered why Jango didn't have any "cape" like element to his armor since Boba did, but that thing covers up way to much of his awesome armor!

Frank

Jango doesn't wear any form of trophies from the hunt like we see predator and boba fett do... wich is supposed to be an ancient ritual here one arth by ancient cultures etc.

boba's sign of "dont screw with me" are the cape, braids and the killstripes.

also the heavily weathered armor with the "shocking" skull symbol must be signs of warning and competence.

whereas Jango looks like a power ranger, Boba looks like a lazy "bum" who doesnt spend time cleaning and maintaining his stuff

Its remenisent of McQuarrie's Old Drawing oF Boba Fett on Cloud City in the Brownish/Tan Poncho.

i was thinking of doing a jango cape, with some ammopunts of weathering on it and sliding it on hisleft shoulder...cpovering most of his left side only....

I always thought the cape in that drawing was unusally similar to the poncho Luke ends up with in episode 4. It's also interesting to see that Boba's shoulder cape started out life as a more "poncho-like" accent. (In that same drawing it seems like it only covers the front shoulder-to-shoulder.) Very Eastwood like.

hi

i got material at walmart up here $2 a meter same weave but a light green iam going to dye it

Resurrecting this thread here, but...how many of you would be interested in a run of this poncho if my girlfriend made a quality one of it?(EG: she makes it, I put it on me whilst wearing my jango armor, and post a thread with pics, and we get a run started?)

Of course..we'd figure out pricing and such later I suppose.

I had a hard time finding the fabric so my endeavor never got off the ground.

not sure i can see a weave. looks almost woolen to me

I have the fabric but me and my girlfriend are going to make it out of a muslin first, and figure it out "pattern wise" and then use that to make more out of the actual fabric.

Sorry for dragging this out of the back, but... Did anyone ever do one of these?
I was thinking it might be a neat little touch.

If someone want to do it, IMO it looks a kind of Tweed.

Here is a pic on which you can see a close up, and some others to compare to the real poncho. Not the same colors, but the texture looks really close, but it's just my opninion.

I was working on one made from raggy looking cotton... it is the right color and everything.... not tweed though.

It looks more like a linen to me.

I hadn't seen this thread on my first pass. I hadn't even known about this cut scene, and it's interesting to see that there were two Jango ponchos. This one is the one that was evidently settled upon for filming, but there was also one that was in costume tests that I like better. I only have one picture of it on my computer, and the web site it was on seems to be defunct. I never got an answer from the site owner when I asked about a clearer version, and the last time I was there, it didn't seem to exist at all. But anyway, something else to toss into the mix...

See how this linen weave looks? A linen with some defining lines, should be around somewhere

I like it! I will go today to the fabrics store and I will take a look on it!

wow, i didnt even realize this "actually existed" but, if it ended up on the cutting room floor, i guess it technically didn't. i've seen the deleted scenes and never noticed it. guess i'll have to rewatch it. the only place i'd ever seen the poncho was on the tac jango fett action figure.

No luck with the fabric, I have only found some twill for the boba flightsuit...

If she doesn't do any i found some on the merc forums going to do one for me ^^

I just bought some linen that looks to be the right color and texture... if you want the link, I can post it for you.

Thanks,
Tony

Why are you asking that? POST IT!

I doubt that I will make these, but I would like to see the link too.


POST, POST, POST

hahaha, I should have learned by now to just post the info, lol.

I found that when looking for this fabric, it is much like the flightsuit debacle... must be dark blue enough, but not too blue, less saturated, kind of greyish/dark blue also with a hint of purple.

https://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail...9-1b7688fc018a

The link is what I found and will be using, with the raggy looking cotton (as I posted above) as backing material.

looks like the fabric they put on bus and airplane seats haha

cant wait to see it

Great material. Based off the pictures alone, it's easy to see the cloth is loosely but securely woven for a thick cross-stitch. Perfect for the poncho, though, I'm concerned with the thought that it might be punctured or pulled apart too easily. Also, do you think you'll have any trouble dying the cloth?

Hey Tony sorry for reviving an old tread, but looking to have one of this made, you ever got to make yours?

JAngo's Poncho material is a herring bone pattern denim material. Jo-anns believe it or not had some a few months ago that is a close as you will get with out being in an Upholster fabric. I might be albe to post a picture of the material and I might have the SKU #

That would be awesome, thanks Bubba!!

Hey Bubba, had a chance to lookup the SKU and/or pics?
LMK
Thanks!

I will post pictures late today or tomorrow THe material I used was from Jo-Ann Denin Herringbone SKU# 01288026 100% cotton spring bottom weight clearence $5 per yard

I have bought this fabric from B. Black & Sons, and think it looks pretty good. It's 100% wool, and it has the herringbone pattern, though it's a little more narrow than the original.



I'll add a quote of the close-up picture provided by Foxbatkllr for comparison:

Found some DARN good fabric that is close to this!!! clearanced at JoAnns even!!



My new poncho will be made from this stuff

what's the name of that fabric? i might get around to making a poncho someday.

Anyone have a pattern for this poncho, or a good picture on how it looks stretched out.
Going to get to work on it this weekend to have it done for a con coming up in february.
Any help would be appreciated.

Time to resurrect an old thread (necromancing +1 )

Here is the poncho I finally had my seamstress make... I might have a little extra left over if someone may want it.





ORIGINALS (just in case you don't scroll up )

That fabric looks pretty perfect. I was tempted to make one as well just for giggles, so I need to go to Joanne to look for the fabric.

Do you have a picture of how it looks from a distance, and possibly laying out flat?

Awesome! Is there more fabric anywhere?

I haven't been able to find anymore at JoAnns

Seeker NEEDS this, as he is a look alike

do you happen to knwo the name of that fabric? i'm sure it can be found online.

I'm not sure the name of the fabric... maybe I could bring it back to JoAnns and ask them if they know

as for the little bit extra I had, I sent it to Seeker since he was the one who asked first and has been looking for this stuff for quite a while.

This is great!!! Nice find.

I'll check the Joanne's out here. I wonder if they have a usable pattern too.

A huge shout out to Tlobe! This frabric is amazing!

I can't seem to remember getting stocked like these for a Jango Fett piece. Your the man T-Bow!


Seeker

Thanks man! ... it means a lot getting a shout out from the man himself

I think I need to make it a point to figure a way to Florida this summer and crash on someone's floor just so we can rock C6 as Jangos!

That Poncho is AWESOME! Great job. I think you possibly just added another significant piece to an already iconic character.

That's an awesome poncho TLobe00....
