New Female recruit - Squid - Tuesday 26-May-2015
Hello everyone!
I'm from the Southwest side of Brisbane and am looking at starting with the 501st after getting to hang with the crowd during Supanovas and Star Wars Weekends at Disney. I've also signed up to the forums of Tatooine Base to get an idea of the 'good guys'
I'm just not sure where to begin in terms of costumes. I wouldn't mind a female character costume and have looked at Asajj Ventress but am not overly keen on the idea of a skull cap (I have a lot of crazy curls)
Any help would be extremely appreciated

Hey again Squid
you can have a look through the Costume Resource library at http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CRL this lists the options.
Ventress is a kickass character but I'll let Moxxxie talk more about that
other choices in females would be Female Tuskan, Visas Marr, Bo Katarn or Mara Jade (there is more but cant think of the names at moment)
but dont forget the hardworking minions in shiny white armour (or not so shiny if you'd rather be a sandtrooper)... always funny when someone assumes can only by a "guy" in the trooper armour
RE: New Female recruit - Squid - Tuesday 26-May-2015
I am all about the hard working white minions Duras!
Very funny moment on Sunday at dreamworld when one spoke to a little boy and he freaked out because she had a girly voice! Ahh, gender norms.
Loving the idea of Bo Katan - armour for the win!!
Thanks for your help gem :D

I'd bet that was Sam (Crea8ive) .... she does a brilliant statue impression too

Yes! It was, over by the R2-D2.
Also, no way in heck would I have the body to pull off Mara Jade (in her black bodysuit) - body goals haha

Hi Squid, welcome to the Redbacks.

Hi Squid,
Glad to see we talked you over to the darkside.
You could also look at a bikerscout a few of us girls do scouts it's a great costume for all sizes(I'm 5"1)
If you sign up to Flagship Eclipse there are a lot of ideas for cool female characters there.
Welcome to the redbacks!

Welcome! It might suprise you to know we have a female Vader that lives amongst us. So dont feel you are confined to a gender role!

I remember the "It's a girl in there" from that little boy, when I spoke.
It isn't only the younglings that get a surprise by a girl being in the Stormtrooper either.
