First, you've got the recognizable double tank top. There's more than one place to get them, I got mine from Anovos.com (about$65), however, they might currently be out of stock. The two pieces are seperate and the darker layer is somewhat an olive color.
For the pants, I just took my olive drab BDU's from Carter. In BSG, they have more material between the belt loops but I left mine off for now. All it would take is to get the same material as the pants and cut and sew some rectangular pieces, or if you bought the BDU shirt with extra pockets you can use the material from the pockets when you take them off. Other than that, you don't need to do anything to them. Here's the link to my first post on the BDU pants: http://warriorclassstudios.blogspot.com/2015/02/sg-1-bdu-pants.html
Speaking of the BDU shirt and its pockets, I got the same one for Starbuck as I did Carter. From Propper.com ($30) The crew has two pockets so I got the one with two, but if you'd like to add material to the belt loops, you can get the four pocket and take them off as the material of the shirt is the same for the pants. Couple reasons I didn't use Carter's shirt for this cosplay- we are going to be sewing on suede to the shoulders, Carter's BDU shirt has velcro sewn on, and on 'Stargate' they switched all the buttons on the shirt to the other side (for the females). On BSG, they left all the buttons on the same side, so no switching needed!
I wasn't too picky about the boots. I, again, just used the ones I use for Carter. If I ever get around to making the flight suit, then I'd try to come up with these boots they used for that outfit:
For the dog tag, you can get it many places. I got mine from Amazon for about $13.
For the utility belt and holster and all the little pouches, I got them in a bundle from Anovos, but I'm not sure if they sell them anymore. I'm sure there are other places to get them, but they're not absolutely necessary to complete the outfit.
Included is a left and right holster, the belt, and six separate pouches (one is a double). Some of them I also used for my Jill Valentine cosplay.
I got the 'Battlestar Galactica BSG 75 Screen Version Fully Embroidered Uniform' patch (3.5") from scifigeeks.com for $12. The similar one (which I think they did use on the show at least for part of it) has gold material for the gold color, but I think this one looks better. This one is going on the left shoulder of the BDU shirt.
Here's mine^
You can also get the 'Battlestar Galactica Viper Pilot' 4" patch there as well:
The two viper wing pins I got from eBay.com. I got the set that came with the two captain rank pins (the diamonds with two lines) and one viper pilot (for when I get around to the flight suit). One goes on each corner of the collar. The back is not a regular pin point, it was actually a tiny, tiny cylinder that the back screws onto, so I had to work to get it through the material, but that thing is not coming off so that's good.
Starbuck's wing tattoo doesn't show up until later in the series but I got mine at Anovos for $20. Don't think they sell them anymore at the moment but there's other places like etsy that might have it.
Pew pew pew.
The gun I got from this artist who makes replicas, however, I don't think he is still making them. :(
But you can find more replicas from these guys (as well as others)! This is a three-piece kit that I easily put together with JB Weld glue. A little paint, detail, and scuffing and they work great. While the guns from both of these places both fit in the holsters from Anovos, they do differ slightly in size and proportion. Not an issue but something to be aware of.
The other little details you can add are her sunglasses, a cigar, and the ring she wears on her thumb.
~Next post will include details on how to add the suede and patch to the shoulders as well as the nylon straps and buckles to the pockets and wrist cuffs!
Adama: 'Captain Adama and Colonel Tigh are working on the plan now and I need some serious "out-of-the-box" thinking.'
