Khal Drogo
Hrakkar:
Now that is truly first-rate awesome!
I really like it when people go to the trouble (and it is often a considerable amount of trouble) to make a truly authentic and functional costume. Any kudos you got for that costume were very well deserved!
Kade:
That does look awesome...i love it.

And Kade, where did you get those awesome lion medallions?

Drawer pulls from Menards. I cut off the ring and did some painting with gold leaf.

Thanks a bunch!! I'm really happy with most of it!!
They looks pretty easily done, though I may have to purchase more leather as the scraps i do have are thicker and would be better suited for belts. Additionally I'm not sure how I'd figure out how to fit it to your hands ... Shoot me an email (zombat at gmail) if you're serious and we can talk more. :)

Thanks!! And same. I figured that if I was to try the costume I'd have to go all the way with it. The few dothraki phrases I knew helped out a lot too, as far as embodying the character. When people said garbled stuff to me i'd respond with 'ahna acharak vos ale" and a few people recognized that I wasn't jabbering back with nonsense. :) I ran into a few Na'vi characters and they didn't understand it when I asked them if they also spoke Na'vi, and were real na'vi. Nope.

Thanks, and good idea with the medallions, resourceful!! I like it!
Here are some more photos!! Once I re-do everything and when a Con comes around I'll be getting a spray tan and getting some more professional photos taken, hopefully on horseback! Until then, these are the best:
Additionally, if I might shamelessly self-promote, I made a reddit post and I'm lookin for some support on getting others to see it. If you guys like my costume please vote it up!

Did you mean {b]anha[/b] instead of ahna?

Keftxo! ke tsun fo pivlltxe lì'fyat leNa'vi ;) What is this world coming to?
I was going to do Na'vi Monday, but chose (wisely) in the end not to. Most people at work wore a very simple mask or a hair piece, if they wore anything at all (good eats made up for the poor costumes, though). I ended up wearing a cap that made my head look like the top of a lion's head.
