Garb Policing: It works!

Postby NessiePop » Tue Jul 12, 2011 3:47 pm

I'm about to hit my one-year mark playing Belegarth, and I've been spear-heading a better garb movement the whole time, making garb for those who can't, and helping those who can make their own, and I realize now the fruits of my labors. This time last year, our field looked like this:

Now, we look like this, with the exception of the girl on the far left in the first pic, cause it was her first day, and the guy in the second pic with the tank top, cause I hadn't finished his tabard yet.

I'm a little proud of myself, and very proud of my field and unit-mates who have put work and dedication into getting better garb and improving the overall look of our field.

What was it that you did specifically to help your group get to where it is today? In other words, what advice would you give to new groups starting out?

I'm having flashbacks to my groups first year together... Do yourself a favor and keep a record of how you guys progressed. You'll be glad you did

Ana: The Crimson Field isn't new at all. It's been around for a while, I've just been doing my best to improve garb. However, on that front, I'd say one of the most important things is making it cost-effective. I make each person's first garb piece for cost of materials, within a certain limit. If you ask for nine tabards, i don't care how new you are, I'm charging you whatever i can. But a first tunic or tabard is totally free on labor. In the second picture, everything I'm wearing, everything the guy in the blue has, and everything the guy in the grey has, i made. That's one of the things that made it as easy as it was. I've only been sewing for 6 months, but durable is easy.

Also, eat my *, Cheeseheart. Why did the idea of Darth Solis never occur to you?

I think it is very generous of you to donate your time this way. You are truly an advocate for your group and everything does look much better. I hope your realm appreciates you and treats you to ice cream or something! Great job and keep up the great work.
