I've been working on a JID size outfit for one of my guys, so I can finally take those Jurassic Park photos with the two kids that were made decades ago. I had made the dinosaur eggs back in March, but then all my projects came to a screaming halt. I figured it was time to get back to that project, so had to make an outfit like Dr. Grant wears in the film.
One of the things I find most challenging to make, is contemporary clothes for guys, and as though that wasn't hard enough, his pants had belt loops. Like how in the world do I make such super tiny, narrow belt loops? On real people's pants, the ends of the belt loops are folded under and then sewn on, but that would be way too bulky on such a small scale. So I figured out a way to make tiny folded fabric strips, and have the ends inserted into the top and bottom of the waistband.....

Not bad. I was quite pleased with the results.
The shirt, although not the exact same colour of blue, was almost done as well. It just needed the snaps. And the outfit needed a red bandana to tie around his neck....

Owen was only too happy to model the outfit for me...
Little does he realize that I will only need his body for Dr. Grant. His head is way too big, so I'll be using Rex's smaller head instead....

Now I need to make the clothes all wet and dirty, like he's spent the night in the mud and rain.
I don't want the outfit to stay all dirty, so don't want to use paint. I want to use something that will wash out - like real dirt. And then I need to find, or make, a suitable setting for photos. Something suggesting a tropical jungle. That will be the biggest challenge of all.....
