First part of costume

[karohemd]

Found a spiffy waistcoat at Oxfam for a fiver. It might be a bit to colourful for a Tremere (sort of dark cyan green with golden broquatish pattern on front) but the rest of the costume is going to be black.
Now I need a black shirt, some sort of cravat type thing, ideally matching the waistcoat and, of course, a cane.

The best place for canes is Jones & Son on New Oxford street...where I got mine from, and their selection is ace.

What are their prices like?
And where's the shop roughly? New Oxford st. is a bit crowded with shops...

Just before forboidden planet - and they aren't too unreasonable. My skull headed cane was about £50.

Bright is good, not all Tremere can be dull.... (Can they, I don't know).... Oh, and your grinning picture is really scaring me... *G*

It's not bright, the front is dark green with a pattern and the back is lighter in colour and shiny.
However, it is bright by Tremere standards. Also, he's going to be a lowly Apprentice so no bright colours allowed ;o)

And the grinning pic is another self portrait. ;o)

Argh! I open my mailbox and there's you.... grinning! Not something you really want to wake up to, sorry but.... it's true! (yes, it is 4:25, and yes, I did just say woken up). Anyway, that's what I meant.... I didn't mean neon colours or something.:) Anyway, I thought Apprentices were meant to wear black and leather? *hides my character away as a disgrace*

Nothing about leather, afaik...

Oh, why am I appearing in your mailbox?
