It does seem more logical to have bracers when it comes to a wearable costume. The artist's interpretation in the comics doesn't always speak for
actual functionality.

That's a good point. So I guess it could really go either way.

Well I have a friend in town that does some leather work and she and I are going to make the bracers and then I am going to paint them to match the fabric on
the suit.

You should totally use white reflective tape for the emblem. Me and Allen talked about that on the phone the other day, with my Lantern, and I know he did it
with his.
The EL is probably gonna be a no-go on the account of dimness in the sheet. Just too much trouble for it to not even be noticeable. |

I think it's just like that in that particular picture. All the others I've seen of him have a glowing emblem that seems to be the insignia of the
Ion entity that he's in possession of. The same when Kyle was Ion.
But yeah. I dunno who sketched that profile shot you have, but they omitted the Ion glow.
Either way you go, I'm sure it'll look cool.

I'll be at Dragon*Con this year and would like to join you guys in the parade. What time are you doing the shoot? I have the Marvel vs DC that afternoon,
but as Spidey. Also Shane, is it possible to get a ring upgrade from you by Dragon*Con?

Last year we did the shoot the immediately following the parade, so I'm guessing we'll be doing the same thing this year. That way we'll have
everyone already in sparked up in their Lantern gear.
I know Thursday night, Shane and I are going to get together and scout for a spot, as last year it was totally improved, and we just got lucky in fidning an empty area. |

T, I can definitely hook you up with a ring for DC.
And yes, we'll do the photo shoot right after the parade and a brief cool-down.  Still trying to line up a good photographer.

Worst comes to worst, we've got plenty of friends who can just snap shots for us. I don't know if Kyle will be attending D-Con or not. But if he is,
and he's not fully back in action by then, he can be our go-to guy for pics. Worst comes to worst we know plenty of people. Somebody will be on hand to
take snapshots.

By the way, I've got a friend who will be joining us in the parade. She's currently making an Iolande suit.

Yeah, I'm hoping that the group this year surpasses what we had last, which was an excellent turnout, btw.
