The coat, which you can take off...
« on: September 24, 2005, 07:30:04 PM »
Hy all, :)


the coat topic employs me already some time :roll:  

Recently I had the idea to create a coat, which you can take off from the figure

Good Idea  :roll:  

simply sew a small Playmocoat   :shock:

As material I (no, no, not me but my wife  ) used felt. The material is too thick... in the next pictures you can see the first attempt for such a coat....

Next attempts will follow...

A VERY interesting project, Andy ... :shock:

I wonder if anyone else has tried to do this?

We will all be watching your progress ...  

All the best and good luck,

Hi Andy - amazing, and original, idea!

I wonder... have you considered making a coat in plastic or resin, similar to the vests and jackets that Playmobil has that fit over top of the torso, with holes for the arms. I imagine you could make one like that, but only longer... Just an idea.

I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Very interesting.

When using real material it always seems too thick.

I'm looking forward to you (your wife's) next effort.
