Who Ordered the Confed Naval Uniform? (July 1, 2014)

[ChrisReid]

SMPDesigns has added an interesting specimen to their elaborate costume portfolio. They make suits for movies, but they seem to specialize in one-off and cosplay reproductions. Their new creation is a naval outfit in the style of the Wing Commander Movie, and it's even pictured with a Freddie Prinze-esque Blair model. It's an interesting take on the design. Tiger Claw shoulder patches are seen on uniform undershirts throughout the actual film, but a traditional Confed star is accurately portrayed on the jacket here. The insignia on the hat are also quite faithfully reproduced. However, everything is in black and gray here in contrast to the blues that we see on screen and in most games. It appears that whomever made this got their hands on some of the authentic surplus costumes (or closely studied images) in order to create a very close replica.
