    Mirror Spock's ascot

    Probably the most complicated and extensive custom job you'll see today.




    I'd like to open up that collar and fold open the corners, as seen in the original photos, but that would require hemming....

      He looks better now. I just watched the episode again and realized the figure was missing the scarf/ascot. What did you use?

          It is a subtle difference, but I think it adds something. Nice job.

            Thanks!
            It's from a little pack of fabric strips found on a rack next to the thread display at Walmart.

              Nicely done, even the slightest touch ups can make a difference.

              I'm curious to know how Mirror Spock would look with a flocked beard?

                When I looked closely at the head, I was surprised that the beard is just paint, rather than having been sculpted like on the Klingon. The paint is successful at creating the illusion, and they get to do their favorite thing: reuse a mold.

                      I'm surprised no one has made accurate Mirror knifes with a 3D printer yet. I would love to get them for my figs.
