Sister, welcome aboard, then!
I am going to try to make a good version of the vest, but if that fails, I would be more than happy to seek other alternatives.
Shepler's...I'll add that to my list of places to check out...thank you for that!
ArtCat, thank you for those links! Now we need to start a sweat shop somewhere....

eh knitting patches won't take too horribly long, even "full shirts" would not be too horrid, most folks would be wearing coats over it so really only fronts would have to be made :)
As far as uniformity, the browncoats seem to be a real hodge podge, I think as long as we all have oh say the browncoat patch on our shoulder and the predominantly brown coloring theme I think we will be good :)
I cannot wait to get the materials and tackle this knitting project!

Whee! FFG, ready and able! Um...after the holidays, that is! 
ArtCat, my vision has the soldiers at least a little "uniform"...at least close in pants and shirts, but with similar vests and overcoats and weapons. As the war progressed, they seem to have become very hodge-podge...I was aiming for a relatively new 'brigade'...haven't really had their edges dulled to far yet. Although, if the general concensus ends up being different, I have no problems with that, either! Just having a contingent of Independent soldiers marching will fill my heart with joy!

Ebay has a platoon load of H&K G36s paintball guns relatively cheap, even sets of 2 for "Independent" Browncoat couple. They don't look exactly like the one Zoe carries but close.

ok, so it was probably my fault.
Sorry Chris! but there are plenty of others to choose.
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

You're talking about the Gods costume, right. I'm in, I already have a costume made up from another convention.
