Anakin Skywalker, Padawan
Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones
July 2003
When I jumped into the costuming hobby in 2002 I never thought I would attempt a main character's costume, certainly not THE main character of the Saga. Sure enough, several months later I started to put together my first Anakin costume on a whim. I thought the colors and other details of his costume were cool and really set him apart from other Jedi.
Unfortunately I wasn't as dedicated to screen-accuracy then as I am now and my costume, in retrospect, was downright awful. At the time I was happy with it though, particularly after the great reaction I received when I first wore it. This earned me the nickname "Danakin" which I have been known by ever since.

::: Boots
My first pair of Anakin boots were made by Motor Cowboy. I actually wore these for a week in my senior year of high school to help break them in. The girls loved them.
::: Lightsaber
Parksabers provided my first AOTC lightsaber. It had a detachable EL blade.
