Nate & Heather as Jacen Solo & Tenel Ka Djo from the Star Wars: Young Jedi Knig
Nate & Heather as Jacen Solo & Tenel Ka Djo from the Star Wars: Young Jedi Knights seriesWe originally made these a long while ago (Heather’s first version of YJK Tenel Ka was made a bit before her and Nate even met) and have worn and modified them multiple times since. These are two of our favorites characters and we have so much fun in Jacen & Tenel Ka costumes – especially these since the YJK books are close to our hearts.Nate’s Jacen was originally made worn at Balticon 2010 (the middle photo in the second row is from that con) and then again at both Katsucon & Dragon*Con in 2012 (plus a number of out of con shoots and such since then). The version of YJK Tenel Ka seen here was first made and worn at Dragon*Con 2012 (with Jesse & Jean as Teneniel Djo & Ta’a Chume! <3333) and then fixed up (added edging to some of the shoulder armor, remade the scales for parts of the shoulderpiece that were originally made from fabric out of Wonderflex and added lacing to the front of the outer piece of shoulder armor) for an outdoor shoot in 2014, which is where the last photo is from.This is one of the only Tenel Ka costumes Heather can have her left arm out for and that’s only when she doesn’t have the lightsaber. She’s slipped a couple times in photos with the lightsaber (let’s pretend it’s the first/rushed one, hehehe), but has gotten so used to posing without showing her left arm that she does it in non-Tenel Ka costumes now sometimes as well.
