Yeah, that shirt looks too new. Start wearing it now and break it in!

This sounds like a joke, but legitimately it's way too clean. Maybe not roll in mud, but some kind of filth at least needs to be mimicked.

I somehow found a page on Instagram that's been posting their patterns for different NCR trooper costume pieces.

They made a full leather chest piece, and a pocketed bandolier.

Edit: Here's a post with pictures of people who used the page's patterns to make their own costumes. And they look really good imo.

If you go to an expo or gathering it would be amazing to start every conversation with the "patrolling the Mojave" line. Then just get into a regular conversation.

Or just have a speaker attached that just plays the sound clip at random intervals.

You thought I wouldn't do that? It's an NCR Trooper Cosplayer's duty to constantly say "Patrolling the Mojave almost makes me wish for a nuclear winter" and "When I took this assignment I was hoping there'd be more gambling"

Oh I just noticed that even your display name is NCR Trooper. You're absolutely all in, flaunt it!

Which type of helmet are you going for? Face wrap armor I guess would be logical in a semi-desert/desert environment.

WAY too hot for a face wrap armor lmao, the convention near me is happening in the summer. I just ordered a pith helmet from amazon
