  1. Also, Blue Knights posted a glimpse of their uni on Instagram. I'm on mobile so I can't post it, but basically it's the same as last year's but the right arm is sparkly and the sleeve goes up the the base of the fingers and stops. No glove on the right hand
  2. Blue Stars are looking great! Definitely getting some Casades vibes. And I'm not a fan of the Phantom uniform. Did they get rid of the traditional sash? Or is it just black and I can't see it? I feel a different colored sash would better differentiate between the white and black.
  3. I'm a 14 year old drum corps fan from Georgia. I'd love to do drum corps, but as I'm sure all of you know is extremely expensive. However, I am determined to work for it. I've been told I'm artistically talented, and my family encouraged me to try and make stuff and sell it. I decided to sell drum corps items to try and get help from this great community, along with other things such as basic housework to save up. My Band Director also told me about GoFundMe (but just thinking about it makes me feel guilty about taking other people's money). But I downloaded Etsy, and saw all of the other extremely talented sellers, which diminished my hope instantly. I contacted fellow Georgian DCIPaintings through Etsy, and asked for tips. From there she showed me an article she did on a website about this. However, I still have questions: How do I contact Drum Corps about wanting to merchandize their uniforms (how I'm merchandizing them, I'd like to keep to myself so nobody steals the idea)? Do I just email them? And what if they request a percentage of my product? How do I get the money to them? Am I too young to even sell stuff? Are there other ways to make money? Help would be amazing. (Sorry for the monologue)
  4. If the picture was simply black and white, the Aussie would still be white. Take any photo of a black and white object, apply a black and white filter or whatever, and the colors are still the same. The only possible explanation for the Aussies being white but appearing black are 1) the photo is in negative (which it definitely isn't), or 2) the corps selected the Aussie and shifted the color from white to black separately from the rest of the photo to throw off people (like me)...Or they're having an Aussie color change
  5. Is the corps using black Aussies now? Or is that the DM? I don't think it's the DM because the gloves are black and the DM usually has white gloves and white gauntlets.
  6. I honestly thought that the '89 unis weren't as cool-looking as the 2003-'05 unis. I know that they were pretty much the same thing, but the 2003 uniform hit home with me a bit more. They ditched the ostrich plume, and made the bottom of the torso piece a sort of a "w" shape. '89: 2003-'05
  7. I haven't seen anyone bring up the Cadets' new uniforms. If you haven't seen them... As with most uniforms nowadays, the corps is going to be doing a show theme-related uniform from now on (I'm guessing this. It'd be a bit weird for the Cadets to go back to Maroon and Gold after this). But they're keeping the black uniforms now. The plume now has black and white feathers (an Oreo plume), there is a sort of woods-themed background for the sash/baldric, and the traditional cumberbund tail-thing is being replaced with another woods/show-theme design. Honestly, I'm not a fan of the uniforms. When I heard the Cadets might depart from their usual uniforms, I was super excited. I wanted them to look like the one on the right: But they decided to go with these new ones. I guess the days of a corps keeping a uniform for more than1-2 years are over.
  8. Considering it's been over half a decade since the last post, I thought I'd jump in.
