well finally its done. and i love it. i got more attention at the opening of the starwarsstore then the 501st did there. man i was so busy taking pictures with kids that i didjnt have time to get any pictures of my own. but since i wasnt with the 501st and wasnt getting paid to be there (i was there on my own) the owner gave me a free lego starwars kit of a swoop bike from ROTJ thats was nice of him.

Costume Specs.

Black Sith Cloak from Speedy stiches (awsome)
Tunic made by my moms friend Connie: Red stiching and Red velvet cuffs
Black Khakis
dress shoes
cheezy fake boot covers
Red/Black phantom black out mask
Cannibal face shield
DV Ultrafx saber
and last but not least: My Sith Yhuuzan Vong belt from todd at darkside customs. awsome work... allthough it needs some tune ups. notice the main yuuzhan vong glyph in the center......

well heres the pics guys (in my dads office on the way to the grand opening):

The only thing that really impressed me was the cloak.:cool:

The mask and the belt looked like something off of an old pirate movie...

Granted, it is very cool! I'm just being honest.

I was Thinking to make the mask more "StarWarsish" You could maybe add 1-2 redd accent LED's to mimic the "life support" function of it.

just a thought.

Just in case you didn't know, DJ, the 501st NEVER gets "paid" to make appearances....they do it for FREE everytime. It's the only way they and the Rebel Legion are allowed to exist by Lucasfilm.

Yep, what Jay-gon says is true. People don't seem to understand that we do this for free.

However, if someone insists on trying to pay one of the groups, we can suggest that they make a donation to their favorite Charity, or one that the RL or 501st sponsors, in the group's name.

We are allowed to accept small gifts, such as comic books or an action figure or something, as long as it's not extravagant, and given freely by the people we are helping to promote. We can't expect or ask for such things ourselves.

I have received comic books, miniatures, stickers, money off coupons for their stores, been fed at the Event, things like that before, because people wanted to do something to show their appreciation.

oh yeah i know that now. the starwars store DONATED to dornbechers and thats why the 501st came out. i missunderstood the owner guy. btw. i showed the owner my reconversion job on my obi wan saber and he wants me to do some conversions for him and make him some MHS hilts. so im kinda syched about that... in fact im calling him now.

The mask looks great, allthough you should put some leds in as suggested.

(hurry up with you broadsaber, it would look great with this costume)
