Stunning, it looks like it's a real ceremonial display saber with such awesome details and an air of elegance about it.

I like it!
The helmet has a Star Wars Force Unleashed Terror Trooper look to it. Cool!

Good to hear.:D

Thanks for the positive comments :D

Small update on the costume:
I weathered the armour by giving it a black wash to dull down the shinyness of the silver and took a few more pics.
With robes...

Okay, I'm a little unsure which would be the worst here, necro posting or starting a new thread when this discussion is already covered so I went with the "Necro post" sin just so I could post some...

Wow all the lightsaber blades look great in these photos, nice and bright.

I really like the photo with the fountain, just a shame you didn't have your hood up (obviosuly no offence to you, but it...

Nice looking mask vctrsone, I'm glad that you think my costume has given you some inspiration.



A Pepakura version of the helmet would be fantastic, mine is nowhere near acurate (although...

I used my SWTOR Sith costume last year but I'm still tweaking it, and so I'm not having a Star Wars costume.

This years costume is a "not very original" Zombie costume, with an axe wound.

Tweaked the costume a little bit more. I almost smashed the ceiling light too while taking photos. I managed to hit the glass hard enough that it knocked the end off my lightsaber blade, amazingly...

Erm, real basic tutorial - there really isn't anything special going on here.

Start with a basic cardboard shape, I used the WOF boba fett helmet templates to get the top dome shape....

I made another mask this week seeing as the Hope trailer gave some clearer images of the mask. Still not 100% accurate, but closer. Again mainly card and paper mache coated with resin then painted.

Just as a point of interest I have spoken via email to one of the artists (his website is here http://requestdenied.com/) that worked on these trailers and he referred to the masked characters as...

Haha, I wouldn't know where to start!

Thanks for your reply. I did try a few methods to try and pull the pieces apart but in the end decided that if I couldn't get it apart then it should be sturdy enough for dueling with and most people...

Yeah the thread worked perfectly in guiding me through my first ever Luxeon conversion. My first was a Vader and went far smoother than my second attempt at a conversion (Yoda MR FX).

Good luck...
