Working on the sleeves now... tedious.

Tunics coming along, need to work on the sleeves next. I have a black turtle neck to wear under the tunics...

may be worth attempting an SWTOR Sith Officer.

dunno... the game is pretty out of date... so the resolution could prove to be a prob... What I wouldn't give for a remastered KOTOR AND KOTOR II... Still could be worse.. in the MMO everything looks like Rubber or leather... Fetish night for the Sith Empire.. Plus I based A'Sharad Hett completely off comic books where nothing is in the same from one frame to another and he was a 501st first... May be worth the challenge...

Source images are proving difficult. I dunno if KOTOR would be viable on my current rig but I may have to give it a try and just play through till I find Sith Officers.

trying to find better reference pics... may just have to hope the rig can run KOTOR and play through till I find Sith Officers.

Outer tunic and Skirts done... Inner tunic and sleeves next, still puzzling over the hood but should be too bad to work that part out.

Has anyone attempted a KOTOR Style Sith Officer? The wife was considering one to pair of with my Nihilus.. The hunt for reference material has been hit and miss but I came across some stuff... Not sure if the game would even run on my current rig.

What would a KOTOR Sith officer fall under?

I have the sounds in an MP3 file all linked together with silence in between each of Nihilus' "speaking" moments.

How does Nihilus close his tunic? I can't recall if it was left over right...

prepping the under hood... Once the tunics are down I will begin on the cape/hood... Last build used an Ushanka so that was pretty hot... this is just a cold weather liner

It has been a while... but I have returned to the 501st and will be building a new COTF Nihilus from scratch. Soft goods in in progress... For my mask I have opted for Wicked Armor once more, I will go with a blackout hood beneath the mask. For gloves I found gauntlet gloves from Mystic Leather, boots are up in the air found some on ebay, zipper is inconspicuous but in the mean time I am thinking about using my Soviet Jack boots... their pretty simple just not sure if they would be appropriate. As for the belt, found a nice one on etsy I may just pick up... My leather working skills are non-existent. (Wicked Armor mask) (Gloves)

After some inactive time I have opted to go active again, seeing as we have a new garrison I have decided to re-build my Darth Nihilus, I will be building this costume anew from scratch. I can find myself in but the link pops an error I try to link to my profile, I have been inactive for quite a while. Plus I have rebuild and submit my costume, so that may slow things down. I have recently transferred to Starkiller Garrison, where I will be submitting my costume once it is built. Guess it's a good thing I already know the ins and outs. My ID. is 9162, the search pops limited info, but trying to link to the profile is impossible and pops an error.

Never had a battery issue. And all my sabers have sounds, never had battery issues.

I feel sorry for anyone who dosen't know who this is. ;>

Monks cloth comesi n black I wonder if we could buy this in black... Do you have a link to a store selling it?

I have a few sabers being worked on at the moment, once those clear I will look into getting a Kylo Ren saber built... Least that will be one roblem tackled

Well I think we have figure a way to do the sleeves... it will be tedious but it shoudl work... going to be a damn hot costume.

We need imgaes of that mid coat... And we need to figure the sleaves out I wonder how they achieved that look.

Monks cloth might work... It is a similar weave... Difficult it keep it from fraying though...

we'll need better images of his pants... ; / The coloring is hard to discern from this image, I've been told he is in all black but the pics I have the lighting washes it out so they appear to be brown... Guess it's possible. The boots appear to be simple enough, but there looks to be straps around them... A few ideas for the outer coat... These look similar, they are a basket weave but they will be expensive. https://www.lesouk.co/material/black-hemp-canvas-basket-weave-3415 http://www.fabricguru.com/p-fabricut/woven-upholstery-fabric-pewter-black

I have some pics of his robe, wish we could get a view of his under cloths, but for now this will have to do... SL detachment seems to be keeping him at arms length because he isn't "Darth Ren". Any input is more then welcome... Figuring this fabric out will be the first step. Found this as well, maybe be a primising lead. https://www.lesouk.co/envirotextiles#collection

Figuring out the fabric could be tough... It looks similar to Monks cloth.. And I've heard the rumors it was specificaly made for the move, according to the plaque it a "Basket weave" https://scontent-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10347501_10153336367970649_6544615244918187277_n.jpg?oh=c3c46ce418e0c10337b91e78829fc5be&oe=55DC9960 https://scontent-lga.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtp1/v/t1.0-9/11150323_10153336373410649_2419146960149866673_n.jpg?oh=743dcb61be9563f316789d9104a81cfe&oe=55DCFE3D

Not sure where Kylo will belong, I've been told he is just an admirer of the Sith so he may not be a true Sith Lord, so for now I'll stick to the EU boards. So saw some pics of Kylo Ren... And I think he will have be one of my costumes... Heard the rumors about the fabric but I was wondering if anyone had thoughts on what might be possible to use... Other thing is what is he wearing obviously he has an outer robe going on but what is he wearing under it, seem some images that show what appear to be pants... I'm eager to build this costume but I am inclined to follow someone else's footsteps.
