Costumes are never finished, just tweaked lol Looks good except for what Nina said. Keep up the work
-
Ok let me chime in for a second.
WMA out of the box isn't approvable. You need two tunics and his only comes with one, also he doesn't include a belt. I have one and I had to get those before I could get mine approved.
Belt can be made easy ( would do it but cheaper and easier for me to have someone do it here for me)
Gloves I have regular gaunlets for mine that they were great. (off ebay)
Boots im using old officer boots, top are raggid but no one sees them.
-
Are you doing the belt same as pictured above??
-
How it works its a voice changer. You can tweak it to make your voice sound totally different. I just ordered cables and stuff to play with it more but I just use it for the clone loop right. It might be a hard time to tweak it that much to sound like nihilus. But ill let you know after the first of the year.

No his app only has limited features but i just looked and it does have jawa and tusken added. No sith lords and not sure if hes going to. Its a cool app as i have played with it for my clone but i have a few different costumes i can use it with
-
Just keep in mind WA does not come with two tunics only comes with one and does not come with belt, gloves, boots or balaclava.

Oh, and what lightsaber did you use?
I have a generic one from a guy in Taiwan and its super bright but no where near the right one. You can find people who can make an exact replica but you will pay a ton for it. Most gml's or garrisons wont mind if you don't have the exact right one since its not required to get approved. If you want to get 100% accurate then buy all means have at it.
As far as fabric mines like duck cloth but I cant remember the exact name.

Which nihilus are you going to go with?? Check the CRL because the COTF Nihilus needs to have two tunics. MWA one only comes with one. He will make a second one with no issue but of course you have to pay for it. Its the one I have and out of the box needed no tweaking just the belt, boots, gloves and balaclava.
I do suggest if you go with MWA by a black out face ( the spandex type), The plastic piece he sells is ok to see out of but sometimes if can be a pain and the hole need to be opened up a bit more for breathing.
Let me/us know if you have any questions.

You know when I originally saw these guys in the trailer I thought they would be all baddies. But now that I know the story I think that these guys would be best submitted to the rebel legion
I look forward to seeing your progress!
I found Arcann's mask on Thingyverse so im gonna get that printed and go from there. Erika is gonna hook me up with a bunch of reference pics and ill start from there
-
So not sure if this is even the right forum but hey lol. Knights of the fallen empire brothers Thexan and Arcann, are they flagship or are they RL??
After I build this secret costume I want to do something never seen before and leaning toward one of them but not sure since I cant find them anywhere in 501st or RL.
-
If you start building these id be interested. I can fix a Harley all day but doing something like this scares me.
-
Hell yes. looks awesome man.

Welcome to the best detachment !!!
-
I have used black safty pins. The Velcro for my center knot keeps coming undone so i don't trust it. Only down side someone has to help me.
-
Is there anyway you can put them in water, let me soak really good and leather becomes stretchy. Not sure if it would go that big but might be an option
-
Only way I got mine approved by what was on the main site. If you get approved with these awesome. Im just stating what happened to me.
-
Pouches wont work (sorry) they need to have 4 rivets on the outside and close on the bottom. I got declined on mine for my boxes so I had to have them made exactly like the picture.
Boots look good but WAY to clean lol
Lenses on mine I put on the base of the stalk (close to you face) it might be easier to see that way, Mine fogged up bad until I put the fans in.
Bucket looks good.
If too me two years to build mine (big move to Thailand helped lol) so if you need pointers or anything please message me.
-
Gloves def wrong should be smooth.
Cape need to drape on back( I pin mine to my shoulders so it wont go in front )
Cape should "nearly" touch the floor so it does look a bit short, but if you put it behind your shoulders it might help some.
-
Welcome to the forums first off
Second imagine a sheet attached to your forehead, putting a knot by your throat and the rest touching the floor. That's pretty much how the cape works in the easiest way to describe it. If you want let me know I can get you pics of mine

Supe solv is the best thing ever.
Prosaide is what I use to do fx make up all the time. It sticks like super glue with out killing your skin. I had a reaction to liquid latex with I did a head cast but I can wear foam latex no problem.
Theres another glue that's super strong called Telesis. I use it on my chin in my Clown. Only way it doesn't peal off after time.
Only thing about silicone is when you take it off you need to let it dry completely (sweat) before you do anything with it. Im not sure about how many times you can reuse it, but I know people use silicon masks with no glue and they reuse over and over.

Shave your head and instant bald cap lol
But serious if you know a make up artist they can make you a skull cap with the horns built in, Then just have to blend to your face. Rather expensive but it works.
Our maul here has a latex bald cap that's painted with the horns attached. Doesn't look perfect but he wont shave his head. It works for him.

I just did some research, there saying to use heat on the outside and use a towel or something on the inside to push it out to the desired width. They say use a hair dryer for best results but avoid heat gun because it might melt the boot.
Hope it helps
