First thing I noticed is that the studs for the belt have to be black.  Looks like a good start though.

If , poorly commanded , I ordered the black . But will paint with metallic paint to see how they are . Coming soon will post the cloth parts I just need the obi and the hood.

 

Edit: 

Update

I might take about 3-4 centimeters off the length of the tunic, it is hanging lower on your thigh than I have seen on others.  Can not wait to see your weathering.

It is that I have not cut yet and have to prevent splitting . I only need a helmet to the shape and the mask that I have commissioned . Thank you!

Coming along nicely.  What plans do you have for the crown?  You also need to attach the knot on the cowl higher up, it should be above the V shape of the tunics crossing.  It is hard to tell in these pics, but are the sleeves quilted properly?

 

Not a CRL requirement, but I'd shorten the skirt a little bit.  That is so you don't step on it and trip yourself.

Looking good so far! 

You will need to add the quilting to the sleeves as per the CRL guidelines. You will also want to sew in the "tails" on the knot on the hood, as they are not supposed to stick out. 

 

Great work so far! I had to get silver studs for my belt when I made my Nihilus as that was all they sold at the time. I just painted mine with black nail polish and they look great. 

Cheers,

Nef

Thank you for the tips!

The knot was tested and when you already have the helmet for how it will cut and sew to leave it always fixed at the correct height .

The skirt is still tear and make the wathering so why is a little longer .

And I think the sleeves is light, but are padded.
