Malgus help


Recommended Posts

good day, I have the concern of working a malgus, I work with 3d files or pepakura, I would like to  know where to download a file to work it, or do you think it is better to do it freehand? Diagrams or visual aid will also be welcome.

I have reviewed videos on YouTube and the galleries in the forum, but I still have doubts, mainly I would like to see under the cove as is the full armor

Greeting´s MichMx,      Darth Malgus Armor.

There is standard Props made bye Wicked Armor send a mail to Rob Rodgers, https://wickedarmor.com/

Also a Builder called Plaigeous from Ireland is most former known as the Cos Play Actor for Lucas Ltd, in the Video game shooting´s, Old Republic! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCguDbIcGXrM1n7wWwzVotEw

 

Direct 3D schematics is a hard one to find but i combined mine in a run which i bought 2nd hand, then made my own templates peace bye peace and combined them to a Football Shoulder Pad to give it a total surround complete armor look.

the front was made bye Wicked Armor 5 years ago. Im not sure if Rob is remaking the product at the moment, there was a stop production stage they did last year, but its best to drop him a mail to see what is available....i know he still sales parts, not sure about the complete package.

 

about making a complete upper armor chest peace , front and back i would not advise due to the comfort and durability from heat and sweat, your going to have a hard time getting in and out, the more modification on heavy duty props the harder and more suffering you will go threw...the other factor is you need to make the material as flexible as possible for bending reasons . One stumble and that´s all she wrote like a T.K. uniform bang broke and your starting from square one.

 

The mid stomach section i re-modified with original real Leather Belt straps so you can bend and lean in, the older prop was a vinyl synthetic strips and it became like Rice Krispy´s, snap crackle and pop! its broke, not once but many times, so please do not fall into that pitfall prop trap.

 

with complete assembly for original prop and perfection your looking into a budget between 5-6 K at least.

Its also depends which Darth Malgus your going to do? 1 Veradun without the Facial Scars, 2. Malgus Sacking of Alderan, 3. Deception and destruction of Coruscant. 

All 3 characters have different facial expressions and battle scars. 

My Darth Malgus is the last one in the Deceived novel. But I can do a Veradun as the Apprentice

 

Darth Malgus is constantly becoming more Cyborg looking as well just Google him on photos and you will find many versions popping up.

However you still need to follow the standard C.R.L. guideline rules if you wish to become an official member of TFE or 501st depending what Squadron your looking into.

If it something that you want to do on your own then trial and error is your acomplishments...just beware you do not go to overboard and find out that all the work becomes not accepted and that happens often.

 

There are 2 Darth Malgus members that have the original prop costume, that is Dominic Repper from Tampa Garrison and myself we both have the original prop C.R.L Costume...

There are 2 other members from Texas and Virginia that have Malgus but a new edition in prop manufacture. Also there is the Under suite Darth Vader wear, Original Black or the Dark Grey Mesh....

If you need any assistance on further information just reply and I will gladly help.

On Video footage on how to make a complete Chest Armor send me your mail and I can forward the data info.

Hope this helps in a way.
