Hey all. I have been rocking an approved COTF Nihilus for at least a couple years. I love it, but I wanted to try out the old school version. Went with the Wicked Armor version with a modded mask (the one they offer has too big of circles on the details compared to the cover art from KOTO II. I used foam cut to shape for the breast plate. As much as it pains me not to use my fancy Nihilus saber, went with a plain KOTOR hilt. Not wild about the breast plate-looks kind of like a pot belly- but it is a lot cooler than COTF so should work fir warmer weather, which was kind of the idea. Also got a bit cheeky with the first mask off image.  Thoughts?

Bro! Looks great! I'm Gomcse from the YouTube comments! Loved your recent review of the sound fonts. Nihilus just rocks...

 

By the way, your gloves look fantastic. Could you share the source and type?

Thanks. I just got word that I got approved. 4th costume in the legion, 3rd in TFE. The gloves came from Wicked Armor. They have them on their site. They have a nice profile, but that is probably the first part of this I will upgrade, followed by the Obi.

Oh, ok. They look really good though.

My Wicked Armor COTF Nihilus was approved in a day. I was really impressed.

Their construction and fabrics are very high quality. More importantly, they were willing to make small customizations to meet the CRL, like the 2 ovals on top of the mask (vs the 3 he normally casts), which meant I didn't have to "fix" anything.

It seems they (WA) are consistently producing high quality, as yours looks fabulous.

Can a Nihilus COTF and Nihilus KOTOR troop together? LOL. If so, we'll have to do that sometime...or meet up at a convention so I can by you a soda.
