Hi from QC Canada!

Hi everyone!

 

Just got a almost complete Darth Nihilus costume from a local 501st member.

 

I'm still new to the whole 501st adventure and I aim to get approved!

 

Of course the costume needs some work and I still need some parts, like boots ans gloves, to make it complete.

 

ATM I'm pretty happy with this build and the fit is pretty spot on.

 

Here's a preview:

(any constructive criticism or suggestions?)

Welcome!

 

Can't see the top of the tunic very well, but you'll want to make sure you have the double tunic look. You can add a false double layer to the existing one if it isn't there and save yourself wearing two tunics.

Yes I do have a inner and outer tunic, I will open up the outer tunic to get the double tunic look.

I need to search the forum for a better way to have the plastic hood sit on my head without it sliding back with the weight of the cape/hood on it, same thing with the cape/hood.
Maybe with velcro on the shoulders of the outer tunic and the inside of the cape...

What needs to be done:
- attach the hood to the black mask
- better position the knot
- fix the cape weight issue
- buy boots
- buy gloves
- check the mask if it is approvable
