[Post edited on Dec 1, 2014 to reflect the many changes that have occurred to the mask design since the project began.]
This project started out as a simple mask build in 2012 as a suggestion from a member on FISD when I was first getting into prop making. Two and a half years later, I am now on version 5 of the mask, and am fully done the armor build!
This is a complete, 100% scratch-build by me: I sculpted the molds; I do all the vacuum forming, casting, painting, etc. What I cannot take credit for is the hard work the design artists at BioWare did to come up with this amazing character concept!
The first few pages of this thread show some of my early work on my Sith Acolyte masks versions 1-3 which were vacuum formed, (including work on a Darth Nihilus mask from KOTOR II), but the latter pages focus on actual armor pieces . All my builds are heavily documented on my website at mynocksden.com, and updates are frequently posted on my facebook page as well facebook.com/mynocksden, so I will not cross post the actual WIP notes here.
I will be submitting my costume for approval to the 501st shortly!
Complete build diary can be seen on my website http://mynocksden.com/projects/sith-acolyte/
The build is still ongoing, so stay tuned for updates!
Thanks for looking!
