Re: Mini Darth Vader costume completed: last page pics
That warms my heart! :$
My main goal-was to get something to resemble Vader- and look better than the Rubies (at least the kids deluxe thing minimum).
I toyed in my head about a leather or pleather under suit.... but just don't think I want to go down that path for something he'll surely outgrown quick. At least these other parts can be used for a little while with just some bigger boots and gloves when he outgrowns them. Even if the cape is a bit shorter.
With the 2 day Con- boys will be "good guys" on Friday. Nick will be in Solo again, so needed to repaint his room alarm blaster as it was turning orange again.
Check!
Decided to take some left over molded up Maul parts I had laying around and throw together a quick "padawan" saber for Jack's jedi costume.
getting a coat of paint:
Not the cleanest of casts (see airbubbles)..... but, whaterver. probably why I had these peices still laying around. quick n dirty saber. Will add a few buttons and some green LED's I have left over.
It's a sickness.... I can't leave my garage and quit building..:lol
IMO this mini vader suit rivals some of the full size stuff out there... and as far as I am concerned it completely dominates the Rubies suit.
