Hello everybody,
After months of planning, I decided to start with my own build.
In 2009, when I was 14, I made my first Darth Vader costume, it wasn't that special but for the 14 year old kid it was awesome. Here it is...
Six years have passed by and I decided to give it another shot. My main goal is to make it ready for The Force Awakens premiere in December.
I will do everything myself, including the helmet (mostly because my budget and also as a challenge). It won't be 100% screen accurate ( the third one will be probably :lol ), but I'll do my best. It will be some kind of the Original trilogy hybrid.
Two days ago I started with the mask. I'm working with water-based clay. When it dries I'll apply bondo, sand it, and then make a silicone mold.
P.S. You guys here are awesome, I've learnt sooo much from you, and also got my inspiration for this project. So I would much appreciate your thoughts
