Witch King (Lord of the Rings) build.

[fender90]

Hey there! I just wanted to share with you something I am building for the Venice Carnival this year

So last year I was a Sith Lord with this robe (lightsaber battles in the middle of the main plaza were awesome)

But this year I wanted to do something different, so why not use the robe I already have? So I started making a Witch King helmet on cardboard today. This is the "skeleton", I need to color and refine it.

It's just a noob build, but if anyone is interested I will post how I did it

Will add more pics as I carry on making it!

I'd certainly be interested in seeing the progression of this build
I always love viewing LotR costume builds for the sheer detail and effort that needs to go into them.
Best of luck, you're off to a great start!

I definitely want to see this. Something new I haven't seen before.

You mean actual body height? No way, I'm just gonna be a Witch King when he was 12

Now I painted it, wondering if I should "fix it up" with a second hand of paint or leave the newspapers like this to have a battle-worn effect.

hey there, I have my own helm I've done too!

id have his spike out and up to be truer to the witch king, but great job, especially with the time invested/techniques
