Looks great...what parts do you use?
Very nice! Looks really good. Care to share any details on pieces?
The individual components of the costume are impressive enough, but your proportions in the costume are spot-on! How tall are you?
First, I would like to thank you all for kind comments. I really appreciate it. They made my day.
The parts...basically there is a quite long list of parts. Then there are some bad parts that had to be exchanged and finally some parts were modified... it took about three years... ;-)
So to cut a long story short: helmet is a darth quasimodo v2 by bookface/ csmaclaren, matching armor by bookface/ csmaclaren, leathersuit, gloves and buckle by fenixprops, cape (customized opening, satin-lining and length done in addition) and robe (customized pleats and mesh at the back are done by me) by customprops, codpiece and belt by artisanprops, chestbox (custommade rods lathed from aluminum, double-lights and programming the world's-one-and-only-screenaccurate algorithm by me) and beltbox by darkside, shins by portumac, saberhilt (custommade emitter and weathering done by me) by MR, saberhook and hilt-wires by wannawanga, leatherboots by embossyboots.

When reading your nice post, in my imagination I hear Vader saying "I have you now!".Amazing! Your pics and back story are inspiring me to take the leap and do something similar. I started down the armor path when Anovos launched the TK Stormtrooper, and I couldn't resist the very lower pre-order price way back then. However, like you, I am 6'7" and the TK is just not working out. I know there are taller troopers out there but it just looks off. So with that in mind I have been toying with the idea of taking on a Vader project instead. So this post is inspiring me to do it! Sorry wallet
