Tusken Raider Costume Questions

I plan on making a Tusken Raider costume and I was just wondering what material most people use for the inner robe, outer robe and bandages and how much you would need? Also I heard that tea dying is the best way to get a 'weathered kind of look'. Does anyone have any tips on that or any other suggestions for weathering? i have sewing experience but I do not own a sewing machine, would there be a sewing machine for around $200 or less just for beginners? Sorry about all the questions haha.

I'm thinking of doing the helmet as a clay base and then paper mache over it to create the face mask. Is this a good idea or would it be easier/cheaper to buy a kit?

I started building a rifle last weekend (bare in mind I am only 14). I still have to add the details for the stock of the rifle. Also the trigger guard and maybe some more weathering for the stock. Please tell me what you think of it, and if I need to change anything.
