Actually, I think people will be a little bit more patient and kind if they realize that you are younger, and new to this process. Personally, I love your passion for this project. At the same time, you are going to need to ask a ton of questions, and gather a lot of information before you can realize your hope and dream of owning a helmet like this. The honest truth is, everyone's going to tell you that it isn't very realistic to pull off something this complicated if you are younger and inexperienced with complex prop making. As an adult, it took me about 10 years to put together a movie accurate Darth Vader costume. I first started out with a homemade costume, and then slowly added more accurate Parts over the years. You need to understand, that it may take years and years before you finally realize what you are hoping and dreaming for. Don't let that ever frustrate you, don't let anything hold you back.
There is no age for that.You can write and you love Vader...thats all you need!
Only wearing a vadersuit could be a little bit too big at the moment.

Might I make a suggestion? I don't know a lot about a Vader reveal, or what exactly is involved to make one, but I know that having some basic skills in the bag would certainly help you get started. As I understand, there is a lot of research involved for this project, especially for how accurate you want to make it. So...whilst doing your research etc...why not work on a project in the mean time, to help you understand some of the basic and I guess, fundamental things you're gonna need to complete the long term project of the Vader reveal.
I too like jumping in at the deep end when learning new things. My first prop making project was a Boba Fett helmet scratch build. During this time, I realised that I actually really enjoy it, and most of the techniques I learned making that, have transferred over to projects I work on now. If I made my Boba helmet now, knowing what I now know, It would be a lot different I feel. There are things I would do differently for sure, which I wouldn't have known had I not learned some of those basic, but extremely useful skills the first time round.
So TLDR: You should learn some of the basic tools and techniques you will need to complete the long term project of the Vader reveal. Time is on your side massively. Just need a little patience

I know this has been probably asked before but would this possibly be the braided silvery thing at the bottom of the jaw part
