look up ebay, there are a few fan made masks for sale now and then....as for the robes, its really customisable with a good tailor. but some of the greeblies found on the suit can be hard to find...

Thanks! The mask is the only hard part, i have a perfect cloak/cape, and an awesum set of robes i can get from a friend. As for the lightsabers, Im going to work on that.

Warning! Pic HEAVY, will require time for ALL the pictures to download! :shock:

Arc_Trooper71, if you are aspiring to make a Darth Nihilus costume and join the 501st Legion (at wherever you are :wink:), then you will like to take a look at SL 8975 (Sean Thompson)'s of the 501st Southern California Garrison's well made Darth Nihilus Costume :

Darth Nihilus Front ACTION Pose. Wicked! :twisted:

Notice the extent of the details esp. the frayed edges of his Darth Nihilus Sith Robes? :twisted:

Yah Darth Nihilus is cool, almost bought the mask off some ebayer few months back, but decided not to. lol

Here's another i found:
Darth Nihilus

Another nice choice would be Darth Revan. =)

Yeah, but Nihilus was my all time favorite Sith, in my personal opinion i think is the most powerful sith, his Lust for power destroyed entire worlds. Check out these two links, every interesting.

I wonder if the quality of the DN that is joining for the St. Patrick's Day Parade will be close to the pictures that James posted. That is really awesome and kicking.

So there will be a Darth Nihilus in the St Patrick's Day Parade? Interesting.

BTW the only person who posted the pics here = Peter and NOT James. :P

Man, what is wrong with me...must be age. Very sorry Peter, yes, of course it is you who posted the images.

Peter, could you PM me your mobile. Might be heading up to KL later this month for a meet and I'll see if I have time to hook up with you for coffee and talk about 501st stuff. The various times you've called me, your number showed up as "no caller id".

Oh Darth Nihilus? This I can do a home! All need is some black cloth, a hockey mask, and a smaaaaallll aubergine...

Just kidding. The costume is really nice... though I know that in the drawings DN's mask doesn't seem to cover his whole face but in real life it ends up looking kinda small... :)
