Doesn't look to be an easy build, but should look excellent when done

Thanks. i want to make the ghost version that appears before Yoda on korriban. I think i may have to burn the robes to make them looked singed, ButnI'm not sure how i will make the costume glow with leds and make it look like its transparent yet on fire. Any suggestions?

I think I may get a silicone Fx mask to wear underneath the helmet. If you see in the Clone Wars Concept art, his human neck is exposed but it looks either aged or rotting. Maybe something like this?

Actual fire is typically simulated through LEDs and lights from what I've seen through cosplay over the years. To make it look like Bane in the series would be a daunting task for even a movie studio with a prop department at their disposal, and then in the end CGI would probably be used for all the actual fire effects. That being said, I found this video for you:
Also this one, it's a kit for a flame ball for your hand but you can see the effect of LEDs under paper and how cool it looks:
Hope that gives you some ideas. Bane is more or less covered in not only flame but mostly burning embers. Short of an intricate LED system under your outfit I don't think there is any way to really pull that off.

I think I just found an inspiration for the smoldering fire around Darth Bane's body: https://www.etsy.com/listing/515470467/smoldering-fire-prop?ref=related-3

Just as I'm making this post you found it, haha. How to make it is below. They need a power source but this is pretty much the effect you are looking for: http://www.instructables.com/id/Burning-Embers-Halloween-prop/Spray foam insulation is like something from an alien planet as it is messy and expands like an alien creature but as far as texture goes it is very unique. Using this method would probably require you to make some kind of armor (like thin EVA foam) then put the lights on top and spray a little spray foam on top of the lights. As far as a power source for the lights that is a bit out of my league.

My pleasure, yeah the power for it is going to be the toughest thing to work out me thinks. Definitely something that will take some tinkering. Best of luck with it, I can't imagine there are too many Darth Bane costumes out there so you'll be trailblazing.

That looks both daunting and impressive DV^^ Sounds like you've got a good start though If I may suggest: for the armor you might want to talk with Therion Jinn; he's displayed some downright awesome armor and I am sure could provide some useful info\advice. This looks interesting; good luck

I'm a pretty dedicated cosplayer, but you wouldn't catch me dead wearing silicone arms and a mask with armor on top of it. That sounds like one of the circles of hell I'm destined for.
