I needed a break from uni assignments, so I decided to start my steampunk sith lord costume. I have begun working on an half mask. I bought some phantom half masks and spray painted one of them an aged copper colour. I pulled apart some steampunk goggles I bought last year and plan to repaint and glue the right hand goggle on to the mask. Not sure what colour yet, maybe a gold colour. I have some parts from old toys that I will repaint and glue on to the mask.

Clean mask.

Mask + Goggle.



Parts.



Let me know what you think of my efforts so far. I am open to any suggestions.

I really like the look of the mask with the goggles. It's going to be a great project with so much possibilities. Can't wait to see more.
Have fun!  Cool

Looks pretty good to me, now you need good makeup glue and some rubber scars so it looks like an implant, or is that taking it to far?

Looks awesome, I like the copper theme. I'm also working on a few steampunk accessories to coincide with my Sith costume but I'm going the silver and pewter colored route. How much are you planning on adding to your costume. Like are you going to steampunk a belt, a saber, etc.?

You can actually make your own prosthetics with liquid latex and of course the design and shape is totally up to you. Its something I've always wanted to try but haven't gotten around to it. You might be able to put the mask on and make scar tissue prosthetics for the rim of the mask, kind of like extra skin. I'm hoping to try that for my own costume but not quite there yet.

Nice Gerda!  The copper beautifully compliments the optical accessory, perfect for your steam punk Sith!  Can't wait to see more!

I'm sure about the saber yet but I will be going to steampunk other parts of the costume.

If I could make one tiny suggestion / request... please don't just stick those little gears on randomly, make em look like they do something! Cheesy

Naturally, everything will have a purpose.

I haven't had much time to do work on the mask but I have made small progress.






I'm still trying figure out how to connect the two gold parts either wire or plastic tube. I haven't glue the parts on yet.

I like the combination of aged copper, pure gold and black colours.

I'm thinking of spray paint my Aeon with the copper and gold colours, then add some black leather wrapping.
