So the pattern I based these off of was free.They're ethe Witcher Pauldrons from Much Props (find it through YouTube ) I just redesigned them for something a little more Swarzy. They are giving me a light Darth Malgus vibe for some reason. I can't waith to strap these up and then on!
As for the voice changer…I had a bad feeling about that especially after some Google-fu was employed. If you have a smartphone you can utilize that with some apps possibly to greater effect
I think the majority of my building is done. HOWEVER, I may wish to go back and take a 3rd crack at the starkiller belt buckle now that I've leveled up my skills and tools since beginning this project.

Based on the great results with your recent gear, I'd say you'd be able to make a great V3 belt buckle. Looking forward to seeing the finished result all come together!

If I can't figure out how to rig the dad-burned things on my body, you can have them ;-)

**UPDATE** A black hoodie does not a Sith make.....But since I had it on today and I don't have any soft parts (save for the cardigan/tabards), I figured I'd try and put on the parts to see what it's looking like. The arms are posed to mind the GAP (hoodie). It's very precarious at this point. I secured the shoulders to the cardigan/tabard via Velcro but there is some more major work that needs doing.   Not sure what to think?!

…ok…Character name attempt #2
Darth/Lord Malix
could be pronounced MAHL - IKS -or- MAHL - IHSS
Mal = bad plus it can be a convoluted version of Malice but with that Swarzy twist
and it hews close to the Maul, Malgus, Malek trope.
I have some backstory ideas percolating as well…but that's for another day

This looks very nice!!! There is a Vidocq meets kendo vibe from the helmet wich makes it a bit too much for me. But it's always nice to let ennemies see their own death. The arms pieces are awesome. -1

I hear it pronounced like malice with an X. Rise, Darth Malix.

Yes, the Dark Side of the Force is strong with this one... continue to exceed expectations Lord Malix. Great things are underway, but there are greater gains to be made. Leave nothing standing your wake. You create to destroy who you were, and shall destroy all you come across to create something else entirely. A true Dark Lord of the Sith.
(yeah it works well in the proper context, good ring to it)

 Dark Lords of the Sith have ruled collectively and individually for Millenia. One afraid to wield a power is ultimately unworthy of it. Ascendancy into the light has an apex, yet descent into the darkness is endless. The Dark Side can give or take anything, based on user strength. I claim the title of Darth Prodigal Dark Lord of the Sith as my own. Through pain, our Code, and right of combat it is mine; and so shall it be defended. Follow Darth Bane's wisdom. (Only Dark Side Points Preferred.)
