Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi, Darth Vader replica costume

made from scratch movie costume

This is a replica of Vader's costume as seen in Return of the Jedi. All of the detail was and still is painstakingly reproduced to the  minute level to achieve the most accurate costume possible. Not every detail is quite right and I still consider this an on going work in progress to achieve more accuracy. 

The helmet and armor are authentic casts made in fiberglass and finished with a high end 2 two toned paint scheme. 

The suit, cod, belt, gloves and boots are real leather.

Cape is 100% heavy weight coat wool with poly liner and leather collar. Robe is 100% wool as well.

Chest box is resin with metal rods. Belt boxes and buckle are metal with powder coating. 

And the shins are abs plastic although heavily worn since I bought them in 2012.
