Here is the finished costume! It premiered at Comic Fiesta 2007! Much thanks to everyone who has helped to make it, especially redroyalguard! Nihilusgs, I am GLAD to have got you STARTED on your Darth Nihilus costume quest, when you FIRST approached me on the evening of 30 June at MySciFiFan Outpost. Just so happen that I was there with JDream taking Lord Wudious' 501st LEGION membership application pictures.
I clearly recall your bright carrot top colored hair style that you were sporting on that night itself. ;D Very SOON your journey to the Dark Side will be COMPLETE when you are officially a member of the 501st MALAYSIA-BRUNEI OUTPOST...

Hey Nihilusgs, your costume's not bad, though I think your hood should be bigger a bit and cover more over your mask.

The first pics looked a bit strange because you tied the hood tails behind your neck... kinda looked like an old makcik going to the pasar! The third pic is really nice, with the hood tails in proper place... Hey Nihilusgs, your costume's not bad, though I think your hood should be bigger a bit and cover more over your mask. Yeah,I guess it wasnt worn right. NihilusGS, I've posted these COMPARISON pictures from the FlagShip Eclipse Darth Nihilus picture reference library to clearly illustrate what RedRoyalGuard, Jaden Lee and I mean.
CORRECT Shape of Darth Nihilus whimple and Mask from the FRONT, LEFT, BACK and RIGHT (in clockwise order)
compared with the ACTUAL (and inaccurate) shape of your Whimple that you wore during Comic Fiesta 2007
Potrait View of the CORRECT Shape of Darth Nihilus whimple and Mask, from the side :
compared with the way how your Darth Nihilus whimple looks like and the way you wore it during Comic Fiesta 2007 :
It is understandable that the said mistake occurred, taking into account you did not have the benefit of a mirror or assistance from experienced costumers who know the correct shape of Darth Nihilus' whimple and mask as I or RedRoyalGuard do.

One more thing,the way the whimple was worn was following the Champions of the Force version. Such as in these pictures below. But yeah,I didnt have a mirror or anyone who knew what Darth Nihilus even looked like to help me put on the costume.

One more thing,the way the whimple was worn was following the Champions of the Force version. Such as in these pictures below. I've revisited the FlagShip Eclipse Darth Nihilus picture reference library after my post to study the overall CORRECT shape of the Champions of the Force version of the whimple. Here this EXCELLENT Artwork for the Champions of the Force RPG game box, which I will be expecting you to submit as a reference in addition to the picture above that you've posted :
The crest of the Darth Nihilus - Champions Of the Force version whimple may look "flat" when viewed at the side, but it is RAISED when viewed at the front. Whatever it is, just ensure that you get the SHAPE of your whimple CORRECT when you take your 501st Legion membership application pictures that we've been discussing about. Let me know at the e-mail address that I've given you.

Well... since I'll be making a new mask for him, there's always a chance to improve on the design and construction!

Well... since I'll be making a new mask for him,... As an Upgrade for his existing Darth Nihilus mask that was damaged by that JERK during Comic Fiesta, I presume?

You can only hope that RedRoyalGuard makes you a replacement mask that is STRONGLY REINFORCED against the damaging IMPACT likely to be caused by such similar disasters in the future. Also NEVER ever let pesky and destructive kids go near your Darth Nihilus mask again....
