    HOW TO PUT ON DARTH VADER COSTUME WITH @MadeByAP
    The "How to Put On {insert costume here}" is a CZcams series I started a few years ago to show viewers how intricate some costumes are... I am bringing this series back, but with "more than just Star Wars" costumes (although I will absolutely still make more SW stuff too)
    I've been wanting to film a How-To video for Lord Vader for quite some time. My good friend Anthony from Made By AP had one and was willing to go on camera with me - So I put up with being called Trixie (don't ask) and we shot it!
    The description of MADE BY AP's CZcams Channel is:
    "I’m a DIY kinda guy. From woodworking to models. Cosplay to robotics. I know a little bit about a lot of things... and that makes me dangerous! Check out my adventures and subscribe today!"

  • @SandraOrtmann1976

    I cannot deny that the moment that a) you should be really tall to portray Vader convincingly and b) putting on the costume and goofing around is all good fun - but I find it fascinating that the moment that Vader's helmet goes on, all of this is gone and he becomes very serious. Great video!

  • @Anakunus
    @Anakunus Před měsícem

    Nice. It's crazy how many different parts the costume includes. The one used on this video seems to be a really good replica of the Return of Jedi version, with one difference: the eye lenses are dark red, like in A New Hope, but they are black in RotJ.
    The most crucial point about looking like Vader, though, is that the suit's wearer has to be tall. If a shortish person wears a Vader suit, no matter how well made, the end result looks goofy because it then seems like Vader has too big a head in relation to his body. Anthony here fortunately seems to be just barely tall enough to cosplay Vader convincingly. Well done, gentlemen.

    Great suit. Question tho, seemed like you were struggling to see him hand you the lightsaber.....how far are your eyes away from the lenses inside? My first liner setup in my Porty was the same way......moved my eyes from 2.5” from lenses to 1” and made a huge difference in vision. Just curious :)

      Yeah, you have to put it together piece by piece. It can take a long time...18 months or more. Expect to pay about $3500 for a decent Vader, or more ($5000 is not unreasonable). It's worth it when you visit sick kids in the hospital and they feel the excitement of the Star Wars universe.

    • @DesertVader
      @DesertVader Před 3 lety +4

      It’s not really about being “perfect”. It’s about doing Vader justice. Vader is an iconic figure that almost everyone recognizes and should do it proud and authentic. Many 501st Vaders are perfectly fine with those who enjoy wearing a Rubies at a comic con or whatever, to each their own :)
