Ok, I looked at the photos real close now that I'm at home... TOO COOL!!!! GREAT WORK to you and your friend.

I noticed the wires that run down the back, so I guess the power is somewhere not in the mask. Also it looks like the nostrils (the wearer's eye holes) are still fully mask - no black mesh for seeing out?

Thank you.

The wires are running down at the back of the mask and the lights are powered through an external switch.

The spyholes of the mask will be enlarged and black mesh will be added behind them very soon. We're also about to brush them over with a thin coat of paint so it'll be harder to make out the wearers eyes behind the mask.

Thanks to you as well. :wink:

Don't worry, that's in the works, too.

Wow, thats is absolutly incredible! You really have something to be proud of. Are you practicing your voice imitations for Patrick Macnee? No hiding behind a vocoder for that one. :wink:

Here we have a first picture of the robe:

I know, it doesn't look as impressive or detailed as it should because of missing the dark red scale-appliqu

Man that thing is huge, but then it does cover up the chair arms also.

On an other note, I didn't look at your photos to compare the throne you have built to the one I just sent you. How do they compare to you chair, except the holes and all....darn termites...LoL

Thanks again for your kind words. :wink:

I should wear it while sitting on the throne to try out if everything fits as it should...
