How to make a Darth Vader costume out of cardboard boxes

Step 6 Finishing touchings & fitting.

Head:

Now take your exacto knife and carefully cut out your eye holes, cutting around the inside of your eye shapes. This was really easy to do.

And if you want on the corners of the mouth cut out two small triangle shaped holes.

Now you need to make a comfortable head hole. If your box has a closed bottom, go ahead and glue it shut.

Take a bowl that fits around your head and place it on the bottom of  box. Draw around and cut out head hole with your exacto knife. - This will make it fit much more comfortably and stop it from moving around or falling to one side.

Body:

Take the same bowl and repeat step to the top of the body box. Make sure the bowl is in the center, mark with a pen & cut with exacto knife.

Then using your ruler measure from your armpit to elbow. This will work out how large you need your arm holes to be.

Then on the side of your box (Allow 1-2cm from the top) in the center, mark the length of your arm  with a pen and ruler for the arm holes. Repeat on other side & using your exacto knife carefully cut your arm holes.
 

Now try that baby on!
