Playing Star Wars. Suit with your own hands

It will soon be 40 years since the first film of the space star "Star Wars" came out on the screens. As in those, now already distant years, every new episode of this epic helps foster the ranks of its fans. That's why many boys and girls, going on a New Year's matinee, prefer to wear masquerade outfits of storm troopers, Jedi, robots. Other suits are in demand.

"Star Wars" for children is a kind of modern fairy tale, so do not be indignant that your son of ten years old does not want to portray Pinocchio or a pirate as you did in his years. Better read how to make a suit of one of the characters of the space saga about Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia. It's not as difficult as it might seem at first glance, especially if you use unnecessary clothes and have sewing skills.

In addition, by making the costumes of the heroes of the Star Wars, you can organize a fun outdoor game for children. For example, they will gladly arrange the "Clone Wars" during a trip by the whole class outside the city.

Costume clone from the "Star Wars": what will be required

Today, many boys just go crazy with the image of stormtroopers. As you know, most of them were clones, so both look the same. To create the costume of such a space soldier, you will need:

How to dress up in a clone suit

The main element of this order is a mask. Its base can be made from two canisters with a cut bottom. Then:

• Cut off the bottom of the cans and fix them perpendicular to each other, carving a notch for the neck;
• Paint with white paint;
• Decorate with black paint and electrical tape;
• To fasten the elastic band.

When the mask is ready, it remains to glue some of the "armor" from the white cardboard. Then you need to wear black leggings and a white jersey over the turtleneck. The image is supplemented with white gaiters, a wide belt-corset and massive boots. As a result, a stormtrooper costume comes from star wars (or clone).

Princess Leia's outfit

Next, you need a belt with silver fragments. It can be made by wrapping a leather belt with pieces of foil, placing them at some distance from each other.

To the dress you need to pick up high white boots and make the appropriate hairstyle:

Space Star Episodes: Darth Vader's Costume

In addition to the helmet, you will need clothes of black color: pants, blouse or shirt with long sleeves, trousers and socks. If you intend to put on the bottom of the lining to create a semblance of muscles, then pants should be a couple of sizes larger than necessary.

Next, you need to buy or ask your friends black shoes and motorcycle gloves, which are perfectly suited to create the image of the main character of the movie Star Wars.

The costume of Darth Vader must also be supplemented with a glowing sword. If the outfit is intended for a child, then it is better to make a weapon from a cylindrical foam blanket of bright color and wrap the handle with thick metal foil.

You can also make a real glowing weapon, using a flashlight, in which a powerful laser diode is embedded .

In addition, you can supplement the image with a black broad cloak.

The suit of Luke Scowyoker

If your child likes this character, then to make an outfit, like his, for a matinee is not as difficult as it may seem. For the game in Star Wars, Skywalker's costume can be changed from unnecessary clothes. It is enough to wear a kimono for judo, light gray or white trousers and a leather belt. Caviar should be wrapped up to the knees with light brown strips of tissue and complemented by a luminous sword.

You can also supplement the outfit with an old bathrobe with a hood of coffee color or sew it yourself, having cut wide sleeves.

Now you know how to look like this or that "space" suit ("Star Wars"). With your own hands to make the outfits of loved characters is not so difficult, so do not deny your child or yourself the pleasure to surprise your friends during a merry New Year or Halloween party.
