The wonderful Cad Bane, Jedi Bounty Hunter from the Clone Wars and the Book of Boba Fett has given all us Star Wars cosplayers a tremendous new costume to figure out. This was an incredibly time pressured build for me as I had tickets to have a photo with Cad Bane actor Dorian Kingi at comic con.
Here's a video that shows my build process from start to finish, and a list of all of the sellers and makers I used for the parts I didn't make myself are listed at the bottom of this blog.
When I kicked off this build I did an initial post to show the completed mask and I also posted some tips on how to speak like Cad Bane which you might find useful if you fancy getting fully into character.
