female tusken raider

Mask may have been made of bronze which has copper or just copper that's why in other pictures you see green on most of the mask due to the aging.

Female Tuskens wore variations upon the male Tusken garb (though in some tribes, males and females wore the same), often incorporating womp rat tusks into their attire: in some tribes, their role seem to have involved maintaining the encampments while the males raided and hunted, but in other groups, perhaps more strictly nomadic in outlook, they may have lived and hunted more closely alongside their men folk. Tusken children wore unisex masks; gender-specific coverings were not allowed until after they became adults.

Of the Female Tusken Raider Mask and Other Parts needed to Make Your Own Costume.

Robert Made this mask his link is below (Very Nice Job) He also make the shawl / hood that does come with the mask.

I had him make it in Monks cloth I dyed it with 2 bottles of Rite Tan liquid Dye, Then I used tea to stain it no not yet finished I still need to dirty her up a bit..

"After looking at the Dressing A Galaxy book photos, the shawl appears to be a close (if not exact) match for monk's cloth"

Dupioni silk which washed repeatedly and then dyed with Tan Rit dye ( Liquid ) Don't use Tea to dye this it turns out pinkish.

Osnaburg (sp) cotton is a natural colored non bleached cotton and usually pretty cheap.

It also isn't smooth and clean looking maybe perfect for Female Tusken also dyed with Tan Rit dye (Liquid) Or Tea Dye it with Black Tea.

Most use a type of a slip on boot so they can wrap the bandage rags around them.

But I found that if you use a pair od Scuba-Diving Boots Made By Deep-See with a Lg zipper on the sde that this works best Both Female & Male Tusken Raider Boots

I did the Female Tusken boots the same way as the Male Tusken Boots but using different material.

I over lapped the zipper and used velcro so you can not see it once it is secured.

1 each Royal Meadow Tooling Leather 4/5 oz 2.5" x 40" you can make it 30" I did get a little to much

PREMIUM Tooling Leather CUT TO ORDER No waste! 4 to 5 oz

For The Lace I used This from Wal-Mart or You can Contact Nina & David Walker at: RowensBones@aim.com

I used Brown Shoe Shine Dye and a liitle Black Shoe dye you can get it at Walmart

This option has been put on schedule due to requests. It include the bag's decorative tusks only, as seen in the previous Option, without the bag.

This option is provided for those who don't have the luxury to spend time on building up the costume starting from the kit and the fabric, and the QFS™ (Quest For Stuff™). Basically it includes the Options 2,3,4 plus fabric parts and boots.

Note:
I just want to note that every single part she sells is hand made, and she will need a week, from the moment she receives your order to the moment it ships out to you.

As for the full complete costume (Option 6.), She will need two weeks, as it involves an added tailoring work.

A sample of her work.
