"Okay let's get started on making another figure. Now this is an example, it may not turn exactly out like this but then again this is art. This is a Darth Vader. This my friends has the best feature any fan can hope for. So I'm going to show you how to make this. So we would get started with some white. Now I know you are a little confused there is no white on Darth Vader costume but you would be happy to find out what this pleasant surprise is. So we just fold this around like that the same circle technique that I have showed you before. When you think it is about the right size, fold it down like this and pinch and back. Now just cut off any excess white and now we have the head. Now let's pick out some scrap for chrome batty and we will get started. So I'm just going to start by wrapping this around his neck. Then we will fold this down to make his body. Now remember that Darth is a little bit taller than people in that big clunky armor. So if you have your Luke Skywalker try measuring him a little bit and making sure he is a little bit taller. Now you have his basic body we would just turn this down like that and start wrapping it to fill that in. We will fill in the rest later. Now we will get started on beyond, so we take one black pipe cleaner. Measure it up to his shoulders right about there and using the pinch technique we will pinch it in. Then turn, fasten, and then twist. Don't be afraid to make the arms a little bit longer. So now that we have that part done all good Star Wars need legs. So let's get started on that. (oh dear that happens a lot) So let's get started with this, this is a different technique for the legs. If you have any excess of that just fold that in like that. That will make the pelvis. Now you just fold that in right about there so we have a little extra feet. Then we just pull that in. Just like that. Now I will get started on the armor. "
