Darth Vader is a central character in the Star Wars saga, appearing as one of the main antagonists in the original trilogy and as the main protagonist in the prequel trilogy. The character was created by George Lucas and numerous actors have portrayed him. His appearances (as both Vader and Anakin) span all six Star Wars films, and is an important character in the expanded universe of television series, video games, novels, literature and comic books.
Vader's mask was originally designed by Ralph McQuarrie as part of Vader's spacesuit, and not intended to be part of the regular costume. Brian Muir sculpted Darth Vader's costume based on McQuarrie's design. Vader's known for being black colour.
Lucas' vision of Darth Vader's design is to have a cape that fluttered in the wind and a wide-brimmed helmet similar to the headgear of a medieval samurai. The costumiers, Bermans Nathans and John Mollo, who completed the character with elements from four separate departments: a monk's cloak from the ecclesiastical division, a World War II German helmet and gas mask from the military department, a leather undersuit from the motorcycle department, and a metal breastplate from the medieval section
However, rather than normal black colour mask, there are also some interesting design of this iconic mask. Below is some of the modified Vader's mask which I have to say quite interesting as long you are not hardcore fan of Darth Vader, which you will find all these mask is insulting to the master himself...
