Even when he turns Sith, but minus the yellow eyes and very dark color around them unless I added them with makeup.

But you know what the sad thing is, I'm a girl!

I look like Darth Vader!

And no, I'm NOT kidding. I really do look like him, not even needing makeup.

Interesting.
My costume is EP3 Anakin.. Besides the costume I do not resemble him though.

If I had a digital camera I could show you what I looked like, but instead I will describe: Imagine Annakin's face when he has the long hair down, now make it slightly rounded and more feminine. And there you go. I can even do the Anakin pout, and if I have my hair going the way his does, I look pretty convincing. Its kind of weird when I see Annakin on the screen and think, thats what I would look like had I been born male. If I did dress up as him at a convention, I would be going as Annie Skywalker or Lady Vader.

They have girls that dress "anakinish". Some of them use different variations of Anakin's suit.
