This is the exact lamp that I bought. It's just a nice bright LED with a positionable gooseneck, and a weighted base. The base fits perfectly in the cutout shape on the top.

I just mounted a surge protector strip in the inside of the box, and the desklamp is plugged into it along with all my hero panel lights. That way I've got one switch to turn the whole thing on.

Lighting it from the top like that is REALLY a must to get the effect.

Get a Rubies blaster and paint it.

EDIT: Here ya go. That's the cheapest option; they often dip down to around $12. Some light sanding, a coat of silver and a coat of matte Black spray (I like Tamiya) will get you a decent, if not totally accurate blaster for around $30 or so. The next step up would be an accurate blaster, such as that from a resin kit (Doopydoo), or pre-fab replica (Hyperion); these options will cost you over $100 in the end.

Are you going for approval? The Black Series helmet will have to go, fair warning!

Yes! I've used these for my costumes, particularly Darth Nihilus and a ROTS Royal Guard. You can use them for any costume that requires a "jack boot" style boot.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014OX6RFA + Black Series helmet, black boots and black gloves and a saber. Not at all 501st approvable, but it'll look really good. There are cheaper options but I'd need to know your budget.

You are definitely missing a digit. Or you might want to buy a Rubies but it would look horrible. Don't buy a Rubies.
