The Grave Tusken game model from the video game Jedi Knight featured a pair of regular black gloves, so I bought a pair to use for this costume. Nothing else can really be said about that and you can stop reading this and move on to the photos below and their descriptions. Are you still reading this? I've run out of clever things to say. Just start reading below.
Preparing the gloves
These are the two gloves that I bought, one for the left hand and one for the right hand, in case you didn't already know.
I actually bought two pairs of black gloves for this costume since I didn't like the first ones that I bought, but eventually I thought that the newest gloves were too thick for this costume and that I could simply just make the first pair smaller, so now it seems I didn't have to buy that other pair of gloves anyway, but those will most likely be used for something else anyway. Feel free to use any ideas from this tutorial, and good luck preparing your own Grave Tusken gloves.

Since these gloves were somewhat too bulky for the rest of the costume, the lining was removed to make them thinner.

The glove lining will probably be used for something else later on in the future.
New seams were made all over the inside of the gloves and fingers to make them fit tighter against my hands.
Here you can see how much smaller the gloves look after the previous convertion.
The ends of each glove were held under very hot water for some while and were then stretched straighter and longer.
Some obligatory dirt and crap was also smeared out all over the gloves to make them look nicely weathered.
