Thank you Paul, I appreciate your feedback

Hi there. I just wanted to jump-in and address some of the comments that have been posted regarding my FOTK Ep8 Helmet. The parts that you see in the previously posted photo are our pre-production parts that were designed for easy 3D printing. Any of you who know design would understand that when you are designing something you are also thinking of the end result and materials that you are going to use. I 3D print all my props at TDK Props, so they are designed from that stand point. We followed the same process with our Death Trooper helmet, which again was designed in parts for ease of 3D printing and painting. There was no physical bucket in existence at the time so we designed from scratch using ref pics and Hot Toys figures, four-months before the movie was released. Our FOTK Ep8 helmet was designed in exactly the same way. So the earlier posted pic shows how our bucket goes together NOT how it will be molded and SOLD. The helmet that is for sale is in three parts, Main Helmet, separate nose piece and the aerator. As I see it, the end product I am looking to sell is no different than any other of the fan made helmets currently in market. All have been devised from reference material available but our development process may be different. You would have to confirm with them how they work. I would also like to highlight that there are a couple of design elements that are unique to my helmet. As you can see the pointy chin, teeth, underside around the front and the lenses are all different shapes to the Anovos EP8 bucket that they are selling. This helmet was designed six-weeks ago from ref pics that everyone else had. We had worked hard to make this as accurate as possible and I think we are very close. I hope this helps clarify things. Cheers Tom

Jim Awesome work as always this is looking great, can I ask what material did you use for the ribbed soft parts in the Shore Trooper and the Death Trooper and did your tailor sew all the individual lines in it and did he use a wadding for the backing?

I know my modelling skills aren't the best. The mesh is all screwed up and i am going to start again. It was scaled of the Hot Toys 1/6th back pack so I hope theirs is correct??

Hey Guys, Here are some pics of my 3D printed TFA backpack, not 100% happy with the original 3D model I am trying to work on it. This is for a mate of mine, he has had to do some work on it before painting.

Awesome Build Clint, and thank you so much for sharing your files
