Hey guys thought I'd share my attempt at a force awakens trooper helmet...started out with the Rubies two piece helmet and cut it to pieces to try and make it a little more accurate...sculpted replacement parts and made a clip from ABS...hope to be molding up within the next couple of weeks.<br>
Hey guys i'm looking for some help in sourcing a few parts for a helmet i'm modifying..any help sourcing the clips on the helmet and the mic tip (if that's what it is?) and bubble lenses although I read that normal trooper lids ones will do? I think I have found some honeycomb mesh for the mouth area but again if there is something known that ois accurate i'd appreciate any help
I sculpt in plastercine and have used the freezer to harden it up and it works well...just make sure it is smoothed out as best you can and chill it for a while before the plaster goes on...
Hey Greg amazing work! I vac form myself and personally I prefer styrene/hips over abs just because I find it does form better that said abs is more robust...I get nice detailed pulls with 2-3mm styrene without having to negative form for fine detailed masks...abs above 2mm can get a bit tricky without pre warming but that is only my experience.
