  1. Have you previously installed these on a TE HDPE stunt helmet, and if so - how? You know the flimsy ones made from the beige original material?

    I am worrying that if i use glue from a hot glue gun the helmet itself might melt, or if i use some sort of other glue the lenses might pop off as the helmet is not all that solid/rigid?

    If you have a method for attatching these lenses on my kind of helmet, i might be interested in a pair that are curved to fit!

  2. I think you will discover that a sandtrooper perhaps will cost you a bit more than a regular stormtrooper, at least if you want it to be as accurate as possible, considering the sandtroopers has to have the backpack, pauldron and the big guns! Also, i think that you should perhaps try to get your armor clean and do the weathering yourself, so you get the look you want. A lot of the personality of the sandtrooper is in its weathering. Besides it is a lot of fun to "destroy" your armor, i am currently doing that to my helmet! =) Good luck, and check out the mepd!

  3. Thats a good start! I would advice you to go to the starwarshelmets site, as there are some 360 views of some original helmets. Save them and load them onto planes in your 3d modelling program (3d studio max?) . Then you scale them to match eachothers size, and go on from there. Should be just to unwrap the model properly and print out the uvw maps, but then again you would need to scale them to the apropriate size so that the helmet could fit your head! Good luck with the project!

  4. Woohooo, then ill probably have my helmet in a week or two, i hope! =) Best wishes to you and your family, and i am sure you`ll be missed around these forums! I am glad i managed to order one of your helmets before you called it quits, im really looking forward to it! Stay safe, and once again good luck!

  5. Looking very good as always! You should not have any problems getting a buyer for this one!

    It seems that it is easier to reach you here than through PMs, just letting you know that any word on my helmet would be greatly appreciated!

    Good luck with this auction of yours!
