The5thHorseman[TK] Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Alright, I know this tittle is kind of fraudulent! Yes, this thread isn't about the R1 stormtrooper armor (you hear me complaining about it enough already) but about Jyn's stormtrooper doll. To be honest, I'm not particularly a "Rogue One" fan but of all the stormtroopers we can see in the film, this little guy is by far the best looking one. So here's my little tribute to him. The fun/tedious particularity for this one is that I tried to keep the weathering job somewhat accurate instead of fully random as I have mostly seen so far. Main reference: First I sketched it several times until I settle with a scale that felt about right. Then I modeled the doll in 3D. 3D printed it. Smoothed and preped the parts for paint. Weathered them keeping reference at hand. The finished, rigged doll. I added the two traps at the rear of the head because I think there's a good chance they might be there on the original doll. I should have added the "O II" detail to the back too though. Edit: Turns out there are no traps at the rear of the head, however no "O II" symbol either. But the equivalent of the kidney plate should be recessed instead of even with the rest. In my hand. Finally, the dreadful comparison versus the original prop. Not doing too bad. Thanks for reading, T5H. Edited June 22, 2017 by The5thHorseman 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukswrath[Staff] Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 I was just about to say there's not enough clearance between limb sections, and it's definitely a good thing we're not using SWAT level weathering standards or we may be here a while JK lol . As Christine stated, beautiful work Germain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 I'm blown away. I'll leave it for others to nitpick if they want, but I think it's amazing. I'll pay for one to take with me to Celebration and post photos with, kinda like the traveling trooper that BJ had over in IOC if you want.

As Christine stated, beautiful work Germain Yeah, I don't have enough clearance between most limbs. Rigging the doll turned out a bit more complicated than what I had expected and I made common mistake to rush it... It still makes a nice rattling sound when you shake it though! I'm blown away. I'll leave it for others to nitpick if they want, but I think it's amazing. I'll pay for one to take with me to Celebration and post photos with, kinda like the traveling trooper that BJ had over in IOC if you want. Thanks Paul. I agree that this little doll is the nice kind of thing to have around at Celebration. Unfortunately I made it as a gift so it's not going to be mine much longer and I don't really want to start the whole process again to make a second one right now.

Thanks, -Eric Oops, looks like your inbox is full Eric. So here's the PM: "Hi Eric, I've tried to take better pictures of the doll with a non-white background but it's been hard. I'm not very good at pictures and most of them turned out completely off colorwise. I managed to sort four of them better than the rest; 2 with the same background, and two with a non-white background. I hope you'll manage to make something out of them.

MoSc0ut[TK] Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 This is awesome! I so want to make one of these. It is one of my favorite props from Rogue One. Any chance the files are available so I can make one? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
