T-Jay[TK] Posted November 20, 2025 Author Report Posted November 20, 2025 Today I will cover the full helmet. Starting with the blast shield... After breaking off the fiddly flashlights a few times, I decided to postpone the addition of the even more fiddly radio antenna to the very last step of this build. Dang, this is all so tiny. However, the helmet is the most complex part and is now done - except for the breathing tube and weathering which will both follow later. 3 Quote
T-Jay[TK] Posted November 23, 2025 Author Report Posted November 23, 2025 Ha, thanks Glen. Today we finally get to the armor. Not sure how it is going to look like, just playing with a few ideas. To build some tension, I will start at the bottom and work my way upwards… Inspired by the Magma Trooper: Inspired by Captain Rex: Inspired by Sergeant Kreel: That wire will end either in the hole of the TK back plate, or in a back pack. We’ll see… Enjoy your weekend. 1 1 Quote
T-Jay[TK] Posted November 26, 2025 Author Report Posted November 26, 2025 Now it is time for some weathering. Yes, it appears to be a lot but that works in this tiny size. When this figure is placed inside my display case, the weathering should still be visible. Equipped with a DLT-20A, it now looks like this: Noticed the injury on the knee? The figure looks pretty cool so far, but of course I haven’t forgotten @TKSpartan and @Bulldog44, asking for ‘a badass weapon and a backpack’. But not just any backpack, it had to be something special. In the last photo you can also see the E-11 blaster, being added to the Jump Pack’s left side. Talking about blasters, I had to find something special for this action figure… This suited much better and looked good enough to deserve the term ‘badass weapon’. And here is how it looks all together: I really love how this turned out in the end. It now reminds me on the ‘Heavy Infantry Mandalorian’ although this was not my inspiration. Anyway, to me it’s good enough to place it next to my custom helmet (photos to follow) and give an impression, of how the full Trooper might look like. Hope you had some fun reading this build. 1 2 Quote

T-Jay[TK] Posted November 29, 2025 Author Report Posted November 29, 2025 Okay, I had promised photos with the figure next to the helmet, but first there is one last modification. My display case also houses a Boba Fett figure. The flames from the Jet Pack were left over... They fly now! They fly now? They fly now. The radio antenna was finally added and as a last step I carefully put everything in the display case. And for those who want to see it, here is the full display case. Thank you for reading and have a nice weekend. 2 1 Quote
