Boba Fett ROTJ Helmet Stencils

Added the stencils for the Cheeks to the first post. It was almost the most complex stencils done so far (next to the PP2 dome) and it looks amazing.

Great work bro but I do have just one question do you ever sleep cause you are just a machine turning out these stencils.

I've seen you're doing the "original" helmet as it was at the Heilmann pics (screen accurate) instead of how it's actually, that's perfect! Well done as always Rafal

Rafal
Thanks so much.
I'll be using these on my GMH.

Dude you have done future generations proud , nice work I hope you added a few sneak R-F's in each set of templates then every one who uses them will have RF on there helmet

Wow u sir are a machine...just a note the grey isnt just grey its misted grey not in one solid mist either

Thanks! I sleep as much as all human being do. But being a machine... Maybe I'm some kind of a Terminator.

That was my goal. Some areas are hard to read because of the dark Heilmann shots but with the on set and promotional pre-damaged images is easier to see all the details.

You're welcome! With you skills I know this will be a perfect hit.

Thanks, James! No, there's no RF's in the stencils. But when someone will use these stencils, subconsciously will imprint RF on the helmet.

Thanks, F4R! I'm not a paint expert, but if I do the stencil in a way to replicate the grey mist then I'm sure there will be lot of confused people.

you are awesome raf - just finished my ESB stormtrooper lid, and was thinking about a ROTJ boba lid for my next project - this could really give me at a nice starting point. Youre a true gentleman

Thanks a lot, Jayvee! I hope in one week to finish the dome stencil and then the color separation.

Hey bud I was only letting guys know so they have an idea how to replicate that area

My mistake! I didn't read with care what you wrote.

I probably said it kinda bluntly which may have gave the impression it was directed at you? Good stuff though...I like it, will deffinately help

I know that your intentions are good and constructive so I didn't take it too hard in the first place. But sometimes it's easy to misunderstand someone if you read too fast.

Thanks for all your hard work! I'm looking forward to painting my new GMH in this scheme. I've painted several ESB helmets in the past, but never ROTJ, so this will help immensely!

Thanks for the kind words! The dome will be ready in a few days and I can say from now that this will make a hell with your lifes.

Wow! ROTJ is one of the few helmets I have not painted yet, and eventually I hope to complete my Boba collection with a nice version of this one.
I will definitely refer to your amazing templates when I reach that point!

Let me be the first to ask for this to become a STICKY THREAD!!!!

Wow! Thank you for the kind word, superjedi! This thread won't be a sticky... I think this will be added to the following thread All Boba Fett Helmet Stencils And Templates compiled by Rich D.

Finally, the dome is done! The firts post is updated with the Dome stencil.
I think I got the stencil sickness from this work... This is the most elaborate work from all the stencils I made and is the most beautiful (altough I'm not a ROTJ fan).
Enjoy!

AWESOME! Thank you from us ROTJ fans.

Thanks! This dome is the most detailed from all of my stencils and the paint will be hard to replicate even for the pro's.

Added to the first post the Dome Top Area and the Helmet Perspective View to guide you on your quest with the helmet painting.

you sir are out of control...good stuff as usual

Thanks! Out of control... in an organized way! I'm glad you like it.

Just updated the first post with the Red Face & Keyhole, Back Plates and Cheek color separation files. In a few days I will do the Dome color separation files. Then... We'll see.

Good stuff.. you've made allot of peoples lives easier.

Wow, how fast the time is passing by... It seems that I can't stay in one place! Added the Dome color separation files to the first post.

Thanks a lot, Spideyfett! I hope so...

sorry to drag up an old post, but you have any tips for adjusting these to fit on a MR size helmet?

Sadly I don't have a MR or MR based helmet, but I think it's slightly bigger then the original helmet(s). I would suggest to print a stencil then try to match it with the helmet part. If the stencil is bigger, try to reduce the print page percentage, and do the matching again. If the stencil is smaller, then increase the percentage of the stencil. Do this with every part of the stencils and you'll be fine.

The MR helmets are roughly 12% larger than the original helmets.

after four attempts with trial and error and the free transform tool in photoshop i got the rear left panel to match up. are things stretched and skewed? a bit. but i figure the scaling for the helmet will make up for that a bit.

thanks, top work!

The first post was updated with archived separation files in JPG format for those who want to edit or alter the stencil's dimensions.

This is all really great stuff RF!
Is there any way we can put all of RF's stencils into one thread and sticky them?? I think it would be very beneficial for everyone that way

Thanks, RKD! You are too kind! But thanks to Rich D. all my helmet templates/stencils and the helmet decals are linked to this 'sticky' thread ==> All Boba Fett Helmet Stencils and Templates while my armor stencils are linked to this 'sticky' thread ==> All Boba Fett Armor Stencils and Templates.
