All Boba Fett Armor Stencils and Templates

Hi im kinda new at this and i was wondering what would be a good material to use for the armor for a beginner

Im new to this prop making also, so i started out with cardboard just to get the feel of making out of sintra or foam core.

Wow these are great! I love this site!

WOF's templates are amazing! I'm soon to get started on my scratch build.

thank you wizard of flight

Thanks for the help. making the helmet with cardboard, but I think it's a little to thick. Will make ajustments.

I made a set out of PVC pipe. Cut it to the length you need. Then cut down on one end and heat it up in the oven at 400 degrees. DON'T WALK AWAY!!!!!! In about a minute or so, the plastic will be soft enough to flatten out. Use two cookie sheets and a thick pair of gloves. Draw your temp and cut. Use a jig saw to cut and a dremmel to sand. My only thought is it feels a little thick so I used a belt sander to thin it out. I need a new camera so I do not have any good pix yet. I'll post some this weekend If I get the chance.

nice. gonna be using these soon

where can i get helmet temps ive looked almost every where. i just began on my card board armor last night workin on it right now. will post pics when i get done painting it. btw im only 11 and might need some help from the pros

thank you so much for all the hard work on these i have already cut out and formed most of the armor. moving on to the gauntlets and knees next!

What thickness Sintra works best for the armor?

What about fem armor? I want to make a suit but one that looks like the following? Any blueprints or people that have molds like this?

thanks for the awesome info, really big help.

Going to be using your template thanks for posting it WOF

This kind of goes along with my question. I assume 3mm would be good for Chest, cod, back, etc, but I do remember him saying his designs for the gauntlets are layed out for 1mm sintra (foamex)

My question is this, might sound dumb, but I want to make sure. I printed out the test page for the chest, belly, etc and had to adjust the output on the printer I was using but I got it to where the scales were exact in real measurements. Can I assume that now I can print out that particular set of templates with the scaling and be right on?

Nice resource

Massive bump here. Sorry about that.
I'm new to the forum, and new in prop/armor-making, so I just have a question: Will the templates for the knee armor and the gauntlets work with cardboard? Since I've never made anything like this before, I'd prefer to start easy and without all that heating-and-bending or whatever...

Hi great templates ! I'm in the process of making a full aluminium set of armor thanks to your templates . Any tips would be greatly appriciated , cheers !
