My Snow Clone Scratchbuild!

Absolutely Gav! I need to find something suitable for it. I'm gonna hunt through some old old sheets or pillow cases in the week to do some mock-ups and try and get a working pattern for the COWL. LOL! My wife will love me for that! :D

As for new pics, I did some work on the dome COWL today to make the flare more prominent. Here are the pics of the new version. Looks much better now. Still some tweaks here but it's getting there.

Lastnight I added a trim that goes around the cheeks and visor. it's quite subtle in some of the screen grabs but defenitely there. It's in need if a little filling and sanding now but it adds a nice bit of depth to the faceplate.

Mostly. :)

Gav pointed out a small problem with the flare that I'll do today and Brian/StormtrooperGuy pointed out an error with the three strips on the mouth. Again I'll do that today. :)

Then some small detail parts and I. Think that's it!!
 
I think this is turning out awesome so far. I just have one thing to point out and i hope you dont mind. I like getting other peoples thoughts on my builds just because sometimes as a builder, i look at a prop that im working on for hours on end and i tend to overlook certain things.

Anyways, i noticed that the T visor on the helmet has a certain curve, as well as the outer helmet along the brow line. I thought for a bit that it was an illusion because of the angle of the shot but after looking at a few pics, im not so sure that it is.

If that was the case, then the same would apply to a standard CW clone helmet, right? I'll let the pics do that talking........

If it was a visual illusion, then the same would apply to your helmet and as you can see in this picture, it does not.

You know, im only trying to help. Giving out the same help i ask for when im doing a helmet build.

BTW, you can call me EVO or Andy (Buddy?)
 
Skupilkinson like what your doing great job.(y)
i'd have to agree with Evo on the curve, based on the pic's.
