Discussion on Revan Mask for the wife. To go with my WIP: Mandalore the Preserver within the Star Wars Costumes forum, part of the Star Wars Universe category; Using the original WOL Template for Boba, I adapted it
Using the original WOL Template for Boba, I adapted it into a stackable Revan Mask template. If you like it, I may adjust and share for you all. Please excuse the cell phone pictures. There is still a lot of sanding an layering to do. Hope you like it!
I have scrapped this version of the mask, using half of the dome portion from the WoL Template and adding a Outlined version from a screen cap, I have embarked on the new mask. I am about 1 sand and bondo away from priming it. I will post pics when I can.
As promised, I have taken some pictures with a base coat of primer. There are several rough spots that I am tempted to re-sand and prime; but their locations may give the mask a bit of character and seem a bit more weathered when painted. Anyways, let me know what you all think.
definitely an improvement from your first attempt. though now that it's primered i would suggest going back over with the bondo and sandpaper to smooth things out more and sharpening details. it looks like you're on the right track!
I agree wholeheartedly. Got 2 days until the weekend though! I am going to be buying a few power tools next paycheck for sure!
So, I am happy for the most part with the result. I will be investing in an airbrush kit and compressor. But until then I will continue to develop as I can.
I haven't put the visor in yet, that comes tomorrow.
Still unhappy with the first 2 mask, I set upon the 3rd. Going for accuracy. Feedback appreciated. This is unprimed, with a little sanding to do. Sorry for the phone-camera. Will be sanding down the right indent to bring it back into symmetry, I noticed an accumulation of fiberglass I will address too!

I think you might want to sharpen the edges and corners of the face then hit it with a coat of primer and post up some more pictures.
That is the plan!
3rd or so coat of primer, was still drying in this pic. 1 last round of touch ups with glazing putty to go ( Just waiting for it to dry so I can sand and prime for the last time.
Still no breather hole yet, but sans clear coat. The side by side doesn't have the mask STRAIGHT on, but I think it reflects the symmetry.
Didn't like the color match on the first, so I stripped it. Here it is repainted and after applying the Satin clearcoat, I think it mellowed the red out a bit more, I am happy with the overall result.Added the backstraps and padded it with Velvet. Feels nice and comfy! Could wear it all day! Also, after the paint dried and set it was a better red. Ignore the black specs, they are a byproduct of my stupid phone's camera. (bout 2 years old at this point)
Looks Really Good! Ive been working on a Revan Costume. Keep up the good work!
