Other Bounty Hunter Sabine Rebels First build

CaptainPhill

New Hunter
This is my first build. I used EVA foam for the armor and A pep file and bondo for the helmet. This is my first of many so I made a ton of learning errors. Any advice is always helpful thanks.

All right folks. I have been working hard on finishing this ASAP. Here is my progress. I need to just tweak some parts here and there. More than willing to take some advice and criticism in order to grow and get better.

I am working on the range finder now and then putting it together.
 
I sent you a PM.

Astounding work if this is actually your first build. GREAT JOB!

Do you mind listing the paints etc. you used and how you sealed/painted the EVA? That checkerboard right shoulder has got to be a PITA. :)

I love it.
 
Awesome work. Exactly what I plan to do for my daughters Sabine Costume. Since I'm all new to mando helmets, I was hoping you could share info on what pep file you used
Thanks in advance :)
 
The helmet was a pep from bo katan that was modified. Keep close attention to the rim, cheeks and the ears. These are where the main modifications needed to take place. Use many reference pics. I didnt and made many mistakes. The visor. lens is from office dept. It is a full face shield replacement. Here is the ink for the helmet.

The armor I made using templates that I made using refrence pictures and card stock. I used EVA foam that I had shapped with a heat gun and sealed it with the heat gun as well. I used 6 coats of plasti dip to covert the foam. This helps eliminate the cracking of the paint because the plasti dip is flexible. I used the spray version but they have a paintable version.

The paints that I used are

Rust- oleum ultra cover Primer /gray 269441
Rust- oleum ultra cover + primer/ Gloss real orange 249095
Rust- oleum ultra cover/ clear gloss 249117
Rust- oleum Bright Coat Metallic finish / aluminum 7715
Krylon color master paint and primer / gloss rich plum 51914
Krylon Color master purple gloss / 51913

Clothing was purchased at walmart and the armor on the chest and shoulder was velcro'd on and the elbow and knee pads were attached using straps.

Hello, I use Bo Katan's pepakura file for the Helmet, since I finish it then I cut it to the shape of the helmet of Sabine
